REMINDER FOR HEALTH ROOM STAFF
Health Room Visits
If students are seen in the health room, information about the visit should be entered in Synergy under “Health Log”.
Head Injury
For any student head injury, a notation in the Health Log should be made along with a completed Incident Report. A parent/guardian must be notified for each head injury. This information (including date, time, and which parent/guardian was notified) should also be noted on the Incident Report as well as in the Health Log.
UPDATED FIELD TRIP/ACTIVITY REQUEST FORM
An updated field trip form has been posted to the portal (form date 3/2023) for all fieldtrips. Staff members have been instructed to begin using this form immediately. As a reminder, nursing staff must be provided with notice about the trip, in writing, at least 2 weeks prior. There is an area on the updated form for the requestor to provide the nurse’s name and notification date and time. This section of the form must be completed in order for the trip to be approved.
For any students requiring direct care nursing support, teachers must complete the Request for Direct Care Nursing Service Form.
