Hi everyone,
I have just completed my first year as a school nurse and really love it. I kept a spreadsheet all year of my visits and we have a general end of year summary sheet for each office but I'd like to create a new one. Could you share what method your schools/offices use to keep your stats? (i.e. total visits, incident reports, meds etc)
Thank you!

my charting software can print a report. Though i've never been asked for those stats since i've been here.

Hi Missi! I am in Ohio here and the schools in my district are required to submit an End of Year Report.
Included in this report are:
#children with nonprescription meds
#children with prescription meds
#children on daily meds
Vision screening numbers. Breakdown by grade # done/# referred
Hearing: same as vision
Monthly tally visits for students: For example: August 210/200. That would mean we saw 210 kids and 200 of them stayed in school.
Then we would have a section on how many diabetics, asthma, food allergies, epi pens, seizures, orthopedic devices, hearing aides/cochlear implants.
Then the last section is Detailed description of what we did this year in the clinic. We have to be detailed because in Ohio we don't have a strong school health program and we have to justify our time in order to keep us employed.
Hope this helps!
Melissa
