Credentialing program in CA
The online class through CSU Fresno is also good. The only text for it is the Audiometrist Manual that kenderella mentioned. The teacher is great.

HIPAA, FERPA and how do you inform teachers about the health concerns in their class?
Thanks everyone! This is very helpful. I am working on care plans for all of our asthmatics and allergy kids right now (at least the ones that reported it on their registration card). Kenderella, we don't have the actual green book at our district, but the nurse training me keeps calling it that. We have the CD-ROM with the updates. It is annoying though because under diabetes and seizures it doesn't have any of the templates for IHPs etc... Just information on what the recent news is regarding diastat and insulin. Where in California are you? Are you planning on going to the CSNO conference in March in Sacramento? My district is sending me and I am hoping that I will be able to get a lot out of it.

HIPAA, FERPA and how do you inform teachers about the health concerns in their class?
Thanks so much kenderella. I am in California and the have a book of templates for all the major concerns. I have just been using that. It works out well. I am trying to navigate through a little bit of an unorganized mess that the last nurse left here. Unfortunately she is still coming in 1 day per week to "train" me, so I feel weird about doing a complete overhaul of the organization system (there really isn't one) right now. Do you give each teacher a quick training on emergency steps for the student, or just let them read it from the IHP/ECP?

HIPAA, FERPA and how do you inform teachers about the health concerns in their class?
Hi everyone, I am a new school nurse this year. The previous nurse told me that she never gave teachers a list of students with health concerns because she was "too worried about privacy" and "the teachers always leave those lists lying around", but as far as I can tell she never really told them at all. I am trying to figure out a good way to tell the teachers about allergies, asthma, seizures, etc... in their classrooms. What do you guys do? Am I allowed to email a list to each teacher? Or is that not private enough. Also, do you give them a copy of the student's IHP or emergency plans, so they know what the student and their responsibilities are? I am also interested in how all types of schools handle this (I am the nurse for a whole district), as I can imagine this problem would play out differently in the middle and high schools over the elementary schools. Any advice?
