Health and Medical Information

Holly Area Schools’ Medical Care Plan is a district-wide general education measure to assist the District in providing care to students with chronic medical conditions as directed by each student’s authorized medical provider.  The Medical Care Plan consists of a Medical Action Plan form and may also include a Physician’s Authorization for Prescription Medication at school.
 
Students with a chronic medical condition that requires treatment at school will be required to have a current Medical Care Plan on file in the school office.  The Medical Care Plan will be updated annually and with any prescription changes.
 
Students who require only the administration of medication during the school day will have a Physician’s Authorization for Prescription Medication at School properly filled out, signed and on file in the school office. 
 
Medication should be in the original labeled container and all over the counter medication must be in a brand new unopened bottle or container.  It is the parent/guardian responsibility to: replace expired medication (no expired medication will be given); provide refills in the new original container when needed; transport medication to and from the school office; and pick it up at the end of the school year.  The school does not store medicine over the summer. 
 
If an emergency arises before receipt of student-specific medical interventions, treatments or medications, the school district policy and basic first aid procedures will be followed, 911 will be called if deemed necessary.

Homebound and Hospitalized Students

Holly Area Schools students who are unable to attend school because of medical conditions may be eligible for Homebound or Hospital teaching programs. Eligibility is based on a physician's written certification that a student has a medical condition that prevents him/her from attending school.

Referrals should be initiated at the earliest possible time to prevent unnecessary delays in a student's education. For more information, please visit our Homebound and Hospitalized Services page.
