Student Medications Information:
The following statement is for the purpose of clarifying steps for transportation and hand off of student medications:
Any student medication requiring transportation to and from another location other than the student’s classroom must done by an adult/teacher.
Any adult/teacher who receives a student’s medication must oversee that medication until it is handed off to another adult/teacher.
It shall be the student’s teacher who is accountable for making sure that the student’s medication is back in his/her classroom at the end of the day and also will be accountable for ensuring that the student’s medication is present at the time of the student’s return to his/her classroom.
Never, should the transportation/hand off of a medication be a student’s responsibility. Never should a student handle a medication of his/her own or another student’s medication. If a student is to “self-carry” a medication, the teacher/adult will be made aware by the school nurse
