First day of school updates

Published

Just posting about the first day for me. Third year here and going strong. This year seems to be a good one, hopefully. I had only 15 students today! This is something great! My first year I had 56 kids on the first day, with one having to be taken to the hospital for a broken ankle (Slipped on stairs going down.) Second year was 32 and this year only 15. Kids were good, no issues all day, just typical medications and small stuff.

How was your first days?

Specializes in School Nurse, past Med Surge.

I started back on the 7th, kids came back on the 15th. I'm probably doing to jynx myself, but I feel like it's going very well. Getting paperwork done, not too many sick kiddos (yet), pretty calm. But, MAN...our kindergarten class is crazy! Lots of needs.

I still have a stash of ammonia inhalants...

Sternal rubs work nicely as well:blackalien:

We had one who would frequently faint to avoid classwork and tests. About the third time I got called to the classroom I did a sternal rub. He jumped up and screamed, "What the #&%$ are you doing??" He got referrals for cursing and lying. Never happened again.:roflmao:
