Nurses Pass?

[ATTACH=CONFIG]26891[/ATTACH]

Unless emergent, which a teacher should accompany the student, we require nurses passes. The previous nurse had a huge checklist one that I felt unnecessary and a hindrance. Mine simple states student name (multi cultures here so hard to spell or understand sometimes), date, time and teacher. I told the teachers that if the student can tell you why they have to see me then they can also tell me why. I've caught a couple kids in lies this way because they can't just say what is checked or written on the pass.

This!

"Third reason - I think of it if it is worthy of a clinic visit, my time, charting, etc., then it is worthy of a few seconds of a teacher writing out a clinic pass."

7th-12th and yep, passes or no go. I have sent students back to class for a pass. And because we require passes, we can catch kids skipping class and this year I caught one of my FF HS student forge a pass from me, complete with a faked signature. Teacher knew something was up, emailed me, student was not with me, showed my picture of pass. It went straight to the dean. Turns out student was vaping in the bathroom instead...

I'm shocked, I tell you! Guess where the naughty kids are now directed to go when using the bathroom? Yep, my petri dish. I cannot beat it into anyone's head how bad this is. So frustrating.
