College Medication procedure

If a parent requests the College Nurse administer medication to their child, they must complete a Medication Request Form, which is available from the Health Centre. The medication must be in its original container or packaging and clearly labelled with the following:   

• Child’s name
• Name of medication             
• Expiry date
• Dose and time to be administered

• If a student must carry and self-administer medication while at school, only a single measured dose for one school day can be brought onto the College premises. Medication must be locked in that student’s locker.
• Students with diagnosed asthma are requested to carry their reliever medication with them at all times. Students must have asthma medication with them during off-site and out-of-school activities, eg, sports, camps etc.
• Students with diagnosed anaphylaxis are requested to carry their EpiPen (adrenaline auto-injector) with them at all times (if age appropriate). Students must carry their EpiPen to all off-site and out-of-school hours activities, eg, sports, retreats, camps etc.
• Students with diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes are requested to carry their “hypo kit” at all times.

Students must have a “hypo kit” with them during off-site and out-of-school activities, eg, sports, retreats, camps etc.
