2. Power point?

   ihavealltheice replied to soontoretire2020's topic in School

   I think it depends on your specific role and your level of comfort working with the programs. I do a lot of IEP meetings and manage multiple buildings, so I use Google docs/sheets (the Google version of Microsoft) a ton to write my reports and keep m...

6. Do you get any real and regular supervision?

   ihavealltheice replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

   I am based out of 1 school, but cover the IEPs for mine and 6 other schools. So, between my building admin, director of student services, director of special ED services and the other admin that I work with, I feel like I have a million supervisors. ...

8. Anyone have their masters?

   ihavealltheice posted a topic in School

   Anyone here have their MSN and have any programs they recommend? Bonus points if you're in IL. To be certified in my state (IL), we have to commit to a graduate level certificate program which includes a few graduate level classes and a 300 hour...

9. Vision/Hearing exams on preschool age children

   For the super littles like PreK, I have involved the teachers in the past to help me condition them during their circle time. I have used Youtube videos that play the tones, they practice listening to the tones and responding. Rather than "rais...

    ihavealltheice replied to Mavnurse17's topic in School

    Not that I'm aware of. I don't mind it though because I'm perfectly happy remaining in the background and flying under the radar LOL!

15. Staying or Going?

    ihavealltheice replied to BooBooCrew's topic in School

    I think the schedule is a reason why many people get into school nursing. Don't ever feel selfish or guilty for doing what is best for your family.
