Help With Staff Taking Medication Policy Pls !

[Guest]

Im at home today updating policies - such fun ! Im totally stuck on a policy for staff taking meds and their fitness to work - can anyone help please .

Are you thinking of things like

- storing medication safely, away from children?

- informing management if they take regular medication

- Discussing 'fitness to work' when taking medication (especilly if there is a warning about not driving/ using tools when taking the medication) - perhaps a statement that management can ask the person not to work if they are unfit

- having a care plan' for staff who have an ongoing condition (e.g. diabetes) so everyone knows what action to take if the person has an attack
