In providing for the safety of the students entrusted to its care, the board recognizes that the health needs of certain individual students may require the administration of such things as prescribed medications, treatment for such things as anaphylactic reaction, and so forth. On the other hand, the board recognizes that schools are not medical facilities. 

Consequently, the board authorizes the administration of medications and other health-related services in the Creighton School, by members of the Creighton School staff, in accordance with the regulations established under this policy.
