Well annoyed this morning and if i say the truth still am . My first mindee of the day arrived this morning at 6.30 , first thing she asks me if i will give her child 2.5ml amoxicilin at 7.30 am , filled in permission form etc .
When i went to administer medicine i noticed it said 5 ml , phoned mother and left message for her to contact me with regards to discrepancy as to amount . Gave the child 2.5 ml deciding i could give the extrfa 2.5 ml when she phones me .
Mother phones me and i explain the problem and she informs me that it is her other sons medicine as she had not been able to get an appointment for the doctors and she had some left over thought she would use it until she saw her doctor.
I was bouncing to say the least .
Immediately wrote a statement in my incident book and got mother to sign when she arrived . Informed her in no uncertain terms that i was not going to give someone else is medicine to her youngest and also that she had no right to withhold antibiotics from her other son who should have competed his full course of medicine . This is a Polish family who i have been experiencing a few problems with lately .
