Most children spend a significant portion of their time in daycare or at school. CSTE's Environmental Health in School workgroup identified these days/hours as a setting for possible "occupational" exposures. The CSTE EH in School Workgroup created and validated this triage note query for "school-related" emergency department (ED) visits using ESSENCE.

Search Terms:

“in school” or “at school”

“in recess” or “at recess”

“in daycare” or “at daycare” with either daycare or day care, as long as they don’t explicitly state they are “not in/at daycare”
