Immunization Clinic, in the main lobby.

PM.
Cost is $5.00 per child.
Welcome to our school website. As the school nurse,
I would like to let you know what my role is as part of the educational team at
Madison. In the future, I will be sharing health information for you and
your child.
As you may know, the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA)
guarantees that eligible children with disabilities have the right to receive a
free appropriate education in the least restrictive settings. For an
increasing number of children, however, access to education is only achieved
through the provision of necessary health services ( e.g., tracheotomy care,
catheterization, gastrostomy tube feedings ). The school nurse assures
that the specialized health services needed for eligible children to participate
fully in their educational program are safely and appropriately provided.
Some of these responsibilities include:
Identifying children who may need health-related services
Assessing the child's sensory and physical health status with
the assistance of parent(s) and health care providers.
Developing the individualized medical alerts and emergency
care plans.
Assist the educational team in developing the Individual
Educational Plan.
Assists the parent(s) and teachers to identify and utilize
community resources.
Provide in-service training for teachers and staff regarding
the individual health needs of the child.
Provide and/or supervises assertive personnel to provide
specialized health care procedures in the school setting.
As parents, I need to rely on you to keep me up to date with
how your child is doing medically. Please call and let me know if your
child will be going to the hospital, having surgery, changes in their medication
and if they are sick. My phone number is 734-246-8383 ext. 204
between 8:15 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. I look forward to hearing from you.
