Medication Policies
No child is to carry medications on his or her person or transport them on the bus. Concerns regarding epi-pens or inhalers should be communicated to Ms. Mitzi Bishop in the clinic.
To insure the safety of all students at our school, the following guidelines must be followed when medications are sent to school.
1. ALL medications (prescription and non-prescription) must be taken directly to the clinic for safe keeping. The medication must be brought in by a parent or guardian only. Students are not allowed to bring medicine to school. DO NOT SEND MEDICINE ON THE SCHOOL BUS!
2. ALL medications (prescription and non-prescription) must be accompanied by a NOTE FROM THE PARENT. (The note should include the following information: Full name of student, name of medication, time to be given, amount to be given, date(s) to be given.) Medications required for more than one day must be accompanied by an Administration of Medication Request form. This form can be picked up in the clinic.
3. ALL medications must be in the ORIGINAL CHILD-PROOF CONTAINER. Prescription medication must be in labeled PRESCRIPTION BOTTLE with correct dosing information. MEDICATIONS STORED IN ENVELOPES, BAGGIES, ETC. WILL NOT BE GIVEN.
4. Administration of prescription and over-the-counter medicine (even for a short period of time) is discouraged. Parents should check with their physician regarding the need for medications to be administered during school hours. Medications prescribed for three times daily can be given before school, after school, and at bedtime. THERE SHOULD BE NO NEED TO SEND MEDICATION THAT ONLY HAS TO BE GIVEN ONCE OR TWICE DAILY.
5. Medication must be picked up at the end of the year by a parent (guardian) or it will be disposed of by the school.
6. The clinic does NOT provide Tylenol, Advil, antacids, cold medications or any other type of medication for students.
If you have any questions about these procedures, please call the GES Clinic at (770) 682-4158.
