Policy 3500F: Blanket Consent Form for Health Care Services for Minors

REQUIRED FORM 

RISE CHARTER SCHOOL 


Blanket Consent Form for Health Care Services for Minors  
 

Providing blanket consent is optional and may, instead, be given on a case-by-case basis. Blanket consent may be withdrawn by a parent at any time. 

  

[Note: This title must be in bold, 30-point font and the sub-header must be in bold, 24-point font.]  

 
[NOTE: This form is to be provided to students’ parents/guardians at the beginning of each school year.]  

  

Dear parent or guardian, 

  

The purpose of this form and the attached copy of the Charter School’s policy on Student Health/Physical Screenings/Examinations is to provide notice of all health services offered or made available through the School by the Charter School or by any private organizations and to provide notice of the School’s policy on physical examinations and screening of students and to obtain parent/guardian consent for these services.  

  

The Charter School will provide, under reasonable circumstances, nonemergency first aid services to a child appearing or representing to be sick or injured, such as dressing minor wounds, applying topical agents, providing fluids or ice, and performing checks to identify minor illnesses.  
 
The blanket consent requested in this form applies only to the health services or examinations for which the parent/guardian has provided permission below. A parent or guardian is not required to provide blanket consent. If blanket consent is not provided, the School will seek consent on a case-by-case basis when consent is required. This blanket consent does not limit or replace the School’s authority or obligation to respond to a medical emergency. Consistent with Idaho law and School policy, the School may provide health care services without prior parent/guardian consent when School staff reasonably determine that a medical emergency exists and: 

  

  • The health care service is necessary to prevent the minor child’s death or address serious bodily harm; or  

  

  • Despite a reasonably diligent effort, School staff are unable to contact the parent or guardian, and the health care service is furnished to prevent loss of life or serious physical illness or injury to the minor child.  

  

Emergency care provided under these circumstances is not conditioned on the parent or guardian signing this blanket consent form. 

 

The School will provide the following additional health services or examinations which can only be provided with parental permission or in the event of an emergency as described above:  

  

  

Health Service or Exam 

  

Initial to Indicate Permission to Conduct the Health Service or Exam 

  

Preventative health and wellness services and screenings as described in Policy 3500 

  

  

  

Administering or assisting with the administration of medication as described in Policy 3510  

 
 
(Parents/guardians are responsible for providing the medication to the school office for administration. The school does not provide medication for students.) 

  

  

  

  

 

Emergency care as authorized by law and described in Policy 3540 

  

Parental/guardian consent to this item does not limit the School’s authority or obligation to respond to a medical emergency when prior consent cannot reasonably be obtained. 

  

  

Appropriate management of all health conditions with parental consent 

  

  

  

Any health services the Charter School deems appropriate
