3. Dealing with teachers

   Morganalefey replied to SassyTachyRN's topic in School

   Maybe this isn't the right attitude, but when I get a sleepy kid, I call the parent and make it their problem. I work in a school that is PreK-4th grade. In my opinion, they aren't being productive...

4. Do you feel that School Nurses are respected in the school system???

   Morganalefey replied to Biglos94's topic in School

5. I'm just so confused. :(

   Morganalefey replied to Stitchy's mom's topic in School

   What specifically is it you are confused about? I see my students, I document, I cya, and that is my priority. The immunizations, etc, are 2nd hat to that. I will get that done, when I get that done....

   Morganalefey replied to bella201's topic in School

    Morganalefey posted a topic in School

    Not bleeding. Not out. Just loose. WHY do teachers send them to me for this?!?! I will NOT pull out teeth. Ick! What am I supposed to do about this?!?! Vent over. Hope everyone's back to school is...

    Morganalefey replied to Morganalefey's topic in School

    Morganalefey replied to Morganalefey's topic in School

    Morganalefey replied to Morganalefey's topic in School

    I make $720/week before taxes. $150/week = $600/month. That's a lot of $$$! Especially since I only need about 2hrs/day. I'm thinking about going into home health. I could start my day after the kids...
