HOW CAN YOU HELP THE CLINIC PROVIDE THE BEST POSSIBLE
CARE?
• Complete and return the Health Information Form, listing
specific health conditions that may impact your child’s
school day. A medical alert list is developed using this information
to inform each child’s teacher(s) of health issues.
• Complete and return the Emergency Care Information Form,
listing as emergency contacts someone who can be reached and can
pick up your child should he/she become sick or injured at school.
Notify the school office and the clinic of any changes to the
information provided on this form.
• If your child will have PE restrictions, notify the PE
teacher directly.
• Keep a sick child home. Check your child before he/she
leaves for school in the morning. It is difficult to concentrate
and perform tasks when not feeling well.
