An Individual Health Plan (IHP) is developed for students with chronic health concerns when the District Nurse discerns that the health problem could affect the student’s education. The IHP will be a part of the Health Record and include the care plan, modifications needed, and an evaluation process.

An emergency care plan will be developed for students who have health concerns that could lead to an emergency situation. The plan will include the student's name, medical complication, emergency procedures to be followed, the person(s) responsible for responding and evaluation process.
