New To Schools

Published

Hello all!

I am new to school nursing. I run into situations everyday where I feel I am WAY overreacting or in some cases under-reacting. It is difficult to switch from an ill population to a well population for me. Is there any school nurses that would be willing to chat or PM at some point? I would greatly appreciate it. I have so many questions that I would have a hard time writing on a public forum. Thank you so much!

This forum is full of "case study" type of scenarios where we bounce ideas, constructive criticism, and support off each other.  Utilizing the search bar is a great start to get a feel for some scenarios.

School Nursing: A Comprehensive Text by Janice Selekman  is an amazing resource and goes for under $100 - you may be able to get your school to pay for it if you ask nicely and don't already have it. ? 

We're all friendly here, so feel free to ask any specifics.
