4. Contracts for Next SY

   cherieRN replied to jnemartin's topic in School

   I'm sorry to hear it ? that has to be so frustrating and put you in a difficult spot. My last "raise" was 50 cents more per hour so I'm nervous to see what is offered for next school year. After how much more work was put on me this year with COVID, ...

   cherieRN replied to gotcoffee's topic in NP Students

   It's definitely been on my mind but I haven't made any moves to start contacting anyone. I have friends who are physicians in the area so I think they'll be helpful with networking and connecting with preceptors. @gotcoffee I'll be starting th...

9. School Nurse Pay

   cherieRN replied to BHS Nurse's topic in School

   I'm paid hourly with no pay over any school breaks or holidays. I get 3 days of PTO. Prior to COVID there was an incentive (I think $150) if you missed 0 days of work. My pay is horrible but I'm going to fight for a raise for next year's contract.

10. Any Ohio SN?

    cherieRN replied to SaltineQueen's topic in School

    Eliminating quarantine for close contacts in school feels wildly risky to me. I trust ODH's recommendations but these new guidelines have me feeling a lot less confident that I can keep my kids safe from COVID. If I can't exclude students who were mo...

    cherieRN posted a topic in School

    Hi all! TL;Dr - After a disastrous handling of our positive COVID-19 cases, my principal is letting me put together a quarantine policy for any positive students/staff going forward. I'm collecting info from CDC, my state's dept. of health, my l...

12. Holiday Travel and Mandatory Quarantining?

    cherieRN replied to Queen of Icepacks's topic in School

    Parents won't even be fully transparent with me about if they're really isolating their child from a positive family member so I have pretty low confidence in being notified if a family is traveling. My school's principal is considering switching to ...

13. Athletics = Madness

    cherieRN replied to guest464345's topic in School

    I am so frustrated with the organized sports teams being a priority over the safety of everyone at school. We've had incidents where a parent or sibling to a student tests positive, meanwhile they've been all been at the games and practices talking t...

14. Second interview, with principal?

    cherieRN replied to schoolnursenewbie's topic in School

    I interviewed with one of the administrators and they mainly asked about my experience with special education and individualized education plans. I remember them asking about how I would handle conflicts with students, parents, teachers, etc...

15. Scrubs for short torsos

    cherieRN replied to maggdon's topic in Uniform/Gear

    5'5" with a short torso - Grey's Anatomy mock wrap scrub top and their Emma scrub top have been a decent length on me. But the game changer has been Figs' Catarina scrub top that I can just tuck into my bottoms.
