Health Room/Clinic

HEALTH ROOM

The Health Room is staffed by a Health Room Attendant.  Florida Statue prohibits the use of the term “nurse” when referring to a Health Room Attendant.  Therefore, at no time, should a Health Room Attendant be referred to as a nurse. 

Students who become ill during school hours should be sent to the Health Room with a pass. The Health Room Attendant will evaluate the student and contact the parent as to whether the student should return to class or be sent home. 

In the event of an injury, an Incident Report must be filled out by the person witnessing the injury.  Once completed, the Incident Report must be given to the School Secretary.  

Parents must complete a medication form for any student who receives medication at school on a regular basis.
