Medications. The school shall not furnish medications. All medications administered at school shall be provided by the parents/guardians. • The Medication Authorization and Permission Form must be provided. This form, which states the nature of the medication, must be signed and dated by the doctor and the parents/guardians. • Medication administered at school must be in the original container and labeled. The day's dosage must be sealed, be labeled, and have the student's name attached. It shall be in an appropriate container and be kept in the school office or nurse's office. • The student shall come to the office for medication. • Because of the risk of students sharing medications, students may not carry medication of any kind to be self-administered at school. If a student is seriously at risk without an EpiPen or inhaler on his or her person, the student may receive special consideration. • A student may not be given medicine prescribed for family members. • These medication regulations apply to both prescription and non-prescription medications. • A student who is diabetic is allowed to test his or her blood sugar at school in the health room or office and self-administer medication as necessary. If a student is too young or otherwise unable to self-test his or her blood sugar, a location may make arrangements with the student's family to assist with testing. All medications must be kept in the school office or nurse's office and appropriately labeled as described above. School employees may not administer injections to a diabetic student except in emergencies, unless other arrangements are made in advance. If parents/guardians do not complete the Medication and Authorization Form by indicating the student's prescribed medication, the parents/guardians will have to come to school and personally administer that medication. SECURITY & EMERGENCY PROCEDURES State and federal laws require employers, schools, and places of public assembly to provide an environment that is healthy and safe for all. The archdiocese is committed to ensuring that all staff, parishioners, students, and guests can work, worship, learn, and visit without encountering known health hazards or dangerous conditions. As ministers and the faithful, every clergy member, employee, and volunteer in our parishes and schools shall place the safety and welfare of the young and vulnerable above their own safety. Due to the multifaceted services the archdiocese offers in different locations, and in deference to the canonical principle of subsidiarity, as a matter of archdiocesan policy each location is separately responsible for providing a safe, secure, and healthy environment for all. Emergency Cards Each family must have an emergency card on file in the attendance office that supplies certain, necessary information, including the name of two persons who may be contacted in the event neither parent can be reached. If any changes of address or phone number occurs during the school year, please notify the office immediately in writing. Emergency cards must ALWAYS be up-to-date. All school employees are regularly certified for CPR and First Aid. If a child collapses to the ground a staff member or teacher is called to immediately attend to the student, administering first aid as needed. If the injuries or condition of the student appears to be serious, 911 is called and the student's parents are notified. In case of illness or accident, the school will contact the parent’s home or work by telephone and follow the request of the parent. It is understood that enrollment at St. Pius X confers upon the school the obligation to select emergency care providers in the event we are unable to reach parents and that no liability would attach to such a decision in the event that the parents could not be reached. The school does not dispense medication of any kind, including aspirin unless a prescription has been filled out by a physician.
