A Few Health Room Dos and Don'ts |
DO get a pass to visit the Health Room when you are ill. Students may remain in the Health Room for a brief time (10 minutes). After which the student will return to class or may be sent home. Students are allowed to call home from the Health Room and are NOT to text or call parents before visiting the Health Room. A student being dismissed early from school for illness will only be signed out from the Health Room.
DO keep your Emergency Card updated with a current phone numbers and information. Students can only be released to go home with parent permission AND only with those individuals listed on the Emergency Card.
DO get a “Parent’s Request to Administer Medication” for all prescription and over-the-counter medicine to be taken at school. This form must be completed and signed by a doctor. The form is available in the Health Room or at severnaparkhigh.org under “Health Room.” Over-the-counter medication must be in an UNOPENED container and MUST be brought to the Health Room by a parent/guardian, not by a student. No medicine of any kind may be carried by a student while at school. A student who violates this policy is subject to disciplinary action.
DO check out the Anne Arundel County Dept. of Health website at aahealth.org, “A Parent’s Guide to School Health”. It includes information on a wide variety of topics, from immunizations to flu updates.
DON’T hesitate to call the Health Room with any questions or concerns. We are here to assist you and your child.
