Please remember if your student has a physical over the summer to send in the updated physical papers on the 1st day of school, including any immunizations they may have received. Also, a new Care Plan will need to be completed for those students with Asthma, Diabetes, Food Allergies, or Seizures. These must be updated annually by the physician and can be faxed to 812-435-8881.
All medications, prescription and non-prescription, need to be checked in at the nurse’s office upon arrival at school, and a permission slip needs to be filled out by the parent / guardian before medicine may be administered.
Medication cannot be carried on the student's person. Should there be a situation in which a doctor has ordered a student to carry a medication/medical device with him/her at all times, written documentation of the order must be provided by the physician. Medication must be brought in its original container. Transportation of medication by a high school student may only occur with signed permission on the EVSC medication form. Medications not picked up by the end of the last student day will be disposed of in accordance with Indiana law. All medications (over the counter, prescription, etc) including inhalers, must be administered by the nurse.
