7 KINGSWAY REGIONAL SCHOOL HEALTH SERVICES 201 KINGS HIGHWAY WOOLWICH TOWNSHIP, NJ : To Parent/Guardian of Student Athlete: Gr: School Year: This letter is to document the plan to be in effect to meet all of your child s medical needs while participating as an athlete for the Kingsway Regional High School. Our concern has been meeting the medical needs as outlined by your child s doctor when participating in all home and away athletic events when a parent, or immediate family member designated as a caregiver, cannot attend. In the event a parent/guardian or caregiver is not present at an athletic event and Glucagon needs to be administered, a coach and the athletic trainers are trained as Glucagon Administration Delegates. We understand that there may be times when you are unable to attend all athletic events. 1. In the event that a parent, or immediate family member designated as caregiver by the Parent or Guardian, cannot attend an away sporting contest, parents or guardians will notify the Health Office, the Certified Athletic Trainers, and the Head Coach that they are unable to attend. A trained Glucagon delegate will be assigned to your child. 2. Parents will notify the Athletic trainer if there is to be a designated caregiver at the away event, and that caregiver will communicate with the Head Coach that they are present at the event. We are confident that we can always work together to accomplish our goal, which is to ensure that your child will participate in their choice of activities and that all of their medical needs and concerns will be addressed and met to ensure safe participation in the Kingsway Regional High School sports programs. Thank you again for your consideration and assistance with this plan for your child. Cc: Mr. Robert Baerman, Athletic Trainer Ms. Chrissy Ludlum, Athletic Trainer Appropriate Coaches
