    OyWithThePoodles replied to Ema's topic in General Nursing

    What the hot fudge is going on here?!?!?

    OyWithThePoodles replied to SaltineQueen's topic in School

    I just saw this thread, I linked the news article in another thread. This is our governor. He is an absolute idiot. He's also the one who during a teacher "sick-out" last year told news reporters...

    Screening hours? Closed office?

    OyWithThePoodles replied to villageRN's topic in School

    Every school in our district takes a day to do screens, a different day for each school of course. But we designate one health screen day where grades 1-5 have vision, weight, height, and scoliosis...

    Help. Input. Agree. Disagree. Thoughts.

    OyWithThePoodles replied to NRNPH's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I think it's a bit silly that the bags are spiked and left in the refrigerator, I really hope there is something I am missing because it takes close to no time to spike and prime new...

    C'Mon Now!

    OyWithThePoodles replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    You should start quizzing these teachers students when they come in. Give them spelling words or simple math. Then when they don't know the answers send a "just want you to know" email"

    OyWithThePoodles replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    Ugh. Especially at 7th grade, like c'mon, talk to your child about being responsible. Or don't give them extra money. Boy I would hate it if my dad was the reason the whole school got these drinks...
