Clinic

Severe Allergies, Asthma, Diabetes, and Seizures

If your child takes any medications (or has emergency medications) for these conditions, please let me know as an action plan may be required. Action Plans must be updated and signed each school year by a physician. We will not be able to use one from last year.

Medication Administration

For student safety, parents/guardians should bring all medications to and from the clinic. Please do NOT send medications with students . Controlled medications will be counted by the nurse. Documentation of the counts will be made with the parent and nurse.

IMPORTANT: NO LOOSE PILLS, TABLETS, OR CAPSULES WILL BE ACCEPTED.

Prescription: A prescription medication MUST be in the original container and properly labeled by the pharmacy. All prescription medications must be accompanied with a Medication Administration Form filled out by the parent AND signed by a physician.

Over the counter (OTC): The medication must be in the original container with directions on the label. A Medication Administration Form must be filled out and signed by the parent only. HOWEVER, if the OTC medication needs to be given more than 3x a week, the dosage is different than the FDA package instructions, or more than a total of 10 doses have been administered, then a physician signature is REQUIRED for the medication to be given during school.

Parent Meetings

If you would like to discuss your child’s care or medication in detail, please email me to schedule a dedicated time to meet in person or speak on the phone.

Borrowed Clothing

Kids from all grade levels come to the clinic for a change of clothing for various reasons (falling in mud, bathroom accidents, etc.). We try to loan out clothes when possible. The clinic needs boys and girls clothing in every elementary age, especially pants/shorts/socks as well as clean/unused underwear.

Kindergarten & 1st Grade - Please keep an extra change of clothes (including socks and shoes) in your child's backpack just in case. In order for us to help other children, please wash and return any borrowed clothing (except underwear) to the clinic.
