Healthy Student Program
Dear Parent:
Your child is eligible for enrollment in the Healthy Student Program, available only at selected schools (only administered by clinic assistant or school nurse) in the District where there are extended nursing services. Healthy Student Program services are offered at no direct cost to you and all students are eligible, regardless of insurance.
The main purpose of the Healthy Student Program is to improve school attendance and to reduce health problems that occur during the school day. A student may be withdrawn from the Healthy Student Program at any time by the parent or the school health services staff with written notice.
The Healthy Student program is the commitment of the Pasco County School District, and is intended as an effort to help students remain in school, ready to learn. Services available to students enrolled in the Healthy Student Program may include:
- Management of acute illness or injury and the administration of limited medications, following physician guidelines and protocols (i.e. ibuprofen, Tylenol, Motrin, Robitussin, Tums, and antifungal ointment, Benadryl, hydrocortisone, etc.).
- Observation and follow up re: communicable diseases (e. pink eye, ringworm, etc.).
- A health professional will communicate with you about your child’s particular health findings that may require an evaluation, follow up or referral.
- Physical Examinations (ARNP services) for school entry, sports, etc. may be available at limited school sites.
- Lab screenings (hematocrit/hemoglobin, anemia, blood glucose, urinalysis, and pregnancy testing) may be available at limited school sites.
Please inform the school nurse of any newly diagnosed health conditions for your child or changes in health status during the school year.
The primary goal of school health services is to support academic success by maintaining the physical and mental well being of your child.
