HEALTH OFFICE INFORMATION
I am full time at Western Coventry; however in rare instances I might be called to another school in the event that assistance is needed on a particular day.
I might not be available to take your phone calls during my lunch or while I'm teaching health education classes. Please leave a message on my voice mail or with the school clerk and I will return your phone call as soon as possible.
If you have given your child a dose of medication at home that we also have a written doctor's order for in school (for example an Inhaler or pill, liquid medication), please call or send a note to me that morning informing me, so that I'll be aware and to space out the next dose if needed in school.
If your child uses a medication in school that we have a written doctor's order for (other than a daily medication), I will at least send a note home as to what time the medication was given.
If your child has an old scrape, insect bite, poison ivy rash or splinter that occurred at home and needs treatment, please treat it before coming to school in the morning. It is not the school health office’s purpose to treat injuries or conditions that occur at home. This takes away from your child’s valuable academic time in class. When the office is busy, this could mean 15-20 minutes out of class. Please instruct your child to avoid coming to the health office for these conditions that can be treated at home. Thank you for your cooperation.
