Subject: Portable Student Health Records?
A perennial question at our school has to do with keeping current student
health and emergency records available to adults who accompany students on
field trips and oversees trips. We invariably end up printing out mounds of
paper that go in binders with the trip chaperons. I am always a bit uneasy
as to whether or not the data is up-to-date and if it will be available whe=
n
it's needed.
We have considered using electronic records stored on a USB drive, handheld
device, or computer but are leery of ER's and other emergency providers
accepting this information in the even that a student requires emergency
treatment.
Does anyone have a solution that is working well for them other than paper?
