Medications

The preschool will administer medications for asthma (inhaler) or life threatening allergic reactions (Epipen) to a child only after the parent completes a Care Plan and Request of Medication form. All sections must be completed and the medication handed to the teacher. Medications will be stored in designated areas inaccessible to children. Medications may not be stored in a child’s bookbag. Medications other than Epipens and rescue inhalers will be considered on a case by case basis. Prescription medications must be in their unexpired original container and administered in accordance to instructions on the label.
