Can any one advise please on how I can change the practise where first aid
personnel are administering paracetomol,immodium.asprin,panadol.throat
sweets and a whole host of creams and lotions.
On taking up the post last year I was advised it could not be changed as it
had always happened and would undermine the first aiders.
I have gradually reduced the amount of medication given out and the kind. I
am very uncomfortable with this practise and refused to sign guidelines
saying what they could administer.
My post is about to become permanent but I feel this has to be clarified
,has anyone out there got the same situation and if so how is it managed.
Many Thanks in advance for any support or advise.
Joan
