Students with Allergies

An allergic reaction can be a serious event. Every second counts when recognizing and treating an allergic reaction. In order for the staff at Open Door Christian Schools to provide safe, fast, effective medical care to your child in the event of an emergency we need to have the following forms completed and signed by both you and your child’s physician.

 

If your child carries and self-administers an Epinephrine Auto injector then the following forms are required:

  1. Emergency Action Plan for Allergies
  2. Authorization for Student Possession and Use of an Epinephrine Auto Injector

 

*We strongly encourage any child competent in the administration of their medication to carry and self-administer that medication as prescribed by their physician.

If you would like your child’s Emergency medication (Epinephrine, Benadryl, etc.) to be kept in the clinic and administered by a trained ODCS staff then the following forms are required:

  1. Emergency Action Plan for Allergies
  2. Medication Authorization Form

 

Please return the form(s) to the Nurse’s office or have them faxed to (440) 284-6033. All medical forms need to be returned and on file at the school prior to the first day of school. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact the clinic at (440) 326-2376.
