Another growing health problem in recent years is
food allergies in children. The
school environment should be safe for all children and those with food allergies
are no exception. Pennsauken Public
Schools has a Food Allergy Protocol that we follow to insure the safety of
children with food allergies and to promote independence in the child in dealing
with this often lifelong problem.
Below are highlights of our protocol. You can also download the forms you and your physician will need to put a plan for school into place. Please consult with your child’s nurse to develop an individual plan for your child.
q Role of the Classroom Teacher
q Form - Medical Statement for the School Lunch Program
q Form - Physician order form for Epinephrine via auto injector (EpiPen)
q Form - Physician order form for other medication(s) that may be required
