Unity Point Methodist In -School Health

is a joint venture with

Unity Point Methodist Health and Pekin Public School District 108,

 to provide healthcare services to all District 108 students.

Our goal is to keep students healthy, safe and ready to learn.

 

Start scheduling your students school health exams for Kindergarten and 6th grade now so they will be prepared for the 2013-2014 school year. See links to the left for guidelines and forms.

To the Parents of Students with Medications at School: 

 

  This is a reminder that all medications must be picked up by an adult before

the end of the school year. This includes all meds that were prescribed by a Dr.  We are not able to send extra or left over medications home with students. The only thing we can send home with a student is asthma related meds. We can send home OTC meds, such as

Tylenol and Ibuprofen IF we have permission from the parent/guardian.

 Any medications not picked up will be disposed of per protocol.

  Thank you for your cooperation and you may call your child’s health clerk if you have any questions or to make arrangements for pick up.
