[QUOTE="slsh, post: 26001, member: 8"] I don't know "legally", but... we've never had a nurse at thank you's IEP mtgs. While I realize common sense and IEPs don't always go hand in hand [img]:wink:[/img] I would think that if there is no related service in the IEP requiring medical treatment (ie, are medications given at school?) then she does not need to be there. in my humble opinion, aside from needing the list of medications in case of emergency, no discussion re: medications should be taking place at an IEP mtg unless there are side effects they need to know about. I simply do not discuss medications with- any IEP team because it's not in their realm of expertise and I sure don't need their "input". I'm pretty cranky after 15 years of the whole spec thing, especially in this state, and I actually *am* going to request that Boo's school nurse not attend the next IEP mtg. Confidential information is being discussed, it's on a need to know basis, and she doesn't need to know since she does *not* provide nursing svcs for him (SD pays for a 1:1 nurse) and she does nothing but complicate matters and further handicap my son. Another thought would be could you possibly have it written into the IEP that absolutely no "medical treatment" be administered at school? Boo's always had a health plan, a specific outline of what to do if X happens. School nurse is not part of that plan, call Mom figures prominently in the plan. [/QUOTE]
