Re: What would you do
medicines should be kept away from the children and only handled by a qualified person (usually the first aider) the medicine should be logged every day and the paperwork/ permission slips should be signed daily by a parent and also by the staff member the gives/supervises the child taking the medication..
Whats puzzling me is that the bottle doesnt have a name on it. Schools cannot give children medicine that isnt prescribed and children arent allowed to look aftertheir own medicine ( in case of overdose)
the only way you can get round that is for the parent to go in and give medicines such as paracetamol which wouldnr be left in school anyway(there still needs to be a record of this to cover the school if the child is unwell or the child gets worse and has to go to hospital, staff need a record of medications)
Someone has really messed up here. I would make and appointment with the head teacher.
