  2. Paramedic and teachers assistant being pushed to cover for a irresponsible school nurse?

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to ScottyWeirdo's topic in School

    So, when a teacher has a lunch period and 2 planning periods - it is called a requirement!!!! However, when the nurse takes a lunch - it is called

  3. If you have filed a report for Medical Neglect

    I agree. Just do it!!! All you need is a

  4. Silly rant, but people keep steeling my tissues

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I have almost 1300 students and an $800 budget. Hard to make it stretch even when people don't help themselves to stuff. SPED department has already "borrowed" 3 boxes of gloves this year. We will pay...

  5. C'Mon Now!

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    LOL!!!! Common sense people....... I had a student come to me a few years ago because she had a tiny (1mm) hole on the top back of her pants. Really, you needed a magnifying class to even see it....

  6. Migraine Action Plan

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to theredhen's topic in School

    THIS!!!!! If student needs all that, it needs to be done at home by mom...... Himalayan salt.

  7. kids going home when they really don't need to

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to nurseshellyRN's topic in School

    You must work in my district!!!!! I feel the same, pick your battles and pick ones that you have a chance of actually winning as this is not one of them. In my district, it is irrelevant if I send or...

  8. 100% Vaccination compliance and classroom first aid kits

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to KeeperOfTheIceRN's topic in School

    I could give my staff all the supplies in the world and they would not ever touch

  9. Staff Hysteria

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to Ashizzle's topic in School

    Just WOW!!!! I really believe that if "Becky" ever does leave your school, she will probably come work at mine and fit in just fine. I find teachers get younger, needier, more attention seeking,...

  10. What's the Pay Off?

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to cooties_are_real's topic in School

    I had a student many years ago who would have a "seizure" in the hall or class, be fine in the clinic. Leave, have another "seizure" and be sent right back. Tried and tried to get a plan on file....

  11. Munchausen on the increase?

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    Half the time I get these requests, I pull up their file and parents have written "no known health problems." I get a kick out of sending a copy of

  12. Munchausen on the increase?

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    I bet same kid has been at the mall with somebody drinking a hazelnut coffee in the vicinity. Did they sue the mall??? Did they even realize or

  13. Munchausen on the increase?

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    It is silly, the requests just continue to grow in absurdity. How can a school guarantee a peanut free facility?? Even if you made this a policy, other than checking every kid and every adult for...

  14. Sure, no problem

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to OhioBPH's topic in School

    I have found it easier just to say sure!! I usually then forget about it. It is not like the teacher is going to ask the student. "Did Nurse Fix All The Problems In The School call you down to discuss...

  15. Rough Day Yesterday

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to KKEGS's topic in School

    YES!!! Well

  16. C'Mon Now!

  17. C'Mon Now!

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    I had a kid on Friday come to me because she forgot to put on her bra that morning!!! The C'MON NOW is she really had nothing to fill a bra in the first

  18. I can handle just about anything...

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to ohiobobcat's topic in School

    I can handle almost anything other than staff members going into full blown panic mode because a kid threw up in their trash can. I was on my second trip of the morning, loading an injured kid into...

  19. ROLL CALL!!! School Nurses 2017/2018

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to Farawyn's topic in School

    Started school on 8-21 and barely took a breath today to check in!!! Already had a few CPS cases, an emergency 911 call on a staff member, and a few arguments over shot

  20. If lice can't jump or fly

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I would suggest a math review for this teacher. 2 kids out of a class of 20-25 does not equal 100%. Since lice is not a health problem, only a nuisance and teachers seem like they are much more...

  21. So fevers don't count on field day

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to halohg's topic in School

    Several years ago I had a student with chicken pox - during STAAR testing. I was at a small school at the time and only there 2 days a week. I found out after the fact, the principal had a staff...

  22. Lice policy?

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to momto5RN's topic in School

    I received an e-mail from a "concerned" mom a few weeks ago. Her daughter had just texted her some names of students that supposedly had lice. She sent me 6 names (only first names, she did not know...

  23. Advice needed

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to Gertiegirl's topic in School

    You are not being petty at all. This irks me to no end. Fine, you want to save money as a district by hiring MA's, go ahead!!! However, do not misrepresent that you have a "nurse" in every building....

  24. Do you ever do nothing for your student?

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to pernella's topic in School

    I had one just come a few minutes ago. He said he had an air pocket in his shoulder, his friend popped the air pocket for him and now he has absolutely no pain at all. Not sure what he meant by air...

  25. Pills in Baggies...

    SchoolNurseTXstyle replied to KKEGS's topic in School

    Every time I see pills in a baggie, I want to quit!!! The worst is pills wrapped in a paper towel with pocket lint stuck to
