Let me respond to your questions.
Though information has been sent re; these questions, we are updating the Web site to include these changes.
1. There is a Practical nurse on campus in the Dispensary. Students in need of a doctor are scheduled for off campus appointments asap.< /SPAN>
2. Students who see a Psychiatrist are taken to an appointment off campus. There is a charge for transportation.
3. Meds are given by the Dispensary staff which includes a Pharmacy Technician.
4. Clay Erickson does not practice medicine and is not a Licensed Physician.
Please understand that we have and will continue to be diligent to provide for the medical needs of our students. Our new procedure better establishes a relationship between parent and physicians.
If you have specific questions, you may contact Clay Erickson directly.

Clayton Erickson was the Director of Addiction Services at Hidden Lake Academy. Mr. Erickson was also dispensing children's medication at HLA. Mr. Erickson counseled the children re: addiction.
Addiction counselors in Georgia are certified by two agencies - the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Certification Board of Georgia and the Georgia Addictions Counselors Association
Neither agency ever issued any certification for Clayton Erickson.
Erickson was licensed to practice medicine in the state of Washington until 1993.
His licensed was suspended by the Washington State Medical Disciplinary Board.
The Disciplinary Board determined that Erickson "engaged in unprofessional conduct" and obtained Vicodin, Tylox, and morphine "for his own use and without authorization or prescription."
In 1998, Erickson petitioned to have the suspension lifted.
The Disciplinary Board denied the petition and determined that Erickson "failed to present evidence that he is currently capable of practicing medicine with reasonable skill and safety as required by the Agreed Order."
Erickson's license was revoked by the Medical Commission in May 1999.
Mr. Erickson was uncomfortable with Buccellato's insistance that M.D. be kept after Mr. Erikson's name on HLA's web-site. Buccellato was said to be insistant as it was good for marketing. The State intervened in 2006 after parents filed complaints. Mr. Buccellato was forced to remove the M.D. after Erickson's name.
Apparently, it depended on who was writing an email to which parent in disclosing exactly who was responsible for handing out medication. When the nurse was fired, the receptionists, night staff and anyone who was available handed out meds. Trust me, even after licensing if you are a wage earner, and the ORS even after licensing asks who hands out medication, it won't be them.

What you don't seem to understand is that HLA was run under the premise "DON'T ASK, DON'T TELL". An example: Marla the Special Needs teacher was gone in Februaruy of 2005. HLA had IEP students specifically for Special Needs. Until Marla wrote her open letter(blowing the whistle) and was silenced by Buccellato's goons "Quirk and Quirk", parents did not even know there was no Special Ed. teacher. She was brave, paid dearly with Buccellato's wrath. It was now May of 2005. If it was not for Marla, no one would have known. Eight months later, HLA replaced her, under pressure. It was no different with the meds. As long as Buccellato remains on the thrown he will do as he wishes, unless he is caught with his hand in the cookie jar, no pun intended. Again, his staff are chosen for the most part because they are weak, needy or have/had a 'hidden past' like Clay which guarantees his leaverage over them and the odds are highly in Buccellato's favor that they wouldn't turn him in.

Ah, come-on Bruce, lets keep it in the garbage thread. You were doing really good up until now. Jill is trying to get the thread back on topic and push the subject of "drug dispensing" along a little faster, I think.
