MEDICATION
Students are prohibted from carrying or self‐administering any medication whether it’s prescribed or over the counter
while participating on a school sponsored trip as per BOE Policy #5330. All such medication must be carried and
administered by a Board approved licensed nurse. However, New Jersey law povides that students are permitted to
self‐administer medication only “for asthma or other potentially life‐threatening illnesses or a life‐threatening allergic
reaction” N.J.S.A. 18A:40‐12.5 (i.e. epi‐pens or inhalers). The parent/guardian of the student must provide the school
nurse with a written authorization from the student’s physician and together develop an individualized healthcare plan.
Therefore, a student may only mediate self under these limited conditions.
