Dundee School Nurse
Getting Medications Back Home for Summer
OPS policy does not allow us to send home medications with elementary students at the end of the school year.
Unless your child is attending summer school, a parent or designated adult needs to pick up their medication on the last day of school (Friday, May 22). Medications not picked up by the following Wednesday, May 27, are to be disposed of.
Medication and Treatment Orders for Next Year (2015-16 School Year)
Students who are on daily and as needed medications, such as asthma inhalers, will receive an envelope with forms needed for the next school year. Please schedule your physician appointments now to ensure that your child will have the medication needed during the school day next year.
All medications, including anything across the counter, require written physician orders and written parent authorization. Medications supplied need to be in the properly labeled prescription bottle or in the original container.
You may drop off the medications and forms on Back to School Night (on Monday, August 10, 2015), but we should have them no later than the first day of the school year.
If you have any questions, please give me a call at (402) 554-8424.
