School nurse: "The seizure action plan needs a wet signature and a fax number." Me: "A fax number." Nurse: "For the safety of the children." Me: "The children have phones. The plan does not." Back-to-school paperwork. Every August, a document designed to keep a kid safe in a classroom gets routed through a technology that peaked during the first Bush administration. Send this to whoever owns the fax machine.
ACCURACY CHECK

No clinical claim - satire of school health documentation workflow. A written seizure action plan is a real, standard school document; the card makes no claim about its content.

No clinical assertion. School seizure action plans are standard practice; the card satirizes the transmission method only.
