How many students do you see on a regular day, not counting the "full moon days"?

I see/treat roughly 15-20 students daily.

30-40, 11 daily meds. Most stuff is simple stuff though. I would say I only see like 5 kids who are actually sick.

10-12. I have 3 daily med kids. I'm in an elementary school of about 300. Most of my stuff is headaches & tummy aches.

I work in school that holds grades 1-8, we have around 550 students total. I see roughly about 30-40 kids a day and have 5 daily meds

I see anywhere between 40-50 students, sometimes more. Very rarely, less. Total population 900+, pre-K through 5th.

Average about 25. My record is 56 I think.

BUT I do not count things like band aids for a hangnail to be a visit so probably higher.

I see 20-40 on average. That is what I chart - that doesn't include some of the ridiculous stuff that doesn't warrant charting. That doesn't include our tuition-based preschool that isn't not in my system to chart and it doesn't include staff members (last month I sent a staff member out in anaphylaxis and I just sent a staff member out with a severe cellulitis.

My record is 75. I actually had to call the other schools for reinforcement. I stuck myself with a diabetic's needle that day. 1 more antecubital venipuncture and I'll be declared disease-free.

I'd say 15-25ish. Plus 7 daily meds. I had around 35-40 one day and it was insane for me.
