Update....one month into school and here's my email from today....I also just found out that the kids were given smarties and that they were not given enough time to eat the ice cream (that we rushed over) so it got put back into the lunchbox.....ITS A MESS! Isn't that a fine idea!  
- In addition to a general review, there are a few things that I would like to address specifically:
On the first day of school I found the epi pens locked in the office. I know it was a hectic start but I did expect them to be placed as it is written in his plan. At the least one should have been placed in his classroom but I’m pretty sure that no one knew where they were.
I am also interested in the circumstances of ice cream being served today and some mention of popcorn party? Who sponsored this and for what? Did I miss this on a hand out or calendar somewhere? Teacher called me today about the ice cream and due to a lucky fluke Dad was able to zip over and give BOY some safe ice cream just in time. I had no idea that there was an event planned. I had no time to check with the product manufacturer and was caught completely off guard. I am thrilled though that Teacher called and we were able to resolve it easily but I’m confused as to the whole circumstances of ice cream being served to the class? Had Dad not been home at the time BOY surely would have been left out.
There is a question left unresolved (at least in my mind) regarding the administration of Benedryl prior to epi pen when only certain symptoms are present. I did provide Benydryl but would like be reassured that school personnel have the correct action plan regarding its use. I don’t recall getting an answer on that from NURSE with regard to current district policy. His doctor’s orders are clear and may conflict with your policy and we need to get clarity here.
I have a more complete safe snack list that I can provide to TEACHER to share with the class parents to make their snack selection easier. I’d like to know if that is ok for her to use. I gave her a copy of it early on and had hoped to get “clearance” on it sooner.
Is there anything that BOY needs to improve on – i.e. hand washing, communication, etc?

I'll have to start another thread...
but WOW...
we have a new nurse - who had a new form - 3rd nurse - 4th form
many of the agreed upon things have not happened
BUT the good news is that the new nurse doesn't seem to know the district policy to ignore benedryl orders....so I didn't tell her ...and the new form that she picked had a better action plan anyway
she's just a bit scattered - but I'm ok with that - I think she is competent

I posted the link to this thread in the Resource sub-board in the
"504 Links and Tips" thread.
Didn't check to see if it was already linked in that, just wanted to be sure.

we recently had a little bump in the road again and dh and I employed the same helpful BUT WE KNOW OUR STUFF attitude....
they were stunned (all new players)
the district nurse TOLD ME about FAAN

I'm like ...yeah...I know who they are
but reading this thread again was nice...
eggallergymom - I think you need to step back and try to remove emotions - approach like a lawyer or surgeon - anyway...I know how hard it is ((hugs)) to you....you are not alone!

He doesn't need a 504 - an IHP will act as his 504 : Page 3 = 504 winning arguement; Page 5 - one month in - (Read 6,278 Times)
)
You know, just as a resource?
