Training for administration staff

I agree with Hailin when he said the administration staff should be trained to handle medication storage. Since they cannot administer medication, it is necessary to have a trained health care professional on staff, even if not a nurse. If the child would have died, the school would have been responsible for the death because they did not have a trained professional on the premises or because they medication storage was inadequate. The policy where medications must be kept in the office seems like a sensible enough but would do much more good if the office was in a central location to the school premises and this is not always guaranteed. Some people may argue for medicine to be store in each classroom, but this would underestimate a student’s chicanery, even in elementary school, not all teachers are so careful, and it would be harder to keep track of expired medications, if there are so many classrooms.
