    Good Kids

    Flare replied to Farawyn's topic in School

    So two of my first graders just came in- one uses my bathroom regularly and the girl escorting him. The girl just sat there and chatted with me like we were two old biddies. If i had more time, i...

    "You can always stop in to get a head start during the Summer. I'll be here".

    Flare replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    i will say this about summer - I do work the summer session - it's easy money. I get a lot done in my office without a constant parade in my office. But i am surprised by how many unpaid hours the...

    What to do this summer...

    Flare replied to kidzcare's topic in School

    I am probably going to work some summer school - the moolah's too good to refuse - then the summer is mine to slack off. Going away with friends in August - big old beach

    What should I get a Masters in... and where?

    Flare replied to SciFiNurse's topic in School

    I go back and forth with the idea of getting my masters. Like you, I can get my masters in practically anything. It's the cost and small pot of continuing ed money here at work that keeps me from...

    No Bathroom UGH

    Flare replied to SWimbish's topic in School

    Honestly, there are times i wish I didn't have a bathroom in here... but a sink - oh no -i'd never be without a sink. I'd inquire into that. Hand sanitizer isn't an acceptable replacement for a...

    International Immunziations

    Flare replied to Amethya's topic in School

    i loves me some pink book. After a while, you get used to looking at the names and need to refer to it less. If the students are missing something I won't let them start, as getting them to get it...

    Inventions

    Flare replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    How about a mechanism where the bathroom door doesn't unlock unless the toilet is flushed, hands are hashed and the sink is turned all the way

    diabetic question and stuff

    Flare replied to peaceful nurse's topic in School

    also - wanted to add - agree with OD to the point that she does need to learn to eat within a suitable timeframe. Perhaos the parent can shed some light on if it takes her that long at home or if she...

    diabetic question and stuff

    Flare replied to peaceful nurse's topic in School

    This has been where Nurse Flare really lives up to her name - messing with my T1D student's meals. I have gone to bat many times when I've learned that my student's with insulin on board were made to...

    Emergency Calls- How long do we wait?

    Flare replied to Amethya's topic in School

    I agree with all of my esteemed e-colleagues. If the child is not improving, can't speak with neb tx's and inhalers to beat the band, i really don't care about the insurance woes. I'm going to make...

    Never heard this one before!

    Flare replied to villageRN's topic in School

    so the teacher couldn't come up with stretching out the hand a few times as a solution? What, what am I saying? Of course not - it's much easier to send the kid out to you and have you do that than...

    how long do you wait?

    Flare replied to bsyrn's topic in School

    i don't get paid overtime if i stay after school so i won't see kids after school unless there is an extreme circumstance. We're not a bussed district, so if a child is still waiting when the...
