About BHS Clinic
-
The school maintains a clinic for students. Clinic personnel supervise the administration of medications, notify parents/guardians of sick or injured students, and administer first aid to students following school guidelines. Students who become ill or injured during the school day should request a pass from their teacher to go to the clinic. Clinic personnel will contact a parent or guardian as situations require. All students who require checkout due to illness or injury must check out through the clinic.
Medications
-
PRESCRIPTION AND OVER-THE-COUNTER MEDICATION
Students who must carry an EpiPen or asthma inhaler at school must complete an Allergy Health Management Plan and/or Asthma Plan form; both require a physician’s signature. Questions? Please contact the at clinic (770) 736-2097 upon return to school.
For the safety of all students at our school:
- Administration of prescription and over-the-counter medicine (even for a short period of time) is discouraged. Parents/ guardians should check with their physician regarding the need for medication administered during school hours. Medications prescribed three times daily can often be given before school, after school, and at bedtime. If you have any questions about this procedure, please call the school clinic.
- All medications, both prescription and over-the-counter, must be accompanied with an Administration of Medication Request form. This form is available in the clinic or can be downloaded from this webpage. All medication must be brought to the school clinic by an adult. Students are not allowed to carry medication on campus, the exception being emergency medication such as an Epipen or asthma inhaler.
- All medications must be in the ORIGINAL CHILD-PROOF CONTAINER. Prescription medications must be in the labeled prescription bottle. Pharmacists can give a duplicate labeled container with only the school dose. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to inform the school of any changes and to update medication forms. Medications stored in envelopes, baggies, etc., will not be administered. ALL MEDICATIONS NEED TO BE ADMINISTERED ACCORDING TO DIRECTIONS ON THE LABEL.
- Medications must be picked up at the end of the school year, or the school will dispose of them.
