   mimi_p replied to RNCourt's topic in School

   Hiya! I don't know about charter schools and the requirements for having trained unlicensed personnel caring for your students but because these would be licensed RNs (I would assume) you would not be delegating. They would be operating under their o...

   mimi_p replied to bsyrn's topic in School

   Happy school nurse's day to all y'all! I feel a little bummed because no one has said a single word about SND at my school but everyone has been celebrating teacher's week, all week! I'll have my little pity party over here. *pout*

   mimi_p replied to Sugarwugga's topic in School

   Thanks SchoolNurse! I, too, have just accepted a position as a school nurse -- in a large urban school district in Texas. I am nervous and excited. I am bracing myself for a little craziness over the next couple of years. Fortunately, I will be worki...

6. HELP! News might want to interview me!!!!

   mimi_p replied to StephieBRn's topic in General Nursing

   Maybe you could refer the news organization to some of your classmates who didn't find employment, with their permission. They won't have the same employer issues as you do and the news would get their story. I don't think schools would want to adve...

    mimi_p replied to ProudRN2B's topic in Texas

    There should be some Tegritys out there soon, the quality in sound is terrible and they are a bit tough to sit through for a couple of reasons, unless they redid them. What are the chances of that? :) The patho is a great idea, but if you read and re...

11. El Centro 3rd semester

    mimi_p replied to ProudRN2B's topic in Texas

    Hi ProudRN2B, Just finished 3rd and it WAS tough. Read all you can because the lectures don't cover half of it like they did the first two semesters. The first test was the toughest because it blindsided everyone. Good luck! and lgtx3 -- I don't ha...
