Medication
The following guidelines concerning the administration of medication during school hours are reflective of both Board policy and state law. In order for school staff to allow students to take any medication at school, the appropriate forms must be on file with the school nurse.
Medication authorization forms, as well as unsupervised self-administration of medication forms for asthma inhalers and emergency medications, are available below in a printable format or at all school and district offices. All forms must be complete, indicating the name of the student, name of the medication, dosage, time of administration and any other information requested to ensure the safe administration of medication. The prescription and self-administration forms also require a physician's signature.
These forms, along with a physician's signature, must be updated at the beginning of each school year. All completed forms and medications must be brought to the school nurse. Please do not send medication to school with your child. Parents should bring all medications to and from school to ensure the safety of all students. The medications must be in the original container with the name of the student displayed. The prescription bottle must have a current label in place.
