First Aid Treatment To Children
From time to time injuries do occur in spite of careful supervision by the staff.
Most problems are minor and are remedied by a quick visit with a staff member to the first aid cabinet.
In the case of a more serious accident, parents will be contacted at once. Should the parents not be available the school will continue with the necessary steps in 'loco parentis'
These may include - transport to a local doctor, and further steps (if necessary) on the advice of the doctor.
Continuing efforts to contact parents will remain a priority.
Once again the situation at the time will determine the steps we will take.
Please note:
Medication - the school must have appropriate documentation before it is able to administer medication to children. The medical form is able to be downloaded from School Docs, otherwise copies are held in the office.
Allergies, reactions to stings etc - children having allergies or reactions that may adversely affect the health of the pupil should be known to the school.
