Legal requirements for including S2 S3 and S4 drugs, medications into first aid rooms and first aid kit?
under workcover and other nsw Acts, what must be done to gain approval to have drugs and medication e.g. asthma puffers, epi pens. included in workplace first aid rooms and first aid kit in the workplace and first aid kit outside of the workplace e.g. hiking
a risk assessment would have to be carried out, as would consultation near staff, a description of the likely hazard to be found in the workplace - dust - allergens.
what else?
I AM IN NSW AUSTRALIA, SO LOOKING UNDER NSW LAW
I would be most grateful for your responses
Answer:
I doubt exceptionally much that you will be able to enjoy medications such as S3 and S4 contained by first aid rooms and/or kits.
It's outstandingly hard to find somewhere specifically even legally allowed to administer an S2 drug to anyone.
Because of the legalities concerning medication being given to people with allergies to different meds, near isn't a great deal that any business/school etc can hold in first aid kit and/or rooms.
