Among other tasks, the nurses are able to provide support with health and injuries, support with mental health, staff training, class presentations, etc. A new student health record system facilitates care and communication of health matters from parents, the Health Unit, and other relevant staff. This new system is accessible via the Parent Portal (Veracross) and ensures that private health information is kept confidential as per legislative requirements. The school nurses assist with: - Student medical forms - Immunization requirements - Accommodations due to medical issues and concerns - Allergy, asthma and other chronic conditions' treatment plans - Prescription medications that must be taken during school hours - Post-concussion treatment planning and support - Public health policies and guidelines - Emergencies and first-aid treatment on campus The list above is not exhaustive and parents, students and staff are welcome to contact the nurses by email at schoolnurse@tfs.ca or by phone at ext. 4464.
