Administering meds to other staff?

i asked this question in the pt safety forum but i need to be here.

I work as a sub nurse and wanted to know if this is true.

It was told to me by another school nurse that if a teacher or other staff member asks for meds (ex. Tylenol) we can't put it in their hand because we do not have orders and if anything happens it will be on you.

She said we can just point them in the direction of the meds and let them get it themselves

At this school we do not have to log any meds given to teachers in the computer system.

Now i do think she is wise,but some staff take more than the prescribed dose,or in some cases,the bottle goes missing.

Nurses in my district are not permitted to dispense meds to staff. But our secretary has some things available for them.
