    I find that creating deadlines a few days before the actual deadline helps!! Maybe next year make your deadline 10-12 for processing

  3. Why do teachers

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    Why do teachers think kids are so fragile??? They act as if every paper cut or tiny glue gun burn is going to kill the poor

  4. Do you always send home after Vomiting 1x?

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to KeeperOfTheIceRN's topic in School

    Or, if you think they are lying, you exclude them for that day and the next and when parent sees they are fine, they may not lie again. LOL!!! I like to use that one on kids who vomit in the restroom,...

  5. C'Mon Now!

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    Why do MS students leave half of their lunch sitting on the cafeteria table to come see me for something that has been going on all day (or sometimes all year)? Come before you sit down or after you...

  6. Monday morning madness

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to 100kids's topic in School

    Why is this always a school problem??? Happened at slumber party (not school sponsored), treated, other parents notified - END OF

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to KeeperOfTheIceRN's topic in School

    Our policy states vomiting twice in 24 hours to exclude. Love this! All vomiting is not created

  8. Enablement Overload

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

    Yes!!! I will never pretend to know the struggles of other specialties, don't even lurk on their sites unless I truly would like a question answered (you know, check with the experts). I have noticed...

  11. Otherwise Becomes Aware - Input Requested

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to OldDude's topic in School

    As a school nurse in Texas, I must say this is one of the reasons why I will always stick with the secondary crowd!!! However, I so support those that choose the don't ask, don't tell way of...

  12. What would you do?

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to jess11RN's topic in School

    I have always been a member but mostly because I like the CE credits I can do online since I am a certified school nurse and need 75 hours of school nurse specific hours. However, if my only benefit...

  13. Missed it

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to BluebellRN's topic in School

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

  17. How to splint a broken finger or dislocated elbow/shoulder?

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to stephrooth's topic in School

    I think that the problem is the triangular bandage itself is useless. This many school nurses can't be the problem. And so glad to hear I am not the only one who has problems with those

  19. Athletic Trainers

    EnoughWithTheIce replied to EnoughWithTheIce's topic in School
