    I have 2 diabetics in 5th grade this year and several others in the school. One year is a fairly new diagnosis. It seems strange mom wouldn't want and need your support. I have an 8th grader...

    Rosie67 replied to guest83140's topic in School

    http://www2.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/doc/ferpa-hipaa-guidance.pdf-- This is the address- I'm not good at links and fancy computer functions, so you'll have to copy and paste the link. If it doesn't...

  7. CPS pics and hippa question

    Rosie67 replied to guest83140's topic in School

    I am sure Martha would have plenty to say. We have had discussions on a listserv recently. Most issues in schools are FERPA and not HIPAA. These discussions prompted me to download the US Department...

  8. School breakfast

    Rosie67 replied to bergren's topic in School

    I think the point is lost. We are not talking about that poor child who doesn't have food and misses breakfast from circumstances out of his control. I ask several questions when a student comes...

  9. Not sure what to feel

    Rosie67 posted a topic in School

    I had to take a personal/family ill day Friday. My grandfather had Mitral and CABG open heart. A student was throwing cheetos in the air and catching them in his mouth at lunch in the cafeteria. He...

  10. Organization

    Rosie67 replied to RNillini14's topic in School

    I keep a running log on a clip board. This lets me know how many kids I see everyday and it's a quick reference if I get too busy to chart details immediately. I have a record for every student in a...

    Past two weeks I sent home average 20 kids a day w/ fever over 101. Slowing down now. I don't know what to do with myself, only sent home 2 so fartoday. I got used to a line out my door at 800 am....

  12. Teacher injury

    Rosie67 posted a topic in School

    Hello Everyone- I almost made it to the end of the year without more issues-- THEN... A teacher aide sent a student to me for ice. I have her Return to Work Restrictions on file for a non-work...

  13. Did I do something wrong?

    Rosie67 replied to lilbiskit78's topic in School

    I'm sure that all of us reading your post have had similar situations. Even after six years in schools, I learn new things about myself and parents. Sometimes parents who haven't been doing all THEY...

  14. Teacher injury

    Rosie67 replied to Rosie67's topic in School

    I thought I should give an update- Some of you are making leaping assumptions- "power play", no, just doing what is right and prudent under my license. I did have communication with the MD, she was to...

  15. Teachers and Ice

    Rosie67 posted a topic in School

    I am so tired of teachers demanding that I give ice packs. I know it seems minor but not every injury needs ice! The other day a teacher went to the principal. He walked in here while I was on the...

  16. Illinois School Nurses...I need your help!!!

    Rosie67 replied to cowgirlBSN's topic in School

    I am on the Student Assistant Team here in my very inner-city school. We never have a 504 without the psych or social worker. Most importantly- he may not qualify for a 504. You don't want to make one...

  17. Illinois School Nurses...I need your help!!!

    Rosie67 replied to cowgirlBSN's topic in School

    This is of such interest to me. Firstly, does he have a 504 with a behavior plan? Having a medical diagnosis does NOT automatically qualify a student for a 504. Has your team discussed him? If he...

  18. Illinois School Nurses...I need your help!!!

    Rosie67 replied to cowgirlBSN's topic in School

    Wow! I think some of this is off track now. The school is not refusing to educate the child d/t disability. The child/Mom is refusing adequate interventions to the disabiltiy, ie: change of clothing....

  19. Illinois School Nurses...I need your help!!!

    Rosie67 replied to cowgirlBSN's topic in School

    Oh My!!! Not only unsanitary but quite bad for the skin. Tell her you need a doctor order to let him sit in soiled pants all day. Have Mom sign a release and speak with the MD. Sometimes I just give...

  20. Clinic Numbers

    Rosie67 replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Great ideas- I use most of those myself. I've been here 5 years so have worked out many of the kinks. Problems at times with new staff. I feel we are here to not only keep kids in the classroom, but...
