    Neck and eye injuries

    BunnyBunnyBSNRN replied to conscientiousnurse's topic in School

    You did the right thing to send the kid home - with the report of pain and dizziness, I probably would have instructed the parent to seek medical attention or at least call the kid's doctor. With the...

    What do you school nurses do for the month of December??

    BunnyBunnyBSNRN replied to littlebit3's topic in School

    I'm in the same boat as Supernurse01, I get paid year round. Maybe you could do home health - something that is flexible on hours and you could keep one or two pt's during the year for a little extra...
