   Ha! Now I've been having teachers come to my office to tell me stories of this mom going off on various people, including them... Just solidifies that it's her, not me :)

   Yes, LOVE the kids. Well, most of them. Just yesterday, Ankle Scrape Girl gave me the dirtiest look a child has ever given me! Her mom must be feeding her hatred... But thank goodness for my district nurse! She flat out told the mom that if she doesn...

   Definitely bee stings I'm starting to realize that... I had another mother get angry with me over the phone because her son had a fever and she needed to come get him. Damned if you do, damned if you don't!

   And yes, I have one lady that I call for everything. She's a thorn in the school's side, and is rude to just about everyone, so we call her if any of her kids make their way to my office. SnowyJ, that's my criteria for calling í ½í¸Š

   Yep, that's how the district nurse and I felt about it. Really, my only "mistake" here was not calling the mom. However, either way the outcome would have been the same. Of course I always give care to those who trickle into my office at the end of ...

   rainbow33 replied to rainbow33's topic in School

   This sounds vaguely familiar to my story! I suppose the one thing I could have done differently was call the mom- although the mom was already here seeing as school was already out for the day :\ But instead, I opted to send a non-bleeding, bandage...

   Thank you all for your replies and advice. Everything is incredibly appreciated on my end! So this lady just won't stop. She is now accusing my district nurse and me of "interrogating" her daughter when the DN asked to look at her stitches. And she'...

    But judging from the picture that was shoved in my face, it just looked like a normal, healing scrape. It looked scabbed, and didn't look like any stitched cuts I'd seen during my ER rotation in school.

    rainbow33 replied to rainbow33's topic in School

    We're not sure... Our district nurse called the girl into my office that day to look at her ankle, but she said "my mom said not to take off the bandaid." The DN tried to persuade her to let her take a peek, but she wouldn't budge. Either way, what ...

    Thanks for your reply. That's about what my district nurse said as well. I guess I have to focus on the 99.99% of parents who are kind and grateful for my care.

    Good morning, all! I'm not completely new to allnurses, but new to this group. I'm a newly licensed LVN working as a nurse in an elementary school. I've figured out quickly that there is a huge learning curve as far as practicing nursing in a school...
