Administering medicine in an early childhood setting requires careful documentation, clear parental authorisation, and safe daily practice. This ready-to-use Medicine Administration Record supports services to meet licensing expectations while keeping processes simple and manageable for kaiako.
Designed for NZ ECE services (centre-based and home-based), this form reflects the requirements for Category (i) and Category (ii) medicines, including:
-
Written parental authorisation
-
Clear instructions outlining what, how, and when
-
Daily record of administration
-
Educator and parent acknowledgment
-
Guidance around training and safe practice

I like the idea of keeping a child’s individual medicine record for privacy.
