  3. Transfer Schools

    I personally have had to train the after-school teacher with a sign-off sheet of training and give them a tote of supplies that comes from the parent.
  5. Help Type 1 diabetic and lunch

    Hi, you've already gotten so many great answers. I personally have worked at all grade levels. So for elementary, with a new type 1, I would prefer the student eat in my office for a while with the parent's permission. Of course, the older kids would...
  6. MSN - which degree is right for a school nurse?

    Education or Management unless you hope to go further later in the clinical setting.
  7. Headaches and covid 19

    No, I am not sending them home just for headaches. They usually have to have at least another identifying symptom of covid or my judgment entails going home. The parent will be called if it is severe and not better after vitals, rest, water, or a his...

  9. Staying or Going?

    Yes, I'm returning, and no I haven't been given any time bonus other than the one-time bonus all teachers got at the beginning of September. We have had a few leave but the district believes the community has waiting people to help to fill it.
  10. Do school nurses ever give narcs?

  12. Medication Error in School

    Just my two cents. I believe with an investigation, most get a warning for first offenders with no serious injury to the student/patient. Also, it depends upon, repeat nurses, type of medicine, duration received, and the response from the supervisor ...

  14. Tired of being "the bad guy"...

    I had been getting the bad push back at the beginning from the teachers wanting to know who was quarantined from their classroom and feeling their rights and safety were being infringed upon. Finally, Admin sent out a memo telling the teachers that t...

    I feel like everything is on standby. Fun, freedom, and adventure. I go to the same places, mostly curbside or takeout. I try to find projects to work on at home, not school-related. We have reported working in-person since Sept. I wish we could wo...
