New Fraser Health School Web Information – Non Covid

 

We received the following information from Fraser Health, please check out the new website below:

Dear Superintendent, Principal or School Partner, 

In previous years, school nurses provided education to school personnel on topics such as anaphylaxis, seizure, and diabetes management. However, we are unable to provide this support at this time as we are currently involved in school immunizations delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

We recognize the importance of having the knowledge and skills to ensure students are safe while attending school. We have created a webpage, Medical Conditions at School,  to cover important health topics on the Fraser Health website. Within each topic area, we have embedded videos or hyperlinks to credible sources to be viewed at your convenience. These resources are consistent with the information that would have been disseminated by the school nurse and we encourage you to share this with your school personnel. 

 If you, or any of your staff, have questions, please contact your local public health unit manager. 

 Sincerely, 

 Ariella Zbar MD, CCFP, MPH, MBA, FRCPC 

Medical Health Officer, Fraser Health Authority
