Sec. 34-18.23. Medical information form for bus drivers and
emergency medical technicians. The school district is encouraged to
create and use an emergency medical information form for bus drivers and
emergency medical technicians for those students with special needs or
medical conditions. The form may include without
limitation
information to be provided by the student's parent or legal guardian
concerning the student's relevant medical conditions, medications that
the student is taking, the student's communication skills, and how a
bus driver or an emergency medical technician is to respond to
certain behaviors of the student. If the form is used, the school
district is encouraged to notify parents and legal guardians of the
availability of the form. The parent or legal guardian of the student may fill
out the
form and submit it to the school that the student is attending. The
school district is encouraged to keep one copy of the form on file at the
school and another copy on the student's school bus in a secure location.
