Manage your child's medical information with SchoolCare (formerly CareDocs).

Avon Schools uses SchoolCare as a tool for parents to provide medical information about their children. The system stores student immunization information, physical exams results, medication information, and nurse visits securely and in compliance with HIPAA and FERPA regulations.  Families are able to access SchoolCare at any time from their computer, smartphone, or tablet to see their student's activity in the clinic and will receive nightly communication regarding any clinic visits that may have occurred. Please make sure you have signed up for an account.

You will receive an invitation on or around July 16 to complete your child's enrollment in the program.

Log in to access your child's information.  If the demographics are incorrect, please contact your child's school to have this corrected. 

If you have problems with SchoolCare, email support@schoolcare.com. If they can't help, contact your child's school nurse during the school year. During the summer, contact Sarah Murphy, RN.
