ADMINISTRATION OF EPI-PEN (EPINEPHRINE) AT SCHOOL
Dear Parent /Guardian: New Jersey P.L. 2007, c57. And N.J.S.A. 18A:40-12.3-12.6 allows trained delegates for students who may require emergency administration of epinephrine by auto-injector for anaphylaxis when the school nurse is unavailable. The 2 attached forms are required for your child to receive epinephrine by auto-injector. The first form gives the school district permission to allow for the school nurse and trained employees of the school district to administer epinephrine via auto-injector when the school nurse is not physically present at the scene. It is in your child’s best interest to at least have this form completed and returned to school as soon as possible. The second form allows your child to carry and self-administer epinephrine by auto-injector and diphenhydramine. Please understand that this request may not be appropriate for your child. I urge you to discuss this with your medical provider and return this form if appropriate. If you have any questions regarding these forms please do not hesitate to contact the School Nurse. Sincerely, Ronald M Frank, MD FAAFP School Medical Inspector SCHOOL NURSE AND DELEGATE
