  1. My advanced patho course was completely proctored exam based. There was an in depth covering of patho utilizing organic and biochem as foundation. We did zero papers for the class.

    Perfect.

    Always transfer person after administering epi. I think it's around 1/5 of the time a second dose is required or further intervention. edit: from the AAAAI: "The child's physician should provide guidance for when and how much epinephrine to use if areaction occurs. The effects of epinephrine may stop after 15 to 20 minutes. A second dose ofepinephrine may be needed if there is inadequate response to the first dose, or symptomsrelapse within 15 minutes of the first dose. Multiple studies indicate 20% of acute anaphylaxisrequires more than one dose of epinephrine for adequate treatment All children who require epinephrine should be transported by EMS to the emergency room to monitor for late phase anaphylaxis which can occur in up to 20% of acute anaphylaxis and can be more difficult to treat." https://www.aaaai.org/Aaaai/media/MediaLibrary/PDF%20Documents/Libraries/What-you-Should-Know-about-Anaphylaxis.pdf
  4. I could have chosen a lesser quality education, but I quit my job and found a schedule that works around my uni's.
  5. I attend lab hours every week for insight into real world practice and scenarios. There is so much that needs to be learned that we need baseline knowledge prior to utilizing the expansive resources available online or through mobile devices.
  6. My patho course was extremely difficult, taught by a phd in physio who is well-respected in the field from ivy uni, proctored exams, and there was a heavy emphasis on organic and biochemistry throughout.

  8. Well-done. Situations like this occur once in a while, and they tend to go unnoticed.
  9. Seems fine. She is not altered, nor is she unstable. If parent requests for 911, then it is a different story. Focus on interventions to provide a safe school environment from this point forward.
  10. I had a parent who would do something similar daily. Parent eventually felt confident in my ability, and stopped coming.
  11. Smart move! In the past, I have addressed the issue myself. Assessed student to determine factors r/t to foul odor (ie. refuse to shower, not wearing deodorant, parent refusing to wash clothes, etc.). Then, I notified the parent. It ends up with either, the parent is not sufficiently taking care of the child, or providing education re: healthy hygiene habits.

    Your role in a IEP vs 504 is completely different. It requires more training than what is posted online. Seriously, though, advocate for yourself and acquire the necessary training. You've been given good advice in this thread.
  13. The responses in this thread are terrifying. Follow physician orders. Not all students require carb coverage. If you have any concerns or input you should consult provider assuming you have a release.
  14. Independent management orders exist and they're typically completed after demonstrated competence.
