Health Care Policy
.............
A school nurse is available on a regular basis at Parsley. Sometimes it is necessary to send a child home from school when ill. Presently our school follows these procedures:
- A student is sent home when feeling ill and having a normal temperature above 100 degrees. Occasionally a below normal temperature with other symptoms may also be in indication of illness, and the student will be sent home.
-
Any student with lice, scabies, or impetigo will be dismissed until treatment has been rendered.
Any student with inflamed eyes, a rash, or a lesion must be excluded until the possibility of a contagious disease can be ruled out or until written permission from a physician indicating return to school has been received.
If your child should need medication during he school day, the principal must have a completed Physician's Authorization form. All medications should be delivered to the office by an adult. All medication will be kept in the office. School policy prohibits school personnel from dispensing over-the-counter medication to students without a Physician's Authorization Form.
