HEALTH SERVICES
Mrs. Joyce McGowan, RN
609-522-5615
A registered nurse is on duty from 8:00 A.M. to 2:30 P.M. Students who wish to go to the nurse's office during school session will obtain a pass from a teacher. Except in the case of an emergency, no student will be admitted without a pass. If the nurse determines that a student is too ill to remain in school, she will call the parent. Ordinarily, students who are injured or taken ill at school may not drive home; exceptions may be made at parents' request. The student will be released into the custody of a parent or parent designee, who must identify themselves. Students who have been released from school during the school day due to illness may not participate in or attend activities that day or evening. According to the state of New Jersey and the Diocese of Camden, the nurse may dispense prescribed medication only with written order of the physician and parental permission slip which can be obtained from the school nurse's office. All student medications are to be kept in the nurse's office during school hours. NEW JERSEY STATE LAW REQUIRES THAT ALL STUDENTS MUST HAVE MANDATED IMMUNIZATIONS TO BE ADMITTED TO ANY SCHOOL IN THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY. |
