First Aid
In cases of sudden illness or injury to a student or staff member, first aid will be given by school staff. Further medical attention to students is the parents’ or guardians’ responsibility, or of someone the parents or guardians designate in case of emergency.
Each principal is charged with providing for the immediate care of ill or injured persons within his/her area of control.
In each school, procedures for handling health emergencies will be established and made known to the staff. Each school and school vehicle will be equipped with appropriate first-aid equipment.
All employees are expected to know where first-aid supplies are kept in their work areas. Designated employees in each building shall hold current first-aid cards. In compliance with Oregon Administrative Rules, each school shall have, at a minimum, at least one staff member with a current first-aid card for every 60 students enrolled or an emergency response team per building. Such teams shall consist of no less than six persons who hold current first-aid/CPR cards and who are trained annually in the district and building emergency plans.
