  1. Second guessing myself

    KittyKatRN replied to KeeperOfTheIceRN's topic in School

  2. Christmas Gift Commiseration Thread

    KittyKatRN replied to jnemartin's topic in School

    My bosses gave me a blank card with just their two first names on it LOL. Thankfully my secretaries and I all do a gift exchange. I definitely feel the love from them more than admin

  3. Transition to school nursing questions

    KittyKatRN replied to WonderousIvy's topic in School

    It all depends on your local school district. You might get lucky that your child's school is hiring a school nurse at the same time you are wanting to get into school nursing. But in my...

  9. Left in the Dark

    KittyKatRN replied to BooBooCrew's topic in School

    I am so sorry this is happening. It is the same in my district. Even though we have a nurse lead, we have not been made a part of the decisions at all. Keep advocating for your voice to be...

    KittyKatRN replied to Keeperofbandages's topic in School
