Is this correct??????

I'm pretty sure it is, but now I am second guessing myself! Student has peanut allergy. Student has doctor's note for epipen benadryl, etc for PEANUT allergy. student presents with seasonal allergy symptoms........... tells me to give her the benadryl, the previous nurse had always done so. so i look at the orders I have and it specifically says on it "if the student somes in contact with peanuts, do x,y,z...." no order for benadryl for seasonal allergies. student gets very angry and insists i give it to her. uhmmm, nope. student calls mom and mom says same thing.... again NOPE! did not give and mom ended up getting a separate order for benadryl for seasonal allergies. was I toooo picky? or is this correct? thx for your input.

    We as school nurses face a lot of pressure from staff, parents, students. However, we must stand our grand and protect our license!

    Standing orders sounds wonderful...how do you get such a thing? And I agree...no order, no meds. Unfortunately we live in a sue-happy society and we work far too hard for our nursing license to jeopardize it for a dose of Benadryl. Mom can come in and give it to her child, but not me!!
