Hi!
My DD is now 16, has been self carrying her meds for many years and is very independent with regard to her allergies.
What happened on this particular day was a "credible bomb threat" at her school. The whole school population was bused to another school in our district.
It had me thinking about how I never thought of evacuations when preparing her accommodations in the past when she was not independent. If she did not self carry, she would not have her epi pens or inhaler with her. On a school bus, headed to another building. Another member here had a similar situation and those students were fed at the other school.
I put it here for other parents to consider when creating school accommodations for their child. How is your child protected in the event of an evacuation? Does the school nurse, teacher, student have the responsibility for the child's allergy safety?
