    How do you get a sub?

    SandIsMyGlitterRN replied to Jenniferocious's topic in School

    So hard to get reliable subs! I must call subs from our list if I need one. If I cannot obtain one, I have to ask a nurse from another school in our district to come and care for my students. Worst...

    Parent harassing me in clinic

    SandIsMyGlitterRN replied to KiddoRN73's topic in School

    I was just discussing this with a co-worker. I have had this same situation before. If a CPS report is made the parent always assumes it was the nurse. What an uneasy feeling to have when a parent...

    Which Thermometer Do You Use And Why?

    We have a large percentage of children with special needs in my school so I do use a no-touch thermometer. Sensory issues can make getting a temp with any other thermometer a nightmare. I do not...
