Medications

Longmeadow Public School Nurses are allowed to distribute medications such as Tylenol (Acetaminophen), Motrin, and Advil (Ibuprofen).  At the beginning of every school year parents receive a form to be signed which gives the nurse permission to administer these medications.   We consult with our school physician every year to review these medications and protocols.

Center School has a stock supply of these medications in different forms:  chewable and liquid.

If your child has a medication such as an Epi-pen or an inhaler, then your child's health care provider must write an order  for that particular medication to be administered.   This form must be signed by a parent as well as the provider.

If your child needs a daily medication, such as that for ADHD or Diabetes, then your child's health care provider must write an order for that particular medication to be administered in school.  This form must be signed by parent as well as the provider.

All medication brought into school must be in the original labeled container.  No medication will be given without the signed physician order.  Medications are kept in a locked cabinet in the health office.  For your convenience, a blank form is below.
