How to facilitate school attendance for children with illnesses thanks to the PAI

The PAI is developed by the legal guardians, at their request, together with the healthcare teams of the facility concerned and the school headmaster, headteacher or director of the establishment, facility, or childcare service for children under the age of 6, who are responsible for ensuring that the procedures are clear and communicated.

A doctor must oversee the implementation of a PAI:

• Your GP or your child's specialist will support and develop the Personalised Care Programme
• Or the school (via the school nurse or a doctor from the School Medical Inspections) will advise you and recommend that a PAI be established, following your mention of your child's health conditions

All the documents needed for your doctor to prepare a PAI can be downloaded below.

The nurse at your child's school/establishment can also forward them to you directly.
 

To prepare your child's PAI, you need to complete the following information and forms:

The entire form, must be completed as follows:

• Part 1 "Administrative information" you must complete this in full
• Part 2 "Planning and adaptations" should only be completed by the School Medical Inspection doctor once we have received your information (i.e. the complete form, and, where applicable, the specific "action to be taken" form and specific liaison form)

• The prescription for medicines administered during emergencies, prescribed by the doctor who completes the PAI

In the event of a specific pathology (food allergies, diabetes, asthma, epilepsy, onco-haematological disease), specific "emergency procedures" forms (CAT), and liaison forms must be completed by your child's doctor.

Please note that the liaison form is confidential and will only be intended solely for the School Medical Inspections doctor.

These forms are more appropriate and very detailed and are therefore preferable to the basic form.

If the documents are delivered to the establishment, the words "strictly confidential" must be added.

All documents listed in step 1 - Collating the documents.

During term time, all of these should be given to the school nurse along with the child's named emergency kit.

Outside school terms, i.e. during the summer holidays, you can send them directly by post to the School Medical Inspections:

Inspection Médicale des scolaires
(School Medical Inspections)
Le Panorama A-B - 57 rue Grimaldi
98000 MONACO

The PAI will then be submitted to the Medical Inspector to check and ensure that it can be implemented by the education teams. During term time. The child's named emergency kit must be given to the school nurse at the start of the school year.

• Your child's school nurse
