Information about the flu 2004-2005

JUST A FYI From THE NURSE

When students go on field trips, the only medications I am able to send are the EPIPENS, (not the Benadryl), INHALERS and any Prescribed DAILY MEDS.he Massachusetts Dept. of Public Health sets regulations and we are unable to send the Tylenol and motrins that children have for routine headaches, etc.
 
 


 
I wanted to inform the Diamond Community of the generous donation we received from The Rotary Club of Lexington. They graciously donated an AED (automated external defibrillator) to our school. The AED is used for heart attack or blunt trauma victims that suffer Cardiac Arrest. These machines potentially offer people the "gift of life." It is here in the main hall across from my office. I have shown many of the 8th graders taking CPR and staff how the AED operates with the use of our training model. Feel free to call with any questions.
