MEDICATIONS ON CLASS RETREATS
Signed authorizations are required for any medication to be dispensed on a school trip. Please take a moment to be sure that the forms you submit(ted) reflect your student's current medication regimen and let the nurse (kendra_wiesel@watkinson.org) know as soon as possible (no later than Monday 9/16) if you need to make any changes.
Medication Drop-off and Pick-up Process
- If your student has medication here at school (including prescriptions and/or emergency meds), the nurse will pack that for them, no need to send additional supplies.
- Medications should be dropped off to the reception desk in Feringa Hall NO LATER THAN END OF DAY TUESDAY 9/17. Medications MUST be in their original packing/prescription bottle. Schools cannot accept/dispense any loose medications, including those in pill organizers. For prescriptions, please provide only the doses needed, with a maximum 1 dose extra in case of dropped/lost doses, unless they come in a specialized dispensing packet. Place all meds needed for the trip in a ziplock bag labeled with your student's name and grade.
- If your student SELF-CARRIES an emergency medication such as epinephrine and inhalers, please be sure it is with them the day of departure.
- Please give ALL MORNING med doses on the day of departure before the bus.
- Be sure to meet with a trip chaperone when picking your student up on Friday for the return of any medication bottles/supplies.
