Accident Procedures
When a student is injured on campus, an injury report is sent home with the student. Parents are contacted regarding injuries at the discretion of the administration.
Only minor and very basic first aid can be provided by the school; no secondary treatment, such as changing or removing bandages, should be administered. Disposable gloves should be used.
St. Gertrude the Great ensures that all faculty and staff members are trained in emergency first aid procedures and recertified every two years.
Parents/guardians must be contacted immediately if there is any question regarding the seriousness of or complications arising from an injury to a minor.
