Health Clinic Policies
Each student entering the Clinic must have a permit with the time indicated and signed by the teacher whose class they will be missing to go to the Clinic. If the student is visiting the Clinic briefly, the Nurse will countersign, indicating the time on the permit. This procedure enables the student to return quickly to class.
If it becomes necessary for a student to remain in the Clinic longer than one class period, the Attendance Desk will be notified.
If the Nurse is not in her office, a note to that effect will be posted on the Clinic door. At such times, the receptionist will be informed of the Nurse’s whereabouts.
If it becomes necessary for a student to rest while the Nurse is at lunch, the student should hand his or her permit to the Nurse in the cafeteria. She will sign the pass, thereby authorizing the student to go to the Clinic to rest. Clinic visits are entered in a log.
