Re: OT: DOE employees not allowed to give supplements

[Guest guest]

Shelia.. most schools as far as I know cannot let you send meds to the

classroom for the teacher to dispense or for sure leave it in teh

child's things. Even in preschool for snack we can't do that. I have to

send things in original labeled bottle with instructions and they will

give it. I think in some places things are kept in office or with nurse

and are given to the child there which singles them out I guess but I

do think many places have regulations on medications that they have to

follow. I'd ask to see what those are for your school and go from

there.

Thanks . Well, I was told that not even the nurse is allowed,

not even with a letter from the physician. There should be a an

exemption on this for sure. I will find out from the district

attorney general or whoever made the ruling. Thanks again.

Hi. keep us posted on what you find out. Actually I can't imagine

that they could refuse to give meds with Dr. Order since some

children have need for meds that are life sustaining for them. Hum...

interesting to see what you find out.

HOpe it is not a big hassle!

All the best,

OT: DOE employees not allowed to give supplements

Hi Listmates, talking about supplements... the pricipal of our public

school told me that their employees, inlcuding the skills trainer are

not allowed to give supplements to the students. Have you guys dealt

with this issue? The only supp that fall on sched are the enzyme and

the probiotics for lunch. I suppose there is a way around it aside from

pre-mixing these in a syringe? I am starting to train my little one to

squirt the syringe content in his mouth but he has not mastered the

spoon, let alone a syringe. We start pre-school in 2 weeks.

By thw way , thanks for the response... I will have to do the same.

Sheila

This is probably their " POLICY " not a law per se. Policy can be made by anyone

for any reason whether it complys or not with actual law. Schools do a lot of

" incorrect " policy. If a Dr. prescribes this and they don't do it or refuse to

do it they will be in a great deal of trouble.
