If a child has vomited or is contagious, the parent will automatically be called to pick up the child. If your child needs to take any type of medication during the school day, please send a note with the proper instructions for dispensing. All medication must be in the original container.
Medication is dispensed and recorded in the office.
Parents should transport medication to and from school. If you child is hurt at school, we will administer first aid and will contact you concerning an injury more serious than a minor abrasion. If, in our judgment, an injury requires immediate medical attention, we will call 911 for emergency assistance and then will immediately try to contact you. If your child needs to be transported to the hospital, a school staff member will accompany your child if you have not arrived at the school. Every school is assigned a nurse who is part of the staff at the Wake County Health Department.
