■ Consent to Medical Treatment and Medication Administration
I acknowledge and agree to the following regarding medical treatment and medication administration for the student’s health management and emergency response at school.
1.In the event that the student becomes ill or is injured during school-sponsored on-campus or off-campus activities, I consent to the student receiving medical treatment at a medical institution when necessary. In emergency situations, the school will immediately contact 119 emergency services, and school staff may provide minimum necessary first aid in accordance with Article 5-2 of the Emergency Medical Service Act until professional medical personnel arrive or as instructed by emergency responders.
2.During off-campus activities, students may carry and self-administer medication only with prior parental/guardian consent and when accompanied by a physician’s prescription or medication instructions. Parents/guardians must accurately provide the medication name, dosage, and method of administration in the [Consent for Medical-Related Matters] form and submit the prescription and consent form to the administrative office. Medication must be prepared in its original labeled container or pharmacy packaging so that the student may self-administer it independently. When necessary, school staff may assist with visits to hospitals or pharmacies; however, all medical judgment and treatment decisions shall be made by licensed medical professionals.
3. On campus, students are generally prohibited from carrying or self-administering medication. If medication is required, parents/guardians must submit the medication to the school in its original labeled container. Submitted medication will be stored under the supervision of the school nurse or designated staff members. Assistance with medication use may be provided when necessary; however, school staff will generally not directly administer medication. Exceptions may be made for conditions requiring immediate emergency treatment, including anaphylaxis (epinephrine auto-injector), asthma (inhaler), or diabetes (insulin). In such cases, students may be permitted to carry and self-administer emergency medication with a physician’s prescription and prior parental/guardian consent.
4. The school has a duty to protect and supervise student safety in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. In emergency situations, medical measures shall be carried out by licensed medical personnel employed by the school, 119 emergency responders, or individuals certified as emergency medical technicians, within the scope of their duties and applicable laws. In principle, expenses related to medical treatment, medication, and hospital transportation shall be borne by the parent/guardian (parent or legal guardian). However, where the school is found legally liable due to intentional misconduct or gross negligence, such expenses shall be handled within the scope permitted under applicable laws and regulations.
5. I agree to cooperate with measures required under the Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Act and the school’s infectious disease response guidelines. I also agree to cooperate with requests from the school nurse team for submission of related documents and understand that expenses incurred for hospital visits, including medical and transportation costs, may be charged to the parent/guardian.
6. In emergency situations such as anaphylaxis, the student may first self-administer necessary emergency medication, including an epinephrine auto-injector, insulin, or inhaler, in accordance with a physician’s prescription. Subsequent emergency measures shall follow the school emergency response procedures described in Section 1 above.
7. Health and medical information may be provided to relevant school personnel solely for purposes related to student health management and academic support in accordance with Article 23 of the Personal Information Protection Act. This consent may be withdrawn; however, certain services may be limited as a result.
In addition, during off-campus activities (including field trips, school excursions, and experiential learning activities), medication and health-related information submitted by the parent/guardian may be shared, to the extent necessary, with accompanying staff members and relevant administrative personnel for student safety management and emergency response purposes. The school will collect and use prescriptions, consent forms, student medication lists, and other health-related information submitted for the operation of off-campus activities only to the minimum extent necessary, and such materials will be securely destroyed within 14 days after completion of the off-campus activity.
