In the event an employee becomes ill at school, staff will assess the situation. If staff believes the symptoms and circumstances warrant, 911 will be called. If the staff members in the immediate vicinity of the ill employee are unable to, or do not have the expertise to, evaluate the condition of the ill employee, 911 should be called. The employee will not have the option of declining 911. If 911 determines transport by ambulance is not necessary, staff should contact a family member of the ill employee to transport.

 

It is not recommended that staff transport employees to the hospital/doctor.

 

An employee returning to work from emergency medical treatment must provide a release and submit it to Human Resources prior to returning to work.
