Policy & Procedure Statement:

The Jefferson Parish School Based Health Center (SBHC) will require a completed consent/enrollment form to enroll a student for services at the SBHC. This complete consent and enrollment form will be good for the student as long as they are attending school within the same school district. The SBHC may ask the parent/legal guardian to complete an annual update form. All minor children, prior to receiving services, must have a current parent consent form on file, with the following exceptions: patients who are legally emancipated or anyone 18 or older. All parent consent forms remain part of the permanent medical record. Consent forms with questionable signatures may be rejected at the discretion of the SBHC staff. A parent or guardian is defined as either a natural or adoptive parent, in case of divorce, the parent with legal custody, or a non-custodial parent if the other is unavailable. If there is no court order, either parent can consent. Foster parents may give consent for their dependents but must produce a signed document from the natural parents or court. Stepparents, grandparents, and other relatives may not give consent unless they can produce a document showing that they have legal custody. This SBHC abides by Louisiana Law R.S. 37:1262 for the utilization of telehealth in the practice of healthcare delivery, diagnosis, consultation, treatment, and transfer of medical data using interactive technology.
