Parent Information Regarding Medication Procedures
|
|
The parent or guardian must transport medications to and from school/SACC. All prescription medications, including physician prescription drug samples, must be in their original containers and labeled by a physician or pharmacist. Over-the-counter medication must be in the original, sealed container. No medication will be accepted by school personnel/CCC without receipt of completed and appropriate medication forms.
|
|
Within one week after expiration of the effective date on the physician order, or on the last day of school/SACC, the parent or guardian must personally collect any unused portion of the medication. Medications not claimed within that period will be destroyed.
|
|
A physician may use office stationery or a prescription pad in lieu of completing Part II. Faxed authorization may be acceptable as long as there is a signed parental consent. Any changes in the original medication authorization will require a new written authorization and a corresponding change in the prescription label.
