End of the Year Medication Pick Up

The school health room is reminding parents and guardians that all medication stored in the health room must be picked up no later than 3:00 p.m. on June 3, 2022. Medications left in the health room after that time will be discarded. It is school policy that medications must be picked up by the parent or guardian. Medication cannot be sent home with your student.

Medication authorization forms for next school year may be obtained from the school or online:

• • Prescription Medication Form
  • Non-Prescription Medication Form

A medication authorization form is required for any medication, prescription or over-the-counter, to be kept at school. Please be sure medication orders are clear. All information on the form must be completed.

Over-the-counter medication must be in the original container and clearly labeled by the parent or guardian. All prescription medication, including physician’s samples, must be labeled by the pharmacist or physician. Please make sure that the label clearly states your student’s name, the name of the medication, the dosage of the medication, and the time interval for administration.

Your cooperation will ensure that we can safely give your student his or her medication. If you have any questions, please contact the school nurse, at 906-308-4067, or email at sholm@westiron.org.

Thank you for your cooperation and have a great summer.
