    kidzcare replied to guest464345's topic in School

    I hear you! When I've sent out a coworker and others start asking, I've told them to contact the person directly because I can't give any info. Luckily, I haven't ever had anyone push back on it....

  14. Women's Right to Choose

    kidzcare replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    kidzcare replied to TLS9544's topic in School

    When I work at the camp in the summer, I cringe everyday while I see the kids running around the dirt roads and tramping through the woods in flip flops. They come to the health center with a sore...

    kidzcare replied to bex177's topic in Camp

    kidzcare replied to jchesty_rn's topic in School

  24. Illinois Vision Screening

    kidzcare replied to BrisketRN's topic in School

    I would also like to note that I think having to get certified is a joke. I could easily teach any nurse how to do this simple screenings in 5 minutes. But then how will the state get more and more...
