STUDENT HEALTH INFORMATION
STUDENTS WITH DIAGNOSED MEDICAL CONDITIONS
To ensure that Sandringham College can appropriately support students with diagnosed medical conditions, we ask that parents read the information below and provide the necessary information and medical resources. For any serious medical conditions, please ensure that you advise your student's Year Level Leader. The College will follow up to ensure that the appropriate actions are taken.
ANAPHYLAXIS/EPIPENS
All students who are diagnosed as being at risk from an anaphylactic reaction must provide the school with an Individual Management Plan from the treating medical practitioner and a current adrenaline autoinjector (EpiPen).
We ask all parents and carers to ensure that the school has a current Management Plan, including an up-to-date photo of the student, and an EpiPen to be stored in the Admin Office of their base campus, in case it is required.

ASCIA Action Plan: Anaphylaxis - Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA)
ASTHMA
All students who are diagnosed as being at risk from asthma must provide the school with an Asthma Action Plan from the treating medical practitioner and an asthma kit. The asthma kit should contain the students prescribed reliever medication and their own spacer (if they use one).
We ask all parents and carers to ensure that the school has a current Action Plan and the student's asthma kit stored in the Admin Office of their base campus, in case it is required.

ADMINISTRATION OF MEDICATION - OTHER THAN FOR ANAPHYLAXIS OR ASTHMA
If a student requires medication, Sandringham College encourages parents to arrange for this to be taken outside of school hours. When a student requires medication at school, parents are asked to provide a Medication Authority Form from the treating medical practitioner and arrange to deliver the medication to the Admin Office of their base campus. Sandringham College will ensure that the medication is administered to the student in accordance with the Medication Authority Form and will keep a record of the medication administered.
