At Monarch Montessori School, we do not administer medication. We have chosen to allow parents options, which include coming into the facility to administer their child's medication if needed. Otherwise, medications are to be given at home. We do not require MAT training for our staff. Should we be required to administer epi-pens at our facility, additional training would be needed and staff would need eat the cost. Our policy has been to call emergency personnel if a child is in crisis although staff are trained in pediatric first-aid/CPR. The liability of administering medication incorrectly is too great. We would prefer not to be held responsible for that part of a child's care. We are not trained medical personnel and should not be required to perform the duties of medical personnel as a part of the school's routine operations.
