  1. School Nurse Concerns

    WineRN replied to RebecaRN's topic in School

    I am the odd duck out here. My district is pro nurses. There is a full time BSN minimum RN in each of our 23 schools. All middle and high schools have a part time office aide to handle the increased...

  3. National Walkout Day March 14 at 10am

    WineRN replied to RobotechTD's topic in School

    I agree there have always been good or bad parents, but in recent history american culture has moved more towards the needs of the individual and away from needs of the whole. That's why things like...

  4. National Walkout Day March 14 at 10am

    WineRN replied to RobotechTD's topic in School

    I agree with you all the way until the last 5 words. Bullying doesn't begin in school, it starts at home. I was bullied pretty badly growing up, to the point where my mom would come to the school...

  5. Good Kids

    WineRN replied to Farawyn's topic in School

    This is more of a good parent story. Little one comes in with big goose egg from falling on the concrete while playing soccer. No tears, total tough stuff which is a big deal because he usually isn't....

  7. Am I overreacting?!

    WineRN replied to CrazySchoolNurse's topic in School

    I'm glad your principal reconsidered. I was thinking of this yesterday when I had 8 kiddos in my office (we are doing jump rope for heart, so all my asthma kids are coming in). If I had to do them one...

    WineRN replied to KKEGS's topic in School

    My kinders usually come in twos so they don't get lost (I'm on the other side of the school from where their rooms are) I still always ask if they know the way back. Yesterday afternoon, right outside...

    WineRN replied to Farawyn's topic in School

    I hear you. I feel the same as you. I also know that the first day for hunting season is an unofficial holiday in the high schools around me. I know multiple 4H and other youth programs that offer...

  14. School Nurse Memory, is this weird?

    WineRN replied to Nogirl42's topic in School

    I'm sorry that happened to you. I personally would not be ok with handling any conversation like this. IMO you can dress however you want as long as it fits our dress code (Which thankfully is more...

  15. School Shootings

    WineRN replied to Farawyn's topic in School

    I don't think he's defending it. I honestly had a similar thought process. Our teens have just been shown that their school can be a dangerous place, our leadership is calling on arming teachers and...

    WineRN replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    Sub has sent the same little one to me 3 times saying he has a stomach ache and the little one upon arriving to my office says he has no idea why he was sent down. He's one of my FF, behavioral issues...

  19. kind of feeling low right now

    WineRN replied to palli's topic in School

    This is how I feel too. Little ones across the board have this need for instant gratification and both them and their parents don't know how to handle chronic conditions. But I feel our parenting as a...

    WineRN replied to cowboysandangels's topic in School

    That is so cool that you do that! I'm planning on taking mine this summer and I'm already nervous about it. I have a binder with notes and it does feel like studying for the NCLEX all over

  24. C'Mon Now!

    WineRN replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    I have a few teachers who admit to just using my nursing skills instead of going to the doctor like they should. My least favorite is the ones who bombard me at the door who obviously shouldn't be...
