SCHOOL HEALTH POLICY MANUAL

School health programs may provide screening, preventive and some treatment services to children who do not receive adequate health care. The School Health Program emphasizes health education, health promotion, disease prevention and identification of health problems with psychological etiologies. Within each school there must be at least one health professional who is clearly identified by students, parents and school personnel as representing the school health program. The school nurse is the ideal person to fill this role.
