Emergency Medical Treatment

If a child becomes ill or is injured while at school or while being supervised by a member of the school district’s staff, the staff member shall promptly render first aid and, when appropriate, summon rescue squad assistance. Staff will promptly notify a student’s parent or guardian when a student needs medical attention.

The school district is not qualified under law to comply with directives to physicians limiting medical treatment and will not accept such directives. School district staff members will not honor “do not resuscitate/do not intubate” (DNR/DNI) orders, requests for transport to particular medical facilities and the like. Parents/Guardians must arrange for all such requests with rescue squad and medical providers directly.
