Does anyone have nurse passes that includes some Covid symptoms?

My first day back was 8/2 and the kids start 8/10.

I believe I got mine from Teacher's Pay Teacher's. It is simple but works well in my school. It has name, date time then check boxes for the teachers to check off what the student is complaining about, and a spot for the teacher to sign.

Does anyone send letters home regarding medication pickup? This year my principal wants me to schedule appointments for parents to pick up medications. I am trying to figure out how to word the medication pickup letter including picking up medicatio...

Have you tried communicating with your teachers and admin about appropriate visits to your office?

32 days on campus left for the students and I have 34 days left myself. We have been in person (some were virtual) since August.

The form looks nice. Here at my school, the parents choose to pull the student out for the telehealth appt and have the appt in the car and then bring the student back inside.

I usually don't get my contract until around my last day of work for the year. We do complete a Letter of Intent form in March whether we would like to return or not. When contracts start, I am usually one of the last people to sign, since my princ...

Yes, when I started in School Health, my previous school paid me $14.10 an hour by the time I left.

I am by myself in a K-8 school, I have 1 office. At my previous school I was paid salary. At my current school I am hourly and paid 16.48/hr for the hours that I work (if I come in during breaks or Summer I am paid for my time).

I have now taken over doing all the attendance for my school due to COVID. Is anyone else doing attendance as well? If so, how are you handling the attendance for students who are quarantined, but are participating virtually in their lessons while ...

For the record... Crayons are NOT to be put inside your cast to get that itchy spot!! Thankfully I was able to get it out.

Work with your admin, parents and school counselor!

Heartsoul are my go tos

I've had this issue once before and my admin had my back when I told the parent until I have orders and supplies that the student may not be on campus. I got orders within the week.

1) I would LOVE to have a portable ice machine in my office, I currently get ice at least twice a day from the cafeteria. 2) I have 3 glucometers, lancets and strips currently. They are all mix matched. I have requested a new glucometer for this comi...
