Health Concerns forms?

[kskashmir]

I am a new school nurse who is taking over for nurse who retired after 20 years. She was not use to using computers and has not really used any updated forms. We are supposed to get out health concern lists for each grade to the students (all while starting a brand new program that does not work on the health side yet) and I am wondering if anyone has a default type list they use, or any suggestions to make it go smoother? I am currently looking at multiple years of papers that haven't been gotten rid of and trying to figure out who is still in what school and who isn't.

The format changed when I pasted this but it may be a starting point for you...good luck.

A point you may want to bring up to your administrators is that medication administration on paper is really a bad idea legally. Research MAR and you will find numerous issues, you really need to invest in eMAR to cover your license and the school.
