Parents should be able to make an informed decision on whether their child should participate in any visit and will need to:
- Provide the Visit Leader with emergency contact number(s)
- Give consent or inform the establishment if they decide to opt out
- If necessary, give the Visit Leader additional up to date information about their child’s emotional, mental/psychological and physical health
- Prepare their child for the visit, especially when the establishment has identified the need for different clothing, rules and eating arrangements
