Dear Post Graduate Student:
We are very pleased that you have been accepted to the Bristol
Tech Post-Graduate program. Before you can
enter the program, the following medical information must
be given to the school nurse.
The Connecticut Technical High School System, as mandated by Connecticut
law, requires that all full-time adult students born after December
31, 1956, provide evidence of adequate immunization against Measles
and Rubella (German Measles).
1) Entering students must submit written proof
of the required immunizations prior to attending school.
If unable to provide proof of immunizations or you have never received
the immunizations, then the immunizations are available at your
primary care provider, or walk in clinic.
2) School policy requires that all full time students
submit a physical examination prior to acceptance. The
form is included with this packet.
3) If you need any medication during school
hours, the prescriber of the medication must complete
a medication authorization form (enclosed). Over-the–counter
medication must be delivered to school in its original, unopened
container and labeled with your name. All medications
must be given to the nurse. The only medications a student
can self administer are asthma inhalers, diabetes medications
and EpiPpens. You will need special permission to carry
these. Please contact the school nurse for more information.
Over-the-counter medications, i.e. Tylenol are available at
school and forms will be given out the first day of school
if you should need this.
4) Phone number: If you have any
questions or would like to speak with the nurse regarding
your health concerns, then please call 860-584-8433- ext. 307 or
e-mail me at: sheri.silverman@ct.gov.
The schools website is: www.cttech.org/bristol/
5) Health Plan: If you do not have a regular
health plan, you are strongly urged to purchase
accident insurance. Either a 24-hour plan or during the school
day plan is available. Forms
will be given out at the beginning of school.
Sincerely,
Sheri Silverman, R.N.
