Medicine comes with a label saying how often and how much to take for how long. It
ALWAYS has the patient’s name on it.

Asthma Inhalers
These are prescribed and each person has a medical plan – so they can be brought in to school.
They must be taken on school trips,or an asthmatic can’t go.

Hay-fever medication and pain killers are
also not allowed in school.
A Travel sickness pill can be given to a teacher for the way home when on a school trip – but the medicine form still needs signing and another member of staff is a witness that the medicine was taken .
