The Chapel Hill -Carrboro City School District has changed its policies regarding dispensing over-the-counter pain medications to high school students. The change in policy now allows the high school nurse to administer acetaminophen or ibuprofen to students without advance notice to parents, after first checking the student’s health information on file.
A copy of the complete CHCCS Student Medication Policy and Regulations for Administering Medications to Students will be posted on the district Coordinated School Health webpage. If you have any questions, please contact Stephanie Willis, CHCCS health coordinator at 967-8211 ext. 28245, or your child’s school nurse.
