Confidence

Published

I just started as daycare early head start nurse/ advocate... I have to tell you every bump, skin rash, bug bite looks all the same to me... is there any way to get more confident in that area. It drives me crazy and adds to my anxiety.

Yes, please take a deep breath. I don't know what state you are from. But, this link

http://health.mo.gov/living/families/schoolhealth/pdf/Communicable_Disease.pdf . It is my one and only go-to for all my schools . It is an amazing resource. It takes the guess work out of various questionable health issues. I hope you will take a look at it and print it so that you can have it at your fingertips.

What a wonderful resource. Thank you!

Great info in there, but also check your state DOE or Public Health website to find any state specific information.
