A STUDENT MUST HAVE A COMPLETED PARENTAL CONSENT FORM ON FILE TO RECEIVE EITHER SCHOOL NURSE AND/OR NURSE PRACTITIONER SERVICES.

VACCINES ARE NOT ADMINISTERED BY NCS CARE CLINIC REGISTERED NURSES OR NURSE PRACTITIONER STAFF. IN THE EVENT VACCINES ARE OFFERED DURING THE SCHOOL DAY FROM AN OUTSIDE AGENCY, THE PARENT/GUARDIAN WOULD BE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE A SEPARATE CONSENT FOR THEIR CHILD TO RECEIVE THAT SERVICE.
