Prior to her return to school, an individualized health plan (IHP) will be developed for the child who has:
1. Recently developed a penicillin allergy.
2. Been newly diagnosed with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
3. Been treated for head lice.
4. Missed two weeks of school due to mononucleosis.
2
Rationale:
1. A child who is allergic to penicillin will not receive this medication any longer, and therefore should not encounter any problems related to it at school.
2. An IHP that ensures appropriate management of the child's health care needs must be developed for a child newly diagnosed with a chronic illness such as diabetes.
3. A child who has been treated for head lice can return to school, and does not need an IHP.
4. While a child who has missed two weeks of school will need to make arrangements for makeup work, an IHP is not needed.
