Understanding Administering of Medications
_Before administering any medications, whether prescription or over the counter (OTC), written authorization (via email) must be given by the parent which includes the date & a signature. Any medications must be accompanied by a signed, dated written consent or Mrs. Barbara cannot administer. A link for medication can be found on the Parent Page of the website.
_ Prescription medication MUST be in the original container with the child’s name, type of medication, dosage, directions for administering, date, & physician’s name.
_OTC medications must be in the original container and be accompanied by a signed, dated note by the parent outlining dosage and time administered. This includes Tylenol, allergy medicines, & any other OTC medications. Mrs. Barbara can no longer just give them something per request. A link for medication can be found on the Parent Page of the website. If you know you’ll be sending medication on a given day, fill out the form that morning, prior to bringing the medication.
_Per the state of Oregon, daycare providers must now keep a written record of all medications administered: OTC & Prescription, which includes date, time, & dosage administered along with the signed & dated note from the parent.
_Medications cannot be administered “as needed”. Parents must supply precise instructions related to any medications: OTC & Prescription
_Medications requiring penetration of the skin (injections) and/or suppositories are the responsibility of the parent and will not be administered by the daycare provider.
