Since there are many circumstances in which children face the possibility of being exposed to injuries or illnesses when their parents aren't around, there may be times when someone other than you takes care of your child. To be absolutely safe, teacher or family member. That person may be a baby-sitter, be sure to include sufficient information so your child or children can receive medical care in case of an emergency. A separate dated consent form is necessary each time you leave town. Please ask the adult you have designated on the consent form to keep it handy. It should be taken to the hospital or doctor’s office if a child requires medical treatment. However, medical release forms are necessary to ensure their safety. Although the wording you choose for your forms may be slightly different than the forms you see online, you should provide written authorization for a responsible adult to approve any necessary emergency medical treatment for your children.
