20 | P a g e Health School Nurse The school nurse will keep all pertinent medical information. Hearing and eyesight will be checked by the nurse. Parents may receive notes from the nurse concerning the health of your child. The School Nurse and the parent/guardian should work together to follow through on suggested recommendations. NJ Immunization Law Effective September 1, 2004. All students in grades 9, 10, 11, and 12 are required by law to have the appropriate two (2) or three (3) dose HEPATITIS B VACCINE. Failure to acquire this vaccine will lead to student’s exclusion from school. Student Injuries Parents should be aware of the permission slips they sign before their children take part in certain school activities such as athletics or field trips. These forms serve several purposes. They inform the parents about the activity, and they provide parental approval of the child’s participation in the activity. Alcohol and Drug Abuse If a student is suspected of being under the influence of alcoholic beverages or intoxicating drugs, the New Jersey State Law requires that the matter be reported immediately to the school Principal. The Principal is required to immediately notify the student’s parents and refer the student to the Student Assistance Counselor (S.A.C.)
21 | P a g e Student’s Health and Welfare Health Service Policy Parents are primarily responsible for their student’s health. The school will assist the parents in fulfilling this responsibility without assuming it for them. The aim of the school health examinations are: To discover and initiate treatment of remediable conditions that impair the child’s health and his/her ability to learn. To create a favorable attitude toward health examinations and their importance throughout life. The main objective of school nursing is to strengthen the education process of children by assisting them to improve or adapt to their health status. The following policies are intended to promote good health and the well-being of pupils and staff: 1. The school nurse should not be a substitute for a family doctor. 2. Please do not send children to school who are ill. (Examples: colds, fever, vomiting, contagious diseases, etc.) 3. The Health Questionnaire Emergency Form should be completed and returned to the school Nurse each school year. This is extremely important in case of emergencies. 4. Consistent absenteeism or frequent trips to the Health Office may indicate a physical problem and should be checked by a Doctor. 5. Home instruction is provided for the education of children who are unable to attend school. A certificate from a physician should state an expected absence for more than 10 consecutive days of school. 6. If your child has an injury requiring a medical excuse from Physical Education, please present this in writing to the Physical Education teacher in order for the child to be excused from participating in class. 7. Parents are encouraged to notify the nurse immediately of any communicable disease in the family. Please the following chart for examples: Disease Exclusion from School Re-admission Chickenpox For seven (7) days after the rash appears. Pinkeye For 24 - 72 hours or until all discharges subside. M.D. Cert. Staph-Skin Four (4) to ten (10) days Lesions & Infected Wounds Until all drainage stops M.D. Cert.
