Medicine Dispensing Procedures

1. Parents must fill out the Sagemont Prep Medication Form before the school administers prescription medication to the students. The form should indicate each day the medicine is to be given and the exact dosage. All prescription medication must be in the original containers and must be dropped off in the main office by the parent/guardian. No medication will be accepted by students. The medication will be stored in the office.

2. Medicine will be given during your child’s lunchtime. Please adjust your child’s schedule accordingly.

3. All medicines and forms will be collected and released by an administrative designee.

4. All medication is dispensed in the office. Students are not to self-medicate.

5. If you would like your child to be given the recommended dosage of aspirin substitute, allergy medicine, or stomach antacid when needed, you must give written permission on the Health & Emergency Information form. No internal medication will be given to your child unless this form has been filled out, signed, and returned to the office.
