Cumberland County Schools embraces the diverse health needs of our student population and has created this protocol to educate parents and staff with best practices for medication administration.  School nurses are present in schools one day each week and respond on-call for emergency situations.  The school district retains the right to reject a request for the administration of medication.  The only responsibility of liability that can be assumed by the school system or its personnel is to comply with the instructions forwarded by parent/guardian and physician.  Prior to acceptance of medication, parents must have a completed Physician's School Medication Form. The Office of Health Services in collaboration with the Cumberland County Department of Public Health provides a variety of parent support services, workshops, and connections to community resources.
