The school will not give your child medicine unless you complete the form below. Please note that by completing the form you are agreeing to the following:
"I agree to members of staff administering medicines, first aid and emergency treatment to my child as directed below or in the case of an emergency, as staff may consider necessary. I understand that it is my own responsibility to ensure the medicine is taken to the school admin office and handed to a member of staff on arrival at school and that the medication is collected at the end of the school day if it is required at home.
I accept that this is a service which the school is not obliged to undertake. I recognise that school staff are not medically trained.
The above information is, to the best of my knowledge, accurate at the time of writing and I give consent to school/ staff administering medicine in accordance with the school/setting policy. I will inform the school/setting immediately, in writing, if there is any change in dosage or frequency of the medication."
NB: Medicines must be in the original container as dispensed by the pharmacy (this is not the responsibility of CHS staff).
