Parents must give me prior written consent and written instructions before I can administer any medication to their child. This must include the child’s name, the exact dosage to be given, (when) time to be given, and how many times a day.
Parents must provide all medications, asthma inhalers, creams, etc… needed by their children.
All medicines must be in their original containers with the pharmacist or manufacturer's label, child's name, dosage instructions, current date, and name of medication clearly written.
If a child requires medication such as an asthma inhaler regularly, the parent must leave one in my setting whenever their child is in my care.
I store all medications in their original containers, inaccessible to children.
I keep written records of all medications administered to children. Each entry is signed by the person who gives the medication (myself) and by the parents before taking their children home.
PLEASE NOTE:
I cannot administer any medication that your child has not taken previously. This is in case of an allergic reaction.
I cannot administer any medicines containing aspirin unless it has been prescribed by a doctor.
