FISD Student Medication Changes
Beginning in the 2024-2025 school year, the practice in medication administration on all
campuses is changing. In past years, FISD nursing staff have administered medication supplied
by a student’s parent/guardian with parent/guardian consent and have not required physician,
podiatrist, or dentist authorization. The Texas Board of Nursing has given guidance to school
nurses regarding this practice, and ALL medications including over-the-counter medications will
no longer be given by licensed nursing staff WITHOUT a physician, podiatrist, or dentist
authorization AND parent authorization.
If your student needs ANY medication including over-the-counter medications, nursing staff will
require a physician, podiatrist, or dentist authorization in order to administer the medication in
accordance with the Texas Board of Nursing licensing standards. This includes common items,
such as Tylenol, Ibuprofen, etc.
FISD was provided with the updated interpretation of the Nurse Practice Act on Friday, Aug. 2
and has since communicated with doctors and pediatricians in the area regarding the update to
our medication policy.
As always, the safety and well-being of our students is our top priority. Should you have any
questions, please reach out to your campus nurse.
