Forms for medical history, physical, and emergency care are
provided by the school and must be returned to the school
health office at the beginning of the school year.
These forms are designed to provide information for the care
of the student in case of illness or accident.
A physical examination is mandated by the State of New York
for students in grades 9 and 10 and recommended for students
in grades 11 and 12.
The school health services provide an annual check-up in the
following areas: visual, auditory, weight, measurement, and
screening for possible scoliosis (spinal curvature).
The school nurse should be notified in writing of any physical
impairments or problems that relate to the proper care of each
child. Students who are required to take medications MUST
leave all medication in the health office. No student is to
carry or administer medication to themselves unless he or she
has a signed self-medication release form from the family
doctor and parent. Permission in writing is REQUIRED for
medication to be administered by the school nurse from the
parent as well as the family physician each year. No staff
other than the school nurse or administration is allowed to
administer medication of any kind.
Injuries suffered by a student on campus MUST be reported to
the supervising teacher and nurse immediately. If any injury
is serious, parents and/or their family doctor will be
contacted prior to any professional treatment. Parents are
required to provide the school with telephone numbers where
they and their family doctor may be reached in case of any
emergency.
