   New to subbing

   LikeTheDeadSea replied to Just me.'s topic in School

   Although some parent scan be less than friendly, I always recommend calling the parent and just saying, "Hey, I'm a sub today and although I read the paperwork for your child, I know that every diabetic is unique and I just wanted to touch base with you to confirm, since you're the expert on your child's trends." Also, welcome welcome! ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

   I hope this passes in NJ

   The Church of Universal Wisdom is based out of Medford NJ. You can pay them for a fancy letter. No chapel/meetings. If you deep dive on it, it was made by a couple chiropractors, only one of them is now alive per a news article Here is their website that still looks like it was made in the 90s: https://www.cuwisdom.org/index.php

   I've gotten orders that have looked like this, which is always a fun phone call to make. I've even had an office nurse go, "Well you know what that they meant, don't you, you can't just make it work?" ...eyeroll...

    Staff/faculty

    LikeTheDeadSea replied to pennyeary's topic in School

    I always say that if they have a health concern, they should contact their Primary Care Provider as soon as they open, or discuss with the Principal their ability to stay in the work environment, as I do not dismiss/excuse adults, you are responsible for yourself. I mention that fever/vomiting/diarrhea can imply numerous things and that they can potentially be contagious, but I am not here to diagnosis, so if there is anything suspect, PCP or a walk-in clinic are great options.

    LPN to RN worth it?

    LikeTheDeadSea replied to Schoolnurselpn's topic in School

    My mom always told me that education is never wasted, as you never know what the future will hold. Even if the additional credential is sitting unused in your back pocket for years, if one day you decide or need a career change for whatever reason, the RN may open more opportunities? If you have the time and can work the finances out now, it may be a good security net in the future.
