MEDICATION

When your child is on medication from a doctor, you will be required to sign a form each day, authorising teachers to administer the medication. 

Non-prescribed medicine will not be administered, nor will medicine be given that doesn’t have your child’s name and a current date on the label.

Arnica and Hypercal are provided by and used at the centre. Permission from you is gained on the enrolment form.

Long term medication will be administered based on your child’s action plan. Medications for life threatening conditions, such as allergies, can be held here in a locked cabinet. Staff are trained in the administration of epi-pens and asthma inhalers.
