  1. Emergency Eye Wash station?

    I have an old metal cabinet on the wall that says eye was station on it, but all that's in it is an old plastic bottle with some tubing. I'd be scared to use it honestly. I keep bottle of eye...
  2. Who Keeps Staff Vaccines

    We really don't have an HR department here, but all the staff records are kept in the office, so I imagine the secretary there would handle it. I have nothing to do with staff, visits by them are...
  3. Your favorite color

    I've charted many a note in bright red
  4. How many kids do you see in a day?

    This is assuming there are parents home/awake/not high/give a crap about what condition their kids are in when they head to school. I've had kids puke on their way into the school and had been...
  5. Any parochial school nurses here?

    If you are already working there part time, don't you have an idea of what you would make going full time? Are you paid
  6. It's that time of year...

    Sounds very promising - good luck to
  7. Sweet, Honey

    This doesn't bother me too much I guess. It doesn't happen that often (probably because I'm no spring chicken), but when it does, its usually from someone who does it to everyone, we have a few...
  8. That's So Fetch! (Pink Wednesdays)

    Navy blue and orange today... Off to sit with
  9. Have you been given a raise every year?

    Yes, but I'm not quite sure yet what it's based on! When I started here I was an Aide. My second year as an aide, I got a raise per their pay scale (a % each year). Then the summer after that...
  10. School nursing for me ?

    Good luck with your application! I just wanted to add that not all nurses leave their jobs quickly or "roll through" the district. In my school, I replaced a nurse that had been here 18 years....
  11. We've had a student death also

    Prayers for all. So
  12. Another student death

    I'm so very sorry. You and your community are in my
  13. I've hit the wall...

    63 calendar days, 41 actual school
  14. I've hit the wall...

    I'm ready for summer and I have a sticky on my desktop counting down the school days left - 42!!
  15. That's So Fetch! (Pink Wednesdays)

    I am all in pink today! Although, by the slowness of this board lately, I think everyone but me is on spring break and I'll be sitting alone
  16. Does this fall under "my job"?

    If the students meds are unavailable, and the student is acting up, the SPED department or classroom will handle it. If they can't, they will make the decision as to what to do next. I am not a...
  17. The Pacer Test

    I thought you were talking about the mile run too. But now that I read the link, I see its totally different. We don't do anything like that here that I am aware of. At least I've seen no...
  18. NO MORE SNOW DAYS!!!

    I can't believe we haven't had any snow days yet this year. We have had plenty of 2 hour lates starts (one today actually), but all of our major blizzards have hit over weekends so far. We have a...
  19. Knee surgery

    That is what we do with students on crutches. We have a school with stairs and no elevator. We do have a chair thing that goes up and down the stairs, but its seriously slower than a slug and its...
  20. What supply company do you use?

    I order through MacGill School Nurse Supply also. I make my list from their catalog of what I will need for the next year and turn it in at budget time. Then the office manager will order it...
  21. Standardized Testing Week!

    We have those coming up soon. I don't remember from last year, but I'm pretty sure our teachers don't put up with any frivolous excuses to get out of
  22. Office location

    I am in a very old building that has been remodeled and cobbled up over the years. My current office is in a corner at the end of a hall. It's close to PreK and kinders, but pretty far from the...
  23. Summer jobs woes

    That's awesome! I think you will have a great experience for you and what a fun way to spend a
  24. That's So Fetch! (Pink Wednesdays)

    Well fudge nuggets. Got my pink on
  25. Summer jobs woes

    Do you all live together - your parents/niece and nephew and you? Family dynamics can be tricky - only you can decide whats best to do there. Have you thought of other ways to get pediatric...
