  2. do I tell the other school's nurse?

    Sudsy posted a topic in School

    Sudsy replied to Sudsy's topic in School

    My school has almost no policies about anything! Love the place, but I'm really starting at ground

    Sudsy replied to rdsxfnrn's topic in School

    When I did first-aid training at my school, I told the teachers that they could never go wrong calling 911 and administering epipen to child w. breathing difficulties. The thing is, you just have no...

    Sudsy replied to lissaq10's topic in School

    Sorry, I was going to suggest the Always video.... I'm teaching hygiene to 7th gr. girls on Monday. It's my first time teaching this. Any tips? I found a good brochure online, but do you do any...

  6. Bed bugs

    Sudsy replied to schoolnursejennie's topic in School

    Would your school do emails rather than calls? I do emails for this sort of thing and it is SUCH a timesaver. I work in a private school, though, and we don't have anywhere near the number of rules...

  7. Epistaxis - doing anything different?

    Sudsy replied to Flare's topic in School

    I spoke w. our pediatrician about those products and was told they're not safe to use w. young children (I was asking about less than 6 y/o. Not sure if it would be different w. an older kid). I...

    Sudsy replied to SchoolRNAmy's topic in School

    I just went around to all classes (300+ kids in Toddler-grade 9) and spoke for 5-10 mins about handwashing. I also go each day to every grade below 1 and check in w. the teachers re. how the kids...

  9. I am officially a school nurse.

    Sudsy replied to schoolnursejennie's topic in School

    I'd make sure to ask what's the hardest thing she's had to deal with.....I guess i'm not really sure what else you should ask (I'm only a few weeks ahead of you in the school nurse dept!), but I would...

  10. I am officially a school nurse.

    Sudsy replied to schoolnursejennie's topic in School

    Wow! NEATO! Good luck. I hope you enjoy it. Even though it's "only" emotional disturbances and autism, I'd also like to see you get a longer orientation. It would be great if you could take notes...

  11. samples of sanitary pads?

    Sudsy replied to Sudsy's topic in School

    That's such a nice idea to encourage them decorate their own bag! My own dd wears cloth pads and we had a nice time together going online and choosing the

  12. samples of sanitary pads?

    Sudsy posted a topic in School

    Anyone know of a place that will send school nurses samples of sanitary pads? This is the first year my school has had some in the older girls' bathrooms, and, boy, they're using a lot. I've been...

    In the case I originally posted about, it was siblings, three in my school and three in the other

  15. do I tell the other school's nurse?

    Sudsy replied to Sudsy's topic in School

    Interesting f/u: I've been reading "School Nursing: A Comprehensive Text" and on p. 608 it says "When it is known that students in one school have possibly exposed students in neighboring schools, the...

  17. do I tell the other school's nurse?

    Sudsy replied to Sudsy's topic in School

    Thank you, Jolie. I appreciate your input. The only thing I could think to say to the other nurse is something about how I was finding a lot of nits and lice in the people from x country and has she...

  18. do I tell the other school's nurse?

    Sudsy replied to Sudsy's topic in School

    Well, barring that for the moment :). I did have a talk w. the principal of my school about how the AAP says no child should miss school b/c of lice and that was why I picked through the girl's...

    Sudsy replied to asp40's topic in School
