My med policy states that we rarely ever give medication.
I do keep tylenol or advil on hand in case a child spikes a high fever here. I want to be able to give them a fever reducer to prevent a febrile seizure. I've had to do that a couple of times in the last decade.
I don't give antibiotics. I would only give that if it was ordered four times a day or more and that never happens.
I don't do respiratory therapy treatments.
I do give benadryl cream or spray for my two little girls with mosquito bite allergies
with a dr's order
. Their allergies are very severe.
I never administer teething medication or cold medication.
I don't have medical or behavioral special needs children in my day care and most likely won't for the rest of my career.
