  1. The Big Chill

    AdobeRN replied to beachynurse's topic in School

    Ugg the ice packs. I try to be selective about the ice packs but sometimes that is too big of a fight when I am busy. I did have a short time of not handing out any - my fridge ice maker was broken...

  2. I can't take much more

    AdobeRN replied to Cattitude's topic in School

    ohh - 90 Day Fiance - such a trainwreck that I can't stop watching. My husband hates Sunday nights when I am watching it. Steven & Olga - Kalani & Ansuelo - I just want to reach thru the TV...

  3. Those parents who believe everything their kids say

    AdobeRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    AdobeRN replied to dd_txrn's topic in School

  5. Random Lice talk!!!

    AdobeRN replied to T-ROD's topic in School

    I do the same. When the parent comes to pick the student up I give them the tape with bug, point out in the hair the nits and try to dig a little to find an actual live bug. You would be surprised...

  6. I'm over the nonsense...

    AdobeRN replied to MrsNurse08's topic in School

    Reminds me of high school - some of the teachers were creative with bathroom passes. PE coaches would have the football boys carry a huge cinder brick; my history teacher actually had a toilet seat...

  7. December Doldrums

    AdobeRN replied to jnemartin's topic in School

    No Netflix here either - but I do have Pandora on all day - just loud enough for me to hear while sitting my desk. I have tried to listen to podcasts but what I listen to would not be appropriate -...

  9. What's the school lunch today?

    AdobeRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

  10. Family Protective Services

    AdobeRN replied to KeeperOfTheIceRN's topic in School

  12. December Doldrums

    AdobeRN replied to jnemartin's topic in School

    December is always the worst for me - we go on Thanksgiving break come back and count down begins for Xmas break in 3 weeks - I don't want to do anything during the 3 weeks between Thanksgiving and...

  13. Family Protective Services

    AdobeRN replied to KeeperOfTheIceRN's topic in School

    I would say #3 which caused #1 to happen because of mulit reports on same child. In our area parents can get a copy of whatever was reported to CPS, so I doubt a worker would use a false reason for...

  14. Sensitive topic--Pertussis

    AdobeRN replied to ERschoolRN's topic in School

    I have had one case of positive pertussis, the parents did not notify the school, mom did keep the kid home for the required 5 days. We found out around 4 weeks after the kid had already been treated...

  15. Medical Alerts Question

    AdobeRN replied to MWOOD,LPN's topic in School

    the general action plans are a great idea - filing that info away for my "to-do stuff" for next school year.

  16. Medical Alerts Question

    AdobeRN replied to MWOOD,LPN's topic in School

    Are you able to run a report/list off the info you enter into the computer? We use Eschool - so I can create a spreadsheet/list of medical alert kiddos. I run it quarterly and send a PDF class list...

  17. Middle School Diets

    AdobeRN replied to BrisketRN's topic in School

  18. Medical Alerts Question

    AdobeRN replied to MWOOD,LPN's topic in School

    I put the alerts in the computer program we use - all teachers of that student can pull/see the info. If it is something significant - diabetics, severe allergies, seizures etc I will personally go...

  19. Middle School Diets

    AdobeRN replied to BrisketRN's topic in School

    AdobeRN replied to Rsrfrn's topic in School

    AdobeRN replied to scout mom's topic in School

    In Texas - large district, for the most part well off - Paid a salary spread out for 12 months on the teachers pay scale. We get extra pay for teaching CPR, working summer school and summer...

  22. What brought you to where you are now?

    AdobeRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    Always wanted to be a nurse from a very young age. Attempted college right after high school but didn't really have my act together - then got married, had kids and life got in the way. When my...

  23. FYI: P&G is open today for orders!!

    AdobeRN replied to scuba nurse's topic in School

    I also have always wondered how they come up with the numbers because it never matches mine either - some years I am short others I have extra. I think all of the nurses in my district pretty much...

  24. Kinsa

    AdobeRN replied to NurseMrn's topic in School
