As a registered childminder, I will always discuss processes and procedures for the administration of medication before the contract begins. I have public liability insurance which covers me for administration of medication with parental permission.
I confirm that under no circumstances will medication be given to a child without prior written parental consent.
All medication will be stored in their original containers securely in an appropriate place, clearly labelled with the date.
I will make sure that I fully understand and am familiar with the child’s needs and where appropriate have taken appropriate training.
Any medication that I administer will be recorded and will require a parent’s signature.
