Medication Information

Please remember: 
A prescription label or physician's signature is required for all prescription medication brought to school.  All medication must also be in the original container.  If  the medication is prescription, the label must include (1)the name of the student, (2) name of medication, (3) dosage, (4)instructions and (5)  name and phone number of physician. 

Non prescription medication which is required during school hours (such as the Tylenol) also needs to be in original containers and each medication must have a separate Medication Assistance form.

Teachers may not store or dispense medication from their classroom. If  a student whose medical protcol requires that the medication be nearby at all times (such as an epi-pen, nebulizer, inhaler.), then a separate form for the medical protocol and provisions for security are necessary. We are happy to work with your physician office or other medical professional to provide this.    The staff may also  need to be trained. We are all certified in First Aid, CPR and AED use but we rely on parents to give us the specifics about medication, oxygen or other needs relating to the child. This includes what to look for in   symptoms, signs and severity in case of emergency.  

Being happy, healthy and safe is important to us!
