  1. Any school nurses out there with 40 years?

    ABRN2012 replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    Well I dont have 40 years but I am with you on the ridiculousness of what comes to see the nurse now. When I was in school for one we didnt have a nurse and two we were made to stay in class unless...

  5. school nurse as a mom

    ABRN2012 replied to catia108's topic in School

    I work at the same school (campus) as my children. I do not go on field trips but that is just because my children prefer to just go with their teachers and class. If there is a special event then I...

  6. Anyone else have to fly solo

    ABRN2012 posted a topic in School

    Is anyone else here the only nurse for their entire district? And if so how do you schedule out your day? I currently do not have a schedule and I need some help. I have a part time nurse that...

  7. Student Body Odor

    ABRN2012 replied to AzElemNurse's topic in School

    I agree that it is just being dumped on you. I got that request several times last year and already had one ask yesterday. My response now is that it is not a crime to be stinky. Yes it is...

    ABRN2012 replied to AzElemNurse's topic in School

    Same here! They do not do that in my schools anymore. I have begged to bring this back. But 4 years into this and still no puberty/hygiene

  10. Anyone else have to fly solo

    ABRN2012 replied to ABRN2012's topic in School

    ABRN2012 replied to nmr79's topic in School

    Yes sounds like a no win situation for you. I have moved schools twice now in my district. I am back at the school I started at but it is a much better set up for me now. I say go for

    ABRN2012 replied to nmr79's topic in School

    I had a similar issue about use of my office by parents. It wasnt a diabetic student but this parent used my office to deal with some health issues for her child from time to time. She criticized...

  13. Lice checks

    ABRN2012 replied to scout mom's topic in School

    Wow! A lawsuit! That's crazy. I would love to hear more about how this came about. Did the parents feel that their child was being singled out? I have tried to tell my admin this very thing but they...

  14. Lice checks

    ABRN2012 replied to scout mom's topic in School

    I am in your same boat. So I feel for you. I provided all the new recommendations and had several meetings with the superintendent last year only to come back this year and they revised our policy to...

  15. Teachers ??

    ABRN2012 replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Overall I feel like they are glad I am at the school but I wouldn't say that I am respected. I think they feel better knowing in the event of an emergency that I am here. My first two years at one...

  16. Who is back already?

    ABRN2012 replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    We started back last Thursday. The other nurse for our county quit the week before school. So I am now running between 2 campuses each day. Yay

    ABRN2012 replied to MrsNurse08's topic in School

    Field day is today for me! Thanks for the tip on the ice packs. I never let them "take a rest" in my office because of missed class time but today I think if they are "injured" enough to come see me...

  18. What is wrong with people?

    ABRN2012 posted a topic in School

    I am "drowning" in itchy bug bites and sunburn. It has finally turned "summer weather" here thankfully. But I swear to you guys I do nothing but deal with bug bites and sunburn. I have even gotten...

    ABRN2012 replied to ABRN2012's topic in School

    Congrats on being a survivor! And I too cringe because I have seen so many people my age(30+)have melanoma. These kids are gonna suffer later for what their parents should have prevented them from...

  20. I nearly lost my cool this morning...

    ABRN2012 replied to Supernrse01's topic in School

    I would be livid! But it is the kind of thing that would happen to me too. My thing is why do they think we are the all knowing "bug people". Why do they think it is our job to get rid of said...

    ABRN2012 replied to ABRN2012's topic in School

    ABRN2012 replied to nmr79's topic in School

    I will say I am very bitter over it for some reason this year. Ive never cared before that the teachers got recognized and I, the nurse, did not but I guess knowing how much I run my legs off and do...

    ABRN2012 replied to cjl_RN's topic in School

    In my district we fill one out for anything other than minor cuts or scrapes. It is not filled out by the nurse. It is filled out by whoever was in supposed to be watching the student when it...
