Parents/guardians should determine, with their child's health care providers, if medication scheduling can be adjusted to avoid administering medications during school hours.
If it is necessary to give medications during school hours, have your health care provider complete AND sign the prescribed medication form (on left side).
This form must be submitted each year and again, if any changes to the prescription are made.
It must be handed into the school nurse BEFORE medication(s) can be given at school.
Parents/guardians must bring the medication to school. Medication may not be sent to school with students. An exception to this would be select emergency medications, including inhalers/epi-pens.
The medication must be in an original pharmacy-labled package. Ask your pharmacy for a "school" labled bottle to be kept at school.
