  1. Staff visits

    Staff is added into our SNAP program, so I chart them like a normal visit. Almost every day I have a staff member asking me for a temp/BP/Rash check/etc and I feel like that adds to my case as to why...
  2. I just can't...

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh that would definitely test my acting skills because I would be panicked if that happened to one of my kiddos
  3. Colostomy

    It must be different state to state, because I definitely both emptied and changed bags as a CNA. If there was ever any issue during the change I'd let the nurse know. As I said earlier, based on...

    Same. But sometimes I will admit that I'm tempted when it's just barely hanging on and the little one refuses to try on their own. I have two things I wish I could pass to someone else: Eye injures...
  7. Privacy and Clinic Access

    That's the worst sometimes. When you know the little one is working on their acting career and all the staff around you believe them. I'm glad you asked for different placement. Being a school nurse...

    YES, Another new T-Shirt! I have one teacher in particular who I bump heads with because she will tell the little ones that they have a fever, and in the past she bought a thermometer to try and prove...

  10. My job was spared...

    At least your boss is being transparent rather than stringing you along. I am glad that your job is being saved and I'll keep my fingers crossed for your little one's school. With the whole teacher...
  11. C'Mon Now!

    1st grader comes in tears into my office with note that says "student will explain". Little one explains how someone bumped into her and she fell backwards onto the playground. I asked what hurt and...

  19. Privacy and Clinic Access

    I would focus on what you can control. Since you are hired via an agency, I would ask to be assigned to a new school for next year if possible. You are in a toxic environment for not just yourself but...

    We are the same at my district! As a part of our IHP template there is an area for "emergency planning" where I have written out the students symptoms for both hyper and hypo glyecmia and simple steps...

    Did Sweet P notice?
  24. LOL. New perfume.

  25. For those with T1D kids

    This gets me SO MAD for you. I would ask to speak with someone else because she just isn't being professional. I have two TD1s both with pens. I see them before morning snack, we dose based on their...
