In the "Health Record," parents are required to commit to providing complete and accurate personal information and health status of their child (especially students with health problems such as food allergies, asthma, cardiovascular issues, psychological conditions, or those requiring special care) so that homeroom teachers and medical staff have a basis for adjusting daily learning activities and diet at school accordingly. The "Health Record" must be submitted before admission. The school encourages parents to continuously update any changes in their child's health status with the homeroom teacher and the school.
The school's medical room has the responsibility and capability to provide first aid to students. School medical staff will be on duty at the school regularly during office hours to ensure the most comprehensive and attentive monitoring of students' health. Students who feel tired, unwell, or unable to participate in learning activities should ask permission from the teacher teaching the class to go to the medical room. Students will rest in the medical room for no more than 40 minutes as regulated. In case the student is in pain/sick/tired and cannot continue learning, the school will contact the parents to pick up the student.
At the beginning of the school year, the school will collaborate with reputable medical facilities in Hanoi to organize periodic health check-ups for students to detect early common school-related diseases such as nearsightedness, scoliosis, cardiovascular diseases, tuberculosis, goiter, etc. The summarized health check-up results will be sent to each parent through the homeroom teacher.
The school organizes mandatory health insurance registration for students as regulated. In case parents have purchased insurance for their child beforehand, parents need to provide a copy of the insurance card for the school to manage.
To ensure safe, reasonable, and effective medication use, avoiding the risk of drug poisoning or side effects due to improper use, parents should note the following regulations on medication use and student health care at school:
- Parents are responsible for registering with the school the types of medications their child needs to use, dosage, concentration, usage, duration, and any accompanying regulations.
- Parents who need to send medication for their child to take at school should discuss it with the homeroom teacher and must sign a commitment to send medication in the "Medication Registration Form" provided by the school. Parents hand over the medicine and return the "Medication Registration Form" directly to the school's medical staff. The school refuses "Medication Registration Form" signed by the homeroom teacher or boarding staff instead. Parents are responsible if they allow their child to bring medicine to school and use it arbitrarily without going through the school's medical room.
- Parents must monitor the expiration date of the medicine sent to the school and must submit a request to add more medicine or change medicine. Parents are responsible for preparing medicine daily, per meal for their child. The medical room does not accept storing medicine at school.
- The school only accepts prescription drugs, with expiration date, label, original box/packaging, and instructions for use, dosage, concentration, and storage. The school does not accept unpacked medicines, without name, brand, no production date and expiration date.
- Homeroom teachers and boarding staff will be responsible for reminding and taking students who are studying in class down to the medical room to take medicine on time.
- When there is no need to continue using the medicine as prescribed, all prescription drugs will be returned to the student's parents.
Parents authorize the school (in situations that the school believes and reasonably determines to be urgent) to seek medical advice and treatment for students and agree to pay or reimburse the school for the costs of consulting and treating students.
The school is responsible for ensuring the general safety of all students. Therefore, when a student has an infectious disease, parents must inform the homeroom teacher and let their child rest and be isolated at home to avoid spreading the disease to other students.
Students who come to school and are found to have an infectious disease should inform the homeroom teacher/school medical staff. After checking the student's health status, the medical staff will perform isolation if necessary, and at the same time coordinate with the homeroom teacher to inform parents to arrange time to pick up the student.
Common infectious diseases: hand, foot and mouth disease, measles, mumps, rubella, mumps, dengue fever, malaria, scarlet fever, diarrhea due to Rotavirus, trachoma, chickenpox, pinkeye...
