    Coronavirus and Schools

    Avill replied to KeeperOfTheIceRN's topic in School

    Just had the worst one I've had since I've been here. Kids got into a fight, hit cement, kept hitting him while on the ground... Pinpoint pupils, in and out of consciousness, bleeding... so a head injury. Got flown to a different hospital. ...

    FMLA/Maternity Summer? Question!

    Avill posted a topic in School

    Just randomly thinking, what if somebody gives birth a month before school starts but still wants to go on maternity leave or FMLA? Does it still count even if you don't give birth during the actual school year. Have any of you done this? ...
