know the plan before you need it
Drawn for this page. The adult closest to the student in an emergency is often an aide; knowing the plan ahead is what makes it work.

How to use it

  1. Start a checklist with the student’s code or initials and the date.
  2. Ask the teacher or nurse which plans the student has.
  3. Mark each one honestly: known, not read yet, needed with no plan, or does not apply.
  4. Find out where the plans are kept and who you call first.
  5. Read the urgent plans first and report the gaps today.

What it is for

Why aides need it

Aides are often the adult nearest a student when something goes wrong: a seizure on the playground, a reaction at lunch, a student leaving the room. The plan only works if they know it.

Your role

Some steps, like giving medication or checking blood sugar, may be done only by staff who are trained and assigned by the school under its policy and state rules. This checklist does not assign them.

What it is not

Not a health plan and not training. It shows which plans exist and which you still need to read, so you can ask.
