Parkland School Division acknowledges that the primary responsibility for administration of medications rests with the family and/or the appropriate medical personnel. Whenever possible medication needs to be given at home. However, it may be appropriate in certain circumstances for school staff to assist parents in the administration of medications to students. In each of these cases, parents are required to have completed the appropriate paperwork (Request for Assistance to Administer Medication Form) which includes written instructions and signatures of the parent and physician. Forms are also available through the school office. If you have any questions regarding the distribution of medication to students please speak with your school Principal.
