    jess11RN replied to Cas1in72's topic in School

    I have found that my level of testy-ness is directly related to the amount of kids that I see before the school day even begins

  2. Crying at work

    jess11RN replied to freckles23's topic in General Nursing

    I have found that when I'm in an intense life or death situation, I break down in tears afterwards. I'm solid during the time, but after that huge adrenaline rush, it all catches up to me. They don't...

  3. How many students do you see per day?

    jess11RN replied to Cas1in72's topic in School

    I have about 300 students at the school I primarily manage. On average, I see about 6-10% of the student population per day. This Includes daily medications and

  4. I just can't

    jess11RN replied to BunnyBunnyBSNRN's topic in School

    I think feet are gross too, but like Dr. Pimple Popper, it's oddly satisfying. Give it a try #peerpressure

    jess11RN replied to BunnyBunnyBSNRN's topic in School

    I'm sorry that you're going through this. Hang in there. This job is mentally draining. Some days moreso than others. Can you get out of your office and go for a quick walk around the building? Or,...

  9. Texas school sets dress code for parents

    jess11RN replied to kidzcare's topic in School

    I either got it from Amazon or Walmart...I can't remember.

  14. "Heating Pads"

    jess11RN replied to CanIcallmymom's topic in School

    Yes! I LOVE my ice maker. Got it at the end of last year. It is a godsend. The kids can take their ice pack with them and I don't have to worry about it not being returned. The ice maker was a little...

  19. When nurse is needed outside of the clinic

    jess11RN replied to Feral.Cat.Herder's topic in School

    No, I wouldn't have been laughing at the time either. Having a mental picture in my head of a teacher so upset and anxious thinking that a student who was vomiting was not capable of walking to the...

    Unless it's glaringly obvious that something is broken, I give them an ice pack and send them back to class. If they return I'll make a call home. I'll also make a call home if I'm unsure or...

  24. Natural Consequences

    jess11RN replied to NurseMom1972's topic in School

    Does it make me sound old when I say kids need more natural consequences like this? I had a kid come in asking for an ice pack for his hand. Why? I asked him. Well, because he was playing the hand...
