Medication

Whenever possible, the parent or guardian should make arrangements so that it is not necessary for school personnel to administer a medication to a student. However there are cases when a student's health could be compromised by not getting medication during school hours. When sending any prescription or non- prescription medication to school each year, the parent must:

  • Medication prescribed by a licensed authorized health care provider must have the pharmacy label attached and clearly state the students name, name of medication and dosage of medication to be given.
  • Non-prescription medication must be sent in the original container with directions.
  • A completed IUSD Medication Administration form signed by both the parent and licensed authorized health care provider must accompany the medication for both prescribed medication or non-prescription medication.
