Do you get any real and regular supervision?

[Jedrnurse]

As a school nurse in a private school, I'm sort of neither fish-nor-fowl. I have a nominal supervisor, but have not had formal supervision yet this school year. My development as an employee seems like it's all up to me. (Not necessarily a bad thing...)

How 'bout other folks?

This was a big reason as to why I left my last job. I was willing to put up with a lot, but the constant micromanaging got to be too much for me.

Were they a non-nurse as well?

Yes. It was the superintendent.

I work exclusively in our PreK program and have a supervisor (our Early Childhood Coordinator) and another boss above that one (our Director of Community Education) but really I have an incredible amount of autonomy which I love. I hate being micro managed. It's one of the reasons I left my hospital job. I am on our district teacher's contract so I have to be formally observed doing my job 3-5 times a year. Usually they will come watch me provide diabetes care and I also teach health lessons in the classroom (Germs & Handwashing; Taking Care of Our Teeth; Sun Safety) so they'll come watch me do a lesson. Day to day though I am very much left alone. Which again I love. ?
