Guidelines for the Care of Students With Food Allergies At-Risk for Anaphylaxis to Implement SB 27 (82nd Legislative Session)
Round Rock ISD food allergy health plans (IHP) will be individualized for all students who have food allergies. Once notified of the student’s allergy, a working partnership with students, parents, student’s physician, school nurse, counselor, food services, and other Round Rock ISD personnel, as appropriate, begins. Upon receipt of signed medical plans and parental consent, the individual health plan (IHP) will be developed. Round Rock ISD requires annual compliance training to teach all staff to recognize an allergic reaction and how to use rescue drugs such as epinephrine auto-injectors. In depth training will be provided to appropriate staff members as the principal and school nurse deems necessary. In the case of severe life threatening allergies, elementary school nurses will send letters to other parents of the class requesting parents to voluntarily refrain from sending the allergen food in their child’s belongings during school or after-school activities, celebrations or parties. The principal will designate a food-allergy friendly area or lunch table. Hand washing guidelines for staff and students will be enforced. The custodial department will be instructed to use commercial wipes and cleaners that remove the allergen from the hard surfaces. Non-food items will be adapted in the curriculum for those classes who have students with food allergies. The transportation department will also be notified, and trained to recognize the specific reactions to life threatening allergies, if applicable. While Round Rock ISD cannot guarantee an allergy-free environment at school, the district is committed to doing everything possible to ensure the safety of every child who has allergies.

Authorization for Administration of Diabetes Management and Care Services By An Unlicensed Diabetes Care Assistant (UDCA)
Under HB 984, each school must train other employees to serve as Unlicensed Diabetes Care Assistants who can provide diabetes management and care services if a nurse is not available when a student needs such services. Such services include the administration of insulin or, in an emergency, glucagon. Round Rock ISD has trained staff at each school to provide such services. HB 984 further specifies that an Unlicensed Diabetes Care Assistant exercises his or her judgment and discretion in providing diabetes care services and that nothing in the statute limits the immunity from liability afforded to employees under section 22.0511 of the Texas Education Code.
