Do you run any special groups?

Hello,

This is my 2nd and 1/2 year as a full time middle school nurse. I am currently a tri-leader of an LGBTQ group that takes place every other week here (but I run it with two other teachers). I enjoy talking with the students and getting to know them, however it is not really medically related (I decided to help out as many of the students were coming to me for support/advice, etc) .

Anyway, I was thinking of putting together a group for my students with diabetes. Just a support group they can come to and talk about their week, their numbers, highs and lows (both figuratively and relatively speaking)… and any other questions or concerns they have. I just didn't know how to go about approaching the idea.

I'm asking if any of you run any sort of support groups and how you got them up and running. I'm assuming I'd have to get the ok from my principal first, then go to the parents and then present it to the students. But I was hoping for some advice so I sound like I have half of an idea before I bring it up to any of them. lol

If you have any advice.. I'd love it. Thanks in advance!

Jennifer

    I wish I could do a club like these but we don't have many Diabetic students. The only thing I could do is open my anime club to get my students to relax and just do things they want to do and help them meet new friends. They never have time to socialize and this is a good opportunity to find like-minded friends. Plus most of my kids are all the shy quiet kids and I honestly saw them open up a lot after the first day.
