9-12 Grade Parents
Due to an exponential increase in students carrying medication on their person, medications being sent in without the proper paperwork, and students calling parents to pick them up due to illness, but not visiting the clinic, below you will find a few reminders regarding these policies and procedures directly from the Student Handbook.
As stated on pages 34-36 of the handbook:
HEALTH SERVICES (CLINIC) Health Services is open during the school day for any student who becomes ill or injured. A nurse is on duty for this purpose. The school assumes responsibility only until the parent, guardian or family physician is notified. The clinic is located in the main office wing. In the nurse’s absence, students are to report to the Deans of Student Life and Culture. Students may not leave school due to illness without permission from the school nurse and/or Deans of Student Life and Culture.
ILLNESS GUIDELINES We ask that if your child exhibits ANY of these symptoms (and they may be concurrent or sequential), you keep your child home. Symptoms requiring child to stay home or removal of child from school: • At least 24 hours after they no longer have a fever (less than 100 degrees) or signs of a fever (chills, feeling very warm, flushed appearance, or sweating) without the use of fever-reducing medicine. • 24 hours after vomiting and diarrhea. Note: Please do not bring your child to school if he has vomited in the night. • Any undiagnosed skin rash ( rashes need to be verified by your doctor that they are non-contagious; a doctor’s note is needed) • Conjunctivitis (pink eye) until 24 hours after treatment with medicine • Frequent scratching of body or scalp
MEDICATIONS: The clinic staff, by state law, cannot and will not dispense medication, either prescription or non-prescription unless completed authorization forms from the student, parent/guardian and doctor are signed and dated and on file in the clinic. The information must state: • Name of medication • Dosage (in milligrams or milliliters) • Time to be administered The medication must be sent in the original prescription bottle with the pharmacy label matching the MD’s and parent order. All medications will be kept locked in the clinic. St. Edward High School reserves the right to send a student home if his behavior under medication is a cause for concern. Non-prescription drugs such as Advil, Tylenol or Maalox must be sent in the original-unopened container. Additionally, the clinic must be informed of any prescription medication the student is taking. This should be noted on the emergency medical authorization in Final Forms that is filled out at the beginning of each school year. This information is most helpful in allowing the nurse to assess any symptoms or side effects that may present themselves. Students with asthma are permitted to carry their inhalers. A consent form signed by both parent and medical doctor must be on file in the clinic. Please contact the clinic for this important form. Students with injuries requiring a cast, splint, crutches, etc., should provide the clinic with a doctor’s note stating what activity is to be restricted and the length of time. Forms to administer medication can be obtained from the nurse. Please contact the clinic at 216 221-3776 x 227 / FAX # 216 221-4609 for additional information.
To reiterate: ALL medication, prescription and nonprescription, is to be kept in a locked cabinet in the clinic, not on the student. The only exceptions are inhalers and epi-pens, with physician approval. Below is the link to the medication administration form that is to be completed by the physician and signed by both the parent and physician before any medication (prescription or non-prescription) can be administered: https://www.sehs.net/_files/ugd/bde749_a063b2318c65449896147a1adf39df14.pdf
