re: Anyone ever have their kid in ambulance from school?

It’s my understanding that the school is “in loco parentis” when the child is on campus during school hours. Meaning they are able to consent in place of a parent.
As far as the ambulance bill, and maybe hospital bills, you may be able to get that paid by the school’s insurance policy since the kid was in their care, since they were responsible for him and therefore his injury.

That’s pretty normal, like you the only thing concerning is the narcotics being administered. The monitoring most definitely is SOP, especially with kids as they can go from perfect to dying in a flash.
I'd say that's a crazy paragraph. From pretty normal to death in 2 sentences.
OP, I'd be pretty miffed over the entire paramedic deal honestly but that's because I can't stand illogical people who overreact.

It was fentanyl.

Yeah. It can cause deadly respiratory depression. I can see them reasonably giving it if the kid was screaming in pain.

It was fentanyl. And yes, you can get suspended if you keep advil in your pocket and not have the nurse give it to you.

Not really. Either you want the school to be able to make non emergency medical care decisions for your kid without speaking to you or you don't. They are one in the same.

I'm glad they helped and quickly. I'm not so happy they gave him those drugs to a minor without parent permission and now expecting a $5K bill for a 1.5 mile ride to the ER.
Teachers already give tranny drugs to students what’s the difference?

This case was emergency care, though. They called an ambulance. They didn’t have x-ray on site to know it was just a dislocated shoulder. These are PE teachers and EMTs.

Yeah, it’s possible. I got ER bill already. My wife was there and consented, I’m less worried about that.
I don’t have anything from paramedics/school. Maybe it is covered and a non issue? I’m hesitant to call and was waiting to take action until I get a massive bill.
I don’t like how it happened but at the end of the day he was taken care of. But potentially this is not a trivial amount of money at stake should this massive bill come

A dislocated shoulder isn't an emergency. His life was not in danger. The outcome is no different whether he gets pain meds and rides in an Ambulance for $5k or if he waits 20 minutes for his mom to get there and drive him to the ER or home if that's what they decide to do.

Would you trust a PE teacher or a paramedic to make that determination? The people who are first to cry lawsuit for calling the paramedics are also the first to cry lawsuit if you don’t call the paramedics if it ends up being a serious injury.

YES. If he's not dying, call the fricking parents.
I trust them to call me WAY before I trust them to decide what kind of medical care he needs regardless of cost or consequence of the DRUGS they want to give him.

I assume it does. But administering it and not disclosing to parents that a condition is an ambulance ride is my concern

The OP is right here to answer that type of conjecture. So, ask away

The school has insurance for this.
With your insurance and the school's insurance combined you should have to pay very little out-of-pocket.

Did you want your son to be in pain?
If my son racked up a 5k medical bill he’d be feeling pain! I’d get the belt and he wouldn’t be able to sit for a week!

Yes because insurance companies are known for paying everything they can and not trying to get out of it because they judge the ambulance ride as unnecessary.

When you send your kid to public school (or private) you are authorizing them to act in place of you, the parent, if an emergency occurs. There is no way the teacher could have known it was ONLY a dislocated shoulder and not something life-threatening.
