Shalom SBC Consent to Treat 25-26 English

Informed Consent for School-Based Health Clinic Services as provided by Shalom Health Care Center Inc. for 2025-26 School Year
Attention Parents/Guardians:

Your student's school and Shalom Health Care Center have partnered to operate a school-based health clinic in the school building. The goal is to help your family by providing these medical services for students while they are in school, assisting your child's physician with their healthcare needs, and providing access to high quality healthcare for those who do not have any healthcare services.

Our clinics are staffed with Registered Nurses (RNs), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), or Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) such as Nurse Practitioners (NPs) or Physician Assistants (PAs An APP has a Master's degree or higher, and has been trained and licensed by the state to diagnose and treat. Our services are not intended to replace your child's primary care provider.

In accordance with Indiana State Law, all families wishing for their students to receive health services from Shalom School-Based Clinics (SBC) must have the student's Parent or Legal Guardian sign and submit a Consent to Treat form and complete a brief medical history each school year. This information provides our medical staff with the most up-to-date information for your child. Any information given will remain confidential as part of your child's medical record. The consent form will be invalid if any portion of the form is not fully complete.

Important:
- This consent is accepted at any school with a Shalom School-Based Clinic.
- This consent is valid for the entire 2025-26 school year (July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026).
- Parents/Guardians may provide a written request to withdraw consent and treatment at any time.
- Parents/Guardians are responsible to notify Shalom clinic staff of any changes to the student's health history, or guardianship and/or demographic information.
- This school-based clinic program is provided at no cost to you or your family. However, to ensure our ability to continue to offer school-based clinic services and care for your child, Shalom will bill for services and collect from any third-party insurance your child may have. For this reason, we require your health insurance information be provided in order to provide services. Families will not receive a bill for any services provided in the school-based clinics.
