The school administrator is responsible for assignments within the school setting. A student s parent or legal guardian must provide written consent to the school for any individual to provide requested medication administration and/or individual health care services to the student. See NDCC (9)(g), , and W h a t i s t h e n u r s e s r e s p o n s i b i l i t y a n d l i a b i l i t y i n r e g a r ds t o t h e i m p l e m e n t a t i o n o f N D C C a n d N D C C ( 9 ) ( g )? The licensed registered nurse needs to be familiar with the provision added to the existing section of law, NDCC , which identifies persons who are exempt from the provisions of the North Dakota Nurse Practices Act. The new provision, set forth in subsection 9 (g) of NDCC , exempts a person that provides medications, other than by the parenteral route, within a primary or secondary school under a program established under section if the individual has received education and training in medication administration and has received written consent of the student s parent or guardian. These laws must be read together to fully understand the scope of school authority to provide medications to students. W h o s u p e r v i s e s m e d i c a t i o n a d m i n i s tration i n s c h o o l a n d a s s e s s e s i n d i v i d u a l c o m p e t e n c y? The authority for school staff to administ e r medicat ions is a relationshi p between the school and the authorizing parent or legal guardian. The accountability for safe and effective medication administration is with the school administrator. Nurses administering medication in a school are accountable under the North Dakota Nurse Practices Act (NDCC Chapter ).

I f a s c h o o l n u r s e i s p r e s e n t i n a s c h o o l b u i l d i n g w h e r e m e d i c a t i o n a d m i n i s t r a t i o n o r i n d i v i d u a l h e a l t h c a r e s e r v i c e s h a v e b e e n a s s i g n e d t o s o m e o n e o t h e r t h a n t h e n u r s e, c a n t h e n u r s e p r o v i d e t r a i n i n g / e d u c a t i o n t o t h e s c h o o l s t a f f o n s a f e p r a c t i c e s? Yes. If medication administration has not been assigned to the nurse, the nurse may provide training/education to an individual who will provide medications and/or individual health care services within a primary or secondary school according to NDCC ((9)(g). The registered nurse, who verifies a competency, is accountable for verifying and documenting that individual s competency on that given date, but not for the quality of the service provided by that individual over a specified period of time. This is not considered delegation according to the North Dakota Nurse Practices Act and the school nurse would not be liable for errors occurring in the actual administration of medication by another individual. However, accountability for the training of safe medication administration lies with both school administrator and the licensed registered nurse who provide s training/ educa t ion. W h a t l i a b i l i t y e x i s t s f o r t h e s c h o o l n u r s e i f a h e a l t h p r o b l e m w i t h a s t u d e n t a r i s e s a n d t h e n u r s e h a s n o t b e e n i n v o l v e d i n t h e p l a n o f c a r e? The school nurse is required to follow standard emergency procedures. The student s parent or legal guardian is ultimately responsible for notifying the school of a health concern (i.e. medication administration and/or individual health care services.) The school nurse is not liable for relying or acting upon any incorrect or incomplete information provided by the school, parent or legal guardian. W h o c a n d o i n j e c t i o n s a n d o t h e r i n v a s i v e p r o c e d u r e s i n t h e s c h o o l s e t t i n g? License d nurses and others as authorized by law.

A register e d nurse may delegate nursing intervent ions in accordance with the Nurse Practices Act ( NDCC Chapter ). Sections and allow nurses to delegate and supervise nursing interventions to a person exempt under the Nurse Practice Act; however, parenteral (injections or intravenous) routes are not authorized pursuant to the exemption set forth in NDCC (g) of the Nurse Practices Act. Licensed nurses are accountable to identify acceptable nursing interventions on a specific client by an unlicensed assistive person on an individual basis. The individual to whom the nurse delegates must be registered on the Unlicensed Assistive Person registry or another registry recognized by the board.
