Student Health & Medical Forms

Students must be fever-free and symptom-free for 24 hours before returning to school. Students sent home during the school day with a fever or illness will not be allowed to return the following day to ensure the safety of the entire school community. Please see attendance page for more details. 

Students are not allowed to carry any medications, including both prescription and over-the-counter drugs, while on campus, except for a few emergency medications that have been previously approved by the school nurse. If a student needs to take medication during school hours, please fill out the authorization form for any prescribed and over-the-counter medications. The school nurse will be responsible for administering these medications as needed.

For those students who have severe allergies, diabetes, asthma, or who are prone to seizures, it's important to provide the nurse with your emergency action plan, so we are prepared to respond effectively in case of an emergency situation on campus.

Medical form for administration of medication

Students diagnosed with asthma should be under the care of a doctor to determine treatment, medication, and modifications if necessary.  Students will require an Asthma Action Plan at St. Benedict.

Please ensure the school is provided with a completed Food and Allergy Action Plan to help us effectively manage your child's food allergies and ensure their safety while on campus.

Students with a history of seizures should submit an annual Seizure Action Plan.  This will allow the School Nurse to monitor and manage the student's seizure activity in accordance with your physician's orders.

If your child requires emergency medications to control or stop a seizure, please make sure the physician completes the medical form for the administration of medicine and you should provide the student's medication to the School Nurse.
