School Nurse
HEALTH SERVICES
A registered professional nurse is on duty each day. The school nurse is responsible for assessment, intervention and management of health related concerns in the school setting. This service is not to replace the care your child gets from your regular doctor or clinic, but will provide:
MEDICATION PROCEDURES
Prescription medicines must be in the original container. A parent's permission slip must also accompany the medication. Prescription medications that are classified as controlled substances must be delivered to the nurse's office by an adult. Students are not permitted to carry medications or self-administer medications at school. The school nurse may administer certain over-the-counter medications after a nursing assessment. If you think your son or daughter suffers from a headache, cramps, or allergies during the school day and would benefit from over-the-counter medicine such as: Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Sudafed, please contact the nurse and furnish a written permission slip to be placed on file in the nurse's office. Students, age 18 and older, may legally give their own authorization for medicine.
EMERGENCY INSTRUCTIONS
The nurse maintains health information on each student including: immunizations, health concerns/conditions, allergies, current medications, emergency contacts, and individualized emergency plans written with the parent. Please contact the nurse's office whenever there is a change in health status or emergency contact numbers.
CLINIC HOURS
Students are encouraged to visit with the nurse before and after school or during lunch. It will be necessary to obtain a hall pass from a teacher in order to visit the nurse during class time. Medications are usually administered during lunch break.
SICK CALL
If the nurse determines, after a nursing assessment, that a student should not be at school, a parent, guardian, or an emergency contact will be notified.
Please contact the nurse to discuss your son or daughter's individual needs and to obtain medication permission forms.
