Managing medications in school

If you need medication in school due to a medical condition you may be invited to see the School Health Nurse to discuss this. This includes emergency medication to treat severe allergy (anaphylaxis) and epilepsy.

If you are unsure if this applies to you please feel free to contact your School Health Nurse direct – their details can usually be found on a poster in your school or speak to your parent/carer, tutor or head of year.
