PARENTS ADMISSIONS Open Menu / Our School / School Life / Medical Centre MEDICAL CENTRE Coronavirus Information The Medical Centre is situated in a converted house right next to the campus; it contains 10 beds and a fully equipped clinic. The centre is run by a team of fully qualified Registered General Nurses with qualifications in paediatric minor injuries, travel health and wound care. It provides 24-hour care during school hours; on Saturday nights and Sundays a nurse will be on call. The team looks after pupils with conditions such as asthma, hayfever and diabetes, as well as providing care for sudden illnesses or accidents. Pupils will be admitted by the nurses to the Medical Centre if they are too unwell to be at school. Parents will be contacted if the duty nurse feels the pupil would recover better at home. If a pupil needs to see a general practitioner urgently, an appointment can be made at Shere Surgery and arrangements will be made to take the pupil to Shere. We place a great emphasis on confidentiality. All pupils are welcome to see us to discuss any concerns they may have, knowing it will go no further than the Medical Centre. We are non-judgmental and always happy to lend an ear to those who seek our help. Below you will find a download for our parental consent form for pupils to be given prescribed medicine in school. Please return this to the Medical Centre once completed. CONSENT FOR MEDICINE FORM Please download for our parental consent form for pupils to be given prescribed medicine in school.

If parents are travelling abroad privately with their child, it is their responsibility to organise this via their local surgery (as a temporary resident) or by contacting Shere Surgery on 01483 202066. Cranleigh Pharmacy also offers travel vaccinations and can be contacted on 01483 274323 or by emailing cranleighpharmacy@gmail.com. If your child is travelling overseas with the School, i.e. a school trip, please email the Medical Centre at medicalcentre@cranleigh.org. As some courses of injections need to be given over a period of 6 months, we would ask that you supply this information to us as far in advance of the trip as possible. Vaccinations are charged to parents at the prevailing NHS rate. This service is not available to Day pupils (unless they are registered with Shere Surgery).
