Medications
Please follow the following procedures when sending medication with your child to school:
- Any student that will take a non-prescription medication during school hours must have a medication authorization form filled out and signed by the parent/guardian prior to medication dispension. Be sure to include child's name, name of medication, amount to be taken, and time to be given.
- Prescription medications need a physician's signature prior to medication dispension.
- All medications must be sent to school in the original pharmacy container with the student's name printed on the label as well as the medication and dosage to be administered.
- All medications must be brought to the health office before school begins in the morning.
- If your child carries an inhaler/Epi-pen with him/her (in backpack, pocket, desk, or locker), a written permission form, including student, parent and physician signature, must be kept on file in the health office.
- Medication authorization form must be signed by a parent/guardian AND
the PHYSICIAN.
If there are any questions or concerns please contact the health office at your child's school.
