Medical Needs

At Kings Hill School we support children with a range of medical needs and work closely with outside agencies including School Nursing, General Practitioners and Paediatricians, to ensure provide the best possible care.

Supporting Children with Medical Needs Policy

Further advice is available here.

First Aid training has been delivered to many of our staff team and our Early Years Practitioners have attended Paediatric First Aid courses.  We also access specific training for staff working closely with children with more complex needs such as Diabetes, Anaphylaxis and Heart Conditions.

We have a defibrillator in school and our staff are trained to use it in an emergency, this is also available for use by the general public.

Individual Health Care Plans (IHPs)

All children with medical needs will have an Individual Health Care plan written in conjunction with school and their healthcare professional and/or school nurse. These are reviewed annually to ensure all knowledge is kept up to date. All staff are made aware of any changes made.
