1 WALNUT RIDGE PRIMARY SCHOOL 625 Route 517 P.O. Box 190 Vernon, NJ Voice (973) Fax (973) Rosemary Gebhardt Principal Dear Parent/Guardian, The State of New Jersey revised the statute (NJSA 18A: ) governing the emergency administration of epinephrine. This law was adopted because a school nurse may not be immediately available to assess the severity of an allergic reaction to administer epinephrine for pupils who cannot administer the medication themselves. According to the provisions, the parent/guardian must provide the following: Written authorization for the administration of a pre-filled single dose auto mechanism containing epinephrine. Written orders that the student requires the administration of epinephrine for anaphylaxis and does not have the capability for self-administration of the medication. Food Action Allergy Plan completed and signed by the physician and the parent/guardian. A signed statement from the parent/guardian acknowledging their understanding that Vernon Township Board of Education shall have no liability as a result of an injury arising from this administration. The parent/guardian is responsible to inform the school nurse of any school-sponsored activities that the student may be involved in throughout the year. The parent/guardian is responsible to provide the health office with a current, pre filled, single dose auto-injector mechanisms containing epinephrine and for replacing the mechanism when it has expired. Permission is effective for the current school year and must be renewed for each subsequent year. The State of New Jersey requires that every student with an epinephrine order be assigned a delegate, if the parent does not wish to have a delegate for their child, they must submit a written note. The delegate is NOT able to administer antihistamines such as Benadryl. We have attached the required forms for your completion. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our office at Sincerely, Renate Gratzl RN
