ADMINISTRATION OF MEDICINES                                        February 2010

WE ARE ONLY PERMITTED TO ADMINISTER MEDICATION

WITH PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT

We are only permitted to administer pain/fever relief or any other medicine to any child under any circumstances if we have received prior written consent.

Should your child require medication, please bring the medicine in a properly labelled container and complete and sign a medicine consent form giving written information detailing times and dosage of any medication administered within the previous eight hours.

If your child is infectious, please consult a health professional and check our Infectious Diseases Policy before bringing the child to us.

If children are unwell, we are legally required to take necessary steps to prevent the spread of infection, and take appropriate action when they are ill, which at times may mean exclusion.

Should your child become unwell whilst in our care, we may contact you to request that you collect the child as soon as possible.
