Does your school have an NP also?

I'm not a school nurse and don't mean to sound ignorant here... but back in my school days for my associates (10yrs ago) the school I did community time at had an NP as staff. Not every day (more like M-W-F) and I'm unsure of what she did, at the time as a student I didn't really think to ask why an APN was there. The area was more country, lower income. I'm assuming she came out of the school budget.

I'm now in my master's program and a project I'm working on has to be 'create' an APN setting (ie: like a clinic). My first thought was back to this APN in the elementary school and have been trying to 'create' my project around this.

This is only for a group project but I'm curious what the role of the APN was in the school if there was already a FT school nurse.

I appreciate all thougths!

    Hey there, I work at a pre-k and k school of over 800 students with an NP, we are both full-time. She does run out of the office often because she is the NP for the entire district, she writes up scripts for children who need services (ot,pt, speech) when students don't have their own PMD, may do a physical here and there, she also has an immunization clinic for uninsured students who need vaccs to attend school, takes all paper work from new employees makes sure they are cleared to work medically all this and so much more of course, we also have a medical officer that she will collaborate with when needed. It is pretty cool to have her as a resource and mentor, we work side by side with all those screenings.
