The Student Health Leader develops and manages systems relating to the information, documentation and management for students with identified medical concerns.
Working together with the College Wellbeing Team and Administration Team, the Student Health Leader ensures all processes and procedures are compliant with the health and wellbeing of students.
Clonard has a First Aid room dedicated to students located in the General Office. Students are able to access the First Aid room in the event of sudden illness or accident. All Office Staff hold First Aid Level 2 qualifications and regularly undergo training for CPR, anaphylaxis, asthma, epilepsy and diabetes.
In the event that students are too unwell to return to their scheduled classes, a parent or guardian will be contacted to pick up the student. If the student is unable to be picked up, alternate arrangements can be made with the General Office.
Medications It is also important to note that only medications that are included in an student action plan. Eg: anaphylaxis management action plan, asthma management action plan or on a medical authority form, can be distributed to the student.
Paracetomol is not given at the main office in accordance with Clonard’s First Aid Policy.
