  1. I need a SALTINE !

    DEgalRN replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Enjoy!

  2. What software do you use?

    DEgalRN replied to 1mrsbs's topic in School

    We use eSchool. I agree that it's nice to have all the class information in one place with my documentation. But, I don't think it's an efficient or easy to use

  3. But I'm the Nurse

    DEgalRN replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    I had a teacher tell me that a kid looks like he needs to go home. No, a kid only needs to go home if their throwing up, have a fever, or having diarrhea. None of which you say in that classroom....

  4. This is a new one...

    DEgalRN replied to ohiobobcat's topic in School

    Should have told her you would take the kid, but a sick kid daycare cost is $50 per hour with an hour

  5. Friday!

    DEgalRN replied to kidzcare's topic in School

    So exciting! Good

  6. Manners....are they obsolete ?

    DEgalRN replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Oh, common sense. You have it!

  7. Manners....are they obsolete ?

    DEgalRN replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    This thread just reinforces that I'm trying to do the right thing with my 2 year old. She'll often demand "pouch" or "book" or "cheese stick," and my husband and I are pretty good about responding...

  8. Rearranging

    DEgalRN replied to Eleven011's topic in School

    I plan to rearrange next year. I would do it this year, but quite frankly, all of my furniture is heavy and awkward. Plus, with 4 cots in a tiny room, there's really no good set up. (I'm getting...

  9. Manners....are they obsolete ?

    DEgalRN replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    I do. Some of them actually get it. And the ones who don't, well, nothing I do is actually going to change

  10. Happy Mother's Day

    DEgalRN replied to OldDude's topic in School

    Thanks!

  11. I'm joining the club!

    DEgalRN replied to FloridaBeagle's topic in School

    Congrats!

  12. Medication Organization

    DEgalRN replied to stacyns02's topic in School

    Just commiserating that my meds are a mess (and I don't even have that many!). Next year is my year to get organized! I love some of the ideas here

  13. Boy/Girl Who Cried WOLF Syndrome

    DEgalRN replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

    I have absolutely the same worries that you do. I'm still looking for that compromise. I still do my assessment but I always feel like I'm having the wool pulled over my eyes by the little buggers....

  14. Medical Records, Admins, and FERPA, oh my!

    DEgalRN posted a topic in School

    So, I feel like this is a straightforward question, but I just want to make sure. An administrator should not be sharing a medical condition that a student has with the whole school staff, correct? I...

  15. Medical Records, Admins, and FERPA, oh my!

    DEgalRN replied to DEgalRN's topic in School

    You are absolutely correct and I need to keep reminding myself that too. We're going through some transitions, and not everyone is aware of the requirements so I want to provide some much needed...

  16. Ammonia Inhalant

    DEgalRN replied to arnoldlayne's topic in School

    I used them twice on the same kid. It wasn't my finest moment, but I knew he was faking. I wouldn't want a teacher to have to try and determine that a student is faking or has a real need though. I...

  17. What info for sub nurses?

    DEgalRN posted a topic in School

    I'll be doing a training on Thursday and Friday this week, so my school is getting a sub! What information do I need to leave for them? I have a folder from the nurse last year, but it's fairly...

  18. Let's Talk about you!

    DEgalRN replied to Supernrse01's topic in School

    I've been a nurse for 5 years. First year as a school nurse. Previously worked public health and med/surg. I have my BSN and am currently in school for my MSN in Informatics. I think if I could do...

  19. What info for sub nurses?

    DEgalRN replied to DEgalRN's topic in School

    Oye, that's when you try and wrangle someone at the school to

  20. What info for sub nurses?

    DEgalRN replied to DEgalRN's topic in School

    I didn't even think of that! I'll be out at training, but it's probably a good thing to provide just in

  21. C'Mon Now!

    DEgalRN replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    "My stomach and head hurts." Where are you supposed to be? "Lunch." Go eat

  22. Your Opinion on District Letter re: Absences

    DEgalRN replied to Nurse Beth's topic in School

    The teachers and guidance counselor sends out missed day letters when there's a risk of non-credit status. They don't recommend sending the students to school sick (I agree with the liability issues...

  23. How much autonomy do you have?

    DEgalRN replied to RN-DC's topic in School

    Probably! I'm actually pretty sure I just have an end of the year report that I know about. My mentor hasn't mentioned any other reports that are due in our meetings (and we have had more than a...

  24. How much autonomy do you have?

    DEgalRN replied to RN-DC's topic in School

    You and me

  25. How much autonomy do you have?

    DEgalRN replied to RN-DC's topic in School

    I report to the principal for administrative stuff, and have a nurse mentor (who I go to for most things), and a lead nurse (that doesn't really do anything). I technically have requirements for...
