Medication Procedure
Parents should make every effort to schedule a student's medication regime at home. However, we recognize that this may not always be possible. Please adhere to the following.
Prescription Medication requires the following:
A written note from the physician. Note: THE PRESCRIPTION LABEL IS NOT A WRITTEN ORDER. The note may be delivered by the parent/guardian with the properly labeled medication, or faxed to the Nurse's office. Our fax number is 424-1296.
When to keep your child home
Please keep your child home if he or she has a fever of 100.0 degrees or higher. Also, please keep your child home for at least 24 hours after his or her fever is gone (without the use of fever-reducing medication).
Hearing and Vision Screenings:
These screenings will be performed annually for fifth and seventh graders, referrals, and at parents’ request.
As stated by the New Hampshire Department of Education: “Screenings provide a unique opportunity for nurses to positively impact the health of students.”
If a student does not pass a screening, the parents will be notified that a referral would be recommended.
