Dcb has been with me p/t over a year now. I recently received an updated medical report and learned child is now prescribed EpiPen for allergy and Ventolin rescue inhaler for asthma. I printed out the appropriate Medication Consent forms required by my state for dcd to have pediatrician complete.
FF a few weeks, I have repeatedly asked dcd for forms. He said he lost them so I reprinted. Another two weeks later, no forms. I asked dcd again and informed him I would not continue to accept dcb without completed forms. He informed me that dcb’s mom ended up picking up forms from pediatrician and he had to make arrangements to get them from her.
When he finally gets forms from her, it is another updated medical report with same medications noted. He claims pediatrician told him that report was the same as the forms I gave him. Absolutely Not. I know what I printed twice and they were Medication Consent forms.
He claims he doesn’t know what happened to the forms, is blaming the pediatricians office for losing them and wants me to print them a third time.
Everything I ask of this dcd turns goes the same way. I feel like I’m nagging my teen kids.
I left a message for my licensor asking where my responsibility lies in getting the correct forms. Licensors record of returning my calls isn’t the best either.
I can’t really contact the pediatrician directly as it’s not my child.
There is a history between dcd and dcb’s mom going back and forth and blaming each other for every little bump, scratch and bruise on the boy. To me, it’s all been basic boo boos that happen to all kids that age, but I document everything in my health check to be safe.
I don’t really want to be involved if this child has a reaction or asthma attack on my watch and I don’t have the medication to help him. What would you all do? I’m thinking of terming.

No attendance until I had both the forms and the medications in my hands.
