REMINDERS FROM YOUR NURSES
Ensuring the health and well-being of your child at school is a top priority for us. If your child requires medication during the school day or may need medical procedures administered by our dedicated nurses, please take note of the following essential reminders:
Complete Necessary Forms: Take the time to carefully fill out all the medical forms sent home by the school. These forms gather critical information about your child's medical condition, allergies, and any prescribed medications or treatments.
Provide Medications: If your child relies on medication during school hours, please supply the school nurse with the prescribed medication. Ensure that it remains in its original container, clearly marked with your child's name, dosage instructions, and any pertinent details. Regularly check the medication's expiration date.
Emergency Contact Information: Maintain up-to-date emergency contact details with the school. It's essential that the school has accurate phone numbers for you and other responsible adults who can be reached promptly in case of a medical emergency.
Open Communication: Establish transparent lines of communication with the school nurse and relevant school staff. Keep them informed of any alterations in your child's medical condition, medication regimen, or specific instructions they should follow.
Medical Procedures: If your child requires medical procedures or treatments while at school, collaborate closely with the school nurse to ensure proper training and provision of necessary medical equipment or supplies.
By adhering to these guidelines, you contribute significantly to your child's health and safety during their time at school. Our partnership with you and the school's healthcare professionals creates a secure and nurturing learning environment for your child throughout the academic year.
