    ihavealltheice replied to ihavealltheice's topic in School

    Wow! We have about the same amount of students and sounds like a far bigger office!! I'm jealous lol! I would let them rest in my office and still see other kids, but keep the lights off and instruct...

  4. Pre-K Nurses HelP!!

    ihavealltheice replied to KH_RN6's topic in School

    Yes! I have them say beep and it works wonders! Another thing that I do is ask the PreK teachers to condition them during circle time. I found a youtube video that has examples of the exact beeps...

  5. Immunization Question!

    ihavealltheice replied to KH_RN6's topic in School

    My PreKers are technically in school, so they go by the school laws, not childhood. But, I believe they're fairly close if not the same anyway. As far as exemptions go, that varies state by state. In...

  9. elementary/middle school diabetics

    ihavealltheice posted a topic in School

    Where are your 5th graders with diabetes at in the grand scheme of "total dependent care to complete self care?" I have a 5th grade student who is almost exclusively dependent for care (my first year...

  10. CBD Administration in School? Policy?

    ihavealltheice replied to SchoolNurse91's topic in School

    In IL, it is now legal and schools have to administer it if the parents request and go about it in a policy approved manner. It has to be in a form that will not become a burden to others (ie, not...

  11. Any Nursing Moms?

    ihavealltheice replied to jnemartin's topic in School

    As far as yesterday, email the teachers and ask if they truly did come back to class. If they did stay and hang out, the teacher probably doesn't realize it. Call the kids out on it!! I'd do one of...

  12. Parent with Borderline Personality Disorder

    ihavealltheice replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I'm sorry you're dealing with this. We have quite a few parents here that are obviously mentally ill and it is just sad. I feel awful for the kids who have to live with it every

  13. CBD Administration in School? Policy?

    ihavealltheice replied to SchoolNurse91's topic in School

    If it is legal in your state, check with your state's board of education. It was just made legal here and our state board of education put out a webinar about it laying out what we need to

  14. elementary/middle school diabetics

    Right?! I have difficulty sugar coating things. I either don't talk or it ALL comes spilling out, so wish me luck! She might hate me after this

  15. Chronic Head Lice

    ihavealltheice replied to Purple036's topic in School

    First off, make sure admin is aware and can help partner with you. Sometimes if the principal gets involved, things are taken a little more seriously. You can also refer the entire family to a lice...

  16. Working while sick

    ihavealltheice replied to littleduckrn5's topic in School

    No, I wouldn't wear a mask. Chances are, their fellow classmates are coughing, sneezing, and wiping their snotty noses all over them anyway. I'll wash my hands more frequently and wipe things down,...

  17. elementary/middle school diabetics

    ihavealltheice replied to ihavealltheice's topic in School

  19. Gave an EPI pen for first time in years

    ihavealltheice replied to cid1's topic in School

    Great job!!! You saw your student's condition worsening and you acted upon it. Situations like this always remind me of Natalie Giorgio. She didn't eat it either, but epi was administered too late...

  20. Grant money for Hearing and Vision Equipment

    ihavealltheice replied to KH_RN6's topic in School

    Yes. In IL, we can't use the spot screeners at all. I wish we could, especially for our PreK students that are either super young or are either nonverbal, autistic, or just super

  21. Grant money for Hearing and Vision Equipment

    ihavealltheice replied to KH_RN6's topic in School

    Try Donors Choose. BUT, I'll tell you, it's the ancient machines that usually stand the test of time

    ihavealltheice replied to NurseAlice's topic in School

    Same here. This what I received today: Guidance for schools K-12 schools may have exchange students or other students who attend their school and have traveled to various areas in Asia, including...

  23. Really not appreciating the attitude today

    ihavealltheice replied to nursex23's topic in School

    The attitude and the entitlement coupled with the expectation that I should just accept the attitude and entitlement while keeping a smile on my face and not stick up for myself is making me want to...

  24. First day back after mat leave

    ihavealltheice replied to jnemartin's topic in School

    I'm not going to say this in a mean way, but don't do it. It is overwhelming for the first few years as a seasoned nurse, let alone a new grad. You need to get some peds or med surg experience and get...

  25. How? Just, HOW?!

    ihavealltheice replied to ihavealltheice's topic in School
