Dear parent or guardian,
The purpose of this form and the attached copy of the District’s policy on Student Health/Physical Screenings/Examinations is to provide notice of all health services offered or made available through the school by the District or by any private organizations and to provide notice of the District’s policy on physical examinations and screening of students and to obtain parent/guardian consent for these services.
The District will provide, under reasonable circumstances, nonemergency first aid services to a child appearing or representing to be sick or injured, such as dressing minor wounds, applying topical agents, providing fluids or ice, and performing checks to identify minor illnesses.
The District may also provide health care services without parent/guardian consent if District staff reasonably determines that a medical emergency exists and:
1. Furnishing the health care service is necessary to prevent death or address a serious bodily harm to the minor child; or
2. District staff can’t contact the parent/guardian despite a reasonably diligent effort, and the health care service is furnished to prevent loss of life or serious physical illness or injury to the minor child.
