Health Services

Physical and mental health significantly influences one's ability to participate fully in the School community. The Health Center strives to enhance each student's well being by insuring that each student has a comprehensive, confidential health care plan. The Health Center provides direct quality care to students with acute illnesses and minor injuries; preventative services; health education and effective crisis response.
 
We are members of the National Association of School Nurses, The Pennsylvania Association of School Nurses, and the Independent School Health Association and The American Red Cross. Lower Merion School District provides part-time nursing assistance for the implementation of our State Mandated Programs, including Immunization Surveillance and Student Health Screening.


Information about 2012-13 Health Forms
(Medical Emergency Form due March 15, 2012; all other forms due June 1, 2012)
The School Health Forms are an important part of providing a safe and supportive school experience for all of our boys. The June 1st deadline allows us time to address health concerns and put plans in place for your son's safety for the coming year. The following Health Forms are required annually in each of the following grades:

 

Medical Emergency Form
JrK-VI Form

 

School Physical Examination Form
JrK, K, Grades 6-VI Form and All NEW BOYS
If your son’s annual physical examination is scheduled after the June 1st deadline, please ask his doctor to complete the Physical Form without performing an examination. The doctor will include your son’s most recent health information, so that you can return the Physical Form by June 1st.

 

Immunization Record
JrK, K, Grade 6 and V Form and ALL NEW BOYS
This form should be provided by your son's doctor.

 

Dental Form
Grades 1, 3 and I Form only

 

Physician Order for Prescription Medication in School Form

Your son's doctor should complete this form only if your son will need prescription medication during school hours. Emergency medications including an inhaler, or an EpiPen, will require a prescription order from your son's doctor. If more than one prescription is necessary, please print an order form for each medication.

We regret that we cannot accept Health Forms by email or fax. Please mail the forms directly to School Health Services at the school address listed on the bottom of each form.
