Medicines
The office staff can keep and administer some prescribed medication, after a meeting to discuss and agree a Health Care plan for your child. Inhalers for children with asthma can be kept at school and administered to your child when needed.
Please complete a Medical Consent form if your child needs to bring in an inhaler or a health care plan has been agreed to administer a prescribed medication to your child.
Return the form to the office with the medication. Mark the medication with:
- your child’s name,
- the dosage and
- times to be administered.
Only adults should deliver and collect medication from the office. Children should not keep any medication or administer themselves.
Inhalers
- Please tell your child’s class teacher if they have an inhaler in school.
- Ensure you supply us with an inhaler that is in date.
Please contact us if you have any concerns about medication. We deal with all enquiries in confidence.
