    do you think this is rude?

    Exactly. There is a policy for this I'm sure. We use the rolling carts and take them in each

    Friday....Are you there???

    Oh my gosh . . . I got so caught up in reading these threads, I forgot to call the school to say I'm keeping Spidey out another day for his burst

    Head Lice - It's True

    I'm laughing loudly here in my kitchen . . . my 14 year old who is home with an ear infection (burst eardrum) could hear

    Farawyn - you've introduced a lot of new folks to the Blue Side! Especially School Nurses who have (collectively) a great sense of humor! Thank you! I simply log-in with the same info I have on the...

    Does it always get nuttier at Christmas?

    Really? I like my laptop better. When I'm driving around trying to see all my hospice patients and trying to text the doctors . . . and then of course I simply must correct all grammar and...

    I agree; that's really

    Head Lice - It's True

    Yeah . . . but think it makes a woman look prepubescent, not "eye candy-ish" however that's another story. Nope - remember, I'm the mom who brought a poster home from Public Health with close-up...

    Does it always get nuttier at Christmas?

    We had a sexting scandal at our local elementary school. (And how do you know for sure there are no kids sexting at the elementary school level?) I must be Debbie Downer again and assert my usual...

    Head Lice - It's True

    Ok - how funny is this timing? I'm listening to SiriusXM and the show Emergency Medicine is on with Dr. Billy Goldberg and the conversation is about lice and the difference between pubic and head...

    Head Lice - It's True

    That's ok - pubic lice are not the same as the ones we see as school

    Friday....Are you there???

    My 14 year old slept next to my bed in a sleeping bag last night - ear infection/pain. He was asleep, I was reading. I glanced down at him and noticed he is starting to get a few blackheads and...

    Does it always get nuttier at Christmas?

    So glad I retired from school nursing a couple of months ago. Ah, the freedom! Oh yeah, do NOT do lice

    do you think this is rude?

    My nursing professor would have *killed* those nurses. She was very firm in telling us that dirty linen was never to be placed on the floor. I had that drilled into me so firmly that I would never do...

    Irritating spouses/family that don't understand?

    One nice thing about where I started my nursing career and where I continue to work is that the docs are more like friends and when I stopped one in the hospital hallway to fill him in one what my...

    Pretty much told to lie

    Yeah, whoa. Never heard of

    Pretty much told to lie

    Yeah, that was my impression as well. HIB means "Haemopholus influenzae" in my mind. Curious now about what it means for school nursing. As to the OP's post, I agree with the consensus here that you...

    Spouses on opposite shifts

    Saying "orien-ta-ting" where I live is like fingernails on a chalkboard. But that's been debated here for a long long

    How did you pay off your student debt?

    Lucky. We always owe taxes. I like jadelpn's advice. I try to pay ahead as well. I have about $7,000 left on my RN to

    Is it possible to get the holidays off?

    I'm hospice. We just take turns. There are only 3 nurses so we talk together and make a plan. I worked Thanksgiving and get Christmas off. I always offer to work NYE and NY's Day. I'm not a big...

    Teacher disciplining student in your office

    I completely agree that this can be a very frustrating issue when a teacher is attempting to teach. Therefore, maybe the teacher needs the help of a paraprofessional (aide) and they can make a plan...
