    This is my 3rd year as nurse here. The nurse I took over for retired. She had been here 18 years. I got alot of the "this is the way so and so did it" the first year, but it died down pretty...
  2. How do I get out of the home?

    When I was working HH and it was getting time to leave, I'd say something like "Well, Mrs. Jones, your meds are all set up for this week, I have the refills you need written down so I can bring them...

    Mom comes in at the beginning of school year and fills out the paperwork for her kids to have MOTRIN liquid for headaches and leaves me a full bottle. Great! Last week i give a kid the last dose....

  5. Did you contract anything from a patient?

    I'm all pink and red hearts and ready for the sugar
  7. Tired of School Nursing?

    I do understand what you are saying, but honestly, its kind of nice to have a "boring" kind of job, when my home life (raising teen's) is often too exciting for me! And it really isn't all that...

  15. Morning meds

    I have 4 that I give in the AM, and 3 of those come back at noon for a 2nd dose. In an ideal world, they would take them earlier at home, but for a variety of reasons, this wasn't happening. Our...
  16. NASN School Nurse Conference 2018

    Wow, that's awesome! My school will pay for me to attend my states School nurse convention every other year, but that's it. So national convention is pretty out of reach for me. But have a...
  17. School Shooter Contingency Plans

    So scary for you! We have an active shooter plan and response in place. There is nothing specific for me. Once a shooter is announced (or heard) I have to hide in my room (or where ever I may...

  19. Non-hospital jobs for ADNs

    It really does depend on where you are at. I'm in the midwest and in my area, it doesn't matter as much as elsewhere. I knew I never wanted to work in a hospital either and I have an Associates...
  20. Stocking OTC meds at elementary school level

    I'm a K-12 school and we don't stock any meds for any student. If parents want anything available for their kids, they have to bring it it and sign paperwork before I can give it. Only thing I have...

    I hate winter week. It's pajama day. So of course, I'm in my pj's. And I have a dr. appt right after school, with no time to go home. And I forgot to bring the clothes I set out to change...
  25. Happy FriYAY

    We are not only celebrating Friday, but also the 100th day of school! The first grade class nextdoor to me counted (very slowlyyy) to 100 this morning. At least this means we are on the downhill...
