Here you will find some information on how we can ensure any care provided to your child while at school is delivered safely and in compliance with state regulations and healthcare laws.
 
Physical Exam and Immunizations
 
Upon entrance to school, students are required to have up-to-date immunizations and a current physical exam (within the past year) per the State of New Hampshire. Please obtain these documents from your child’s healthcare provider and deliver to the school prior to the first day of school. You may give your provider the school physical exam form linked below, or your provider may use their own form. Religious exemption form for immunizations is linked below if necessary.
 
 
IF YOUR CHILD WILL REQUIRE MEDICATION WHILE IN SCHOOL
 Over the counter medications
If your child may require over-the-counter medication during school, the parent/guardian must sign a medication authorization form. Signed forms and medications can be brought into the health office. 
 
 
 Prescription Medications
Medication must be in a pharmacy labeled bottle with the student’s name and correct dosage and contain only enough medication for one (1) month.  Please ask the pharmacy to divide the medication into two bottles, one for home and one for school. Controlled medication must be brought in by a responsible adult and will be counted by the responsible adult and the school nurse. A written letter or order by your child's doctor which includes student's name, date of the order, the name and signature of prescriber and contact numbers, medication name, route and dosage of medication, diagnosis (if not a violation of confidentiality), directions/ frequency and time of administration, and possible side effects must accompany the prescription.
 
 
IF YOUR CHILD HAS ASTHMA , ALLERGY & ANAPHYLAXIS OR SEIZURES
 Your child needs an EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN at school. These emergency plans are the tools needed to keep your child safe.  Each school year a new plan is required. The plan must be signed by both the parent/guardian and the Health Care Provider. Forms must be completed and brought into the health office (along with any required medications) on or before the first day of school. 
 
 
Please reach out anytime with any concerns regarding your child's health and wellness. I am always happy to discuss any health concerns or needs. Thank you for your help in keeping our students safe and healthy at school!- Hannah Dean, RN
