My schools are Title 1 and yes it's a pain in the butt when they send kids to school sick AND there's no working numbers!!! Seriously you can get a phone for $25 a month and I see your kid is playing...
We all know them or have seen them on the Internet. The Armchair Doctors or Internet Microbiologists. Their conspiracy theories are wrapped up in so many tangents you wonder how they haven't...
My favorite group of deniers right now are the "Stevie Wonder Can See" people. The truth is out there! Also, does any one know if anyone has made a case for Aliens and Ebola? Hey History Channel: if...

Have you tested her multiple times with different results? Even if she fails and you think so note that on the referral letter to go home. I have a section on my letter where I make notes such as the...

Our discipline office keeps a stack of old PE uniforms and other donated items we use for students who violate dress code or have accidents (mostly bloody noses or period accidents) and their parents...

With my HS kids they are responsible for coming. Pretty much all the scheduled meds are at lunch time so we can't call them out or have security hunt them down because they are patrolling. If they...

The "fake" Northern California aka The Bay Area. I know it's not really that North. But closer than than the sand trap I live in now. If I had to go higher than Sacramento it would have to be Tahoe or...
I just realized that I have 2 weeks left at my job. I'm off to bigger and greener pastures. I love my job and *most* of the people I work with, but I love and miss my family more so I'm going to be...
Oh yeah the government theories! Uncle Sam wants to kill us off with a engineered virus that's actually airborne, round us all up, take our guns, and somehow profit off all of this. And my 2nd...
I agree. They will wait until she makes a mistake (no matter how minor) or they will wait until the Ebola stuff have "died down" and make their move. My heart goes out to her. I'm not sure I could be...
I'm no study, but I'm 25 and I have all my documentation that I have gotten a flu shot every year since I was 8 (It's been earlier than that, but that's where I can find the beginning of my records)....
Is there already a thread where we can post and laugh at all the non-nursing/medical theories on Ebola? If not I should start one. I have a FB friend who is a fantastic Internet Microbiologist....
I wanted to scream when someone said that everyone who gets Ebola should just be shot dead on confirmation of having the disease. I remember hearing something similar about those who are HIV positive...

I swear some of these parents are paying Doctors off to write some of these ridiculous orders. Is common sense not a requirement in Med School these days?
No more, "I'm cramping so much I can't run at PE or walk". If you can't even walk then you can't walk between classes and if the pain is so unbearable why are texting on your phone and laughing while...

Also, because I know this has come up before, this is how I broke my contract: Like everyone else in the District, my contract is for one year. I applied for a few jobs over the summer and wasn't...

On the back of my MAR I have an area that says Log Of Medication. I write the date, count the medication, have the parent count the medication, then write the amount under "#Rec'd". I sign and then...
