  1. School Clinic Budgets

    Eleven011 replied to UrbanHSRN's topic in School

    Eleven011 replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    Stomachaches get a temp check, "did you eat breakfast/lunch?", drink a big glass of water, use my bathroom, rest x 10 min. Some get saltines, grahams, or a granola bar if I think they may be...

  23. What? I have to participate in the Open House?!?

    Eleven011 replied to Jacquipals's topic in School
