  7. It must be Pink eye!

    BeckyESRN replied to Amethya's topic in School

  9. Signing off on another nurses paperwork

    BeckyESRN replied to cb9115's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know what your paperwork looks like, so I don't know if this is helpful. But, when we did paper charting, if a section wasn't completed by the admitting nurse, I'd fill it out and date, time,...

  10. Alert and oriented but drowsy

    BeckyESRN replied to caalvarez3's topic in General Nursing

  16. School Nurse Gives Wrong Medication

    BeckyESRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I label all of my medication bins with the student's picture at the start of the year-not that it would have made a difference in the outcome of this situation, but I feel like it gives my subs some...

  18. Inane scripting

    BeckyESRN replied to Jedrnurse's topic in General Nursing

    BeckyESRN replied to Jacquipals's topic in School

    Rash on belly, yep. Potty accidents, nope. I don't want to see anything in any area that is covered by a swim suit. If a kid says they have a rash, say on their upper thigh, I'll give them caladryl on...

  22. If you feel sick the nurse will call me and you can go home

    BeckyESRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    And then you have the parents who write the "If my little darling isn't feeling well at any point today, please call this number and someone will be right there to pick up the little darling" so, 40...

  23. It must be Pink eye!

    BeckyESRN replied to Amethya's topic in School

    It's a constant battle here too! I know someone on here has an awesome chart comparing the two, hopefully they'll share it again! I send home for copious amounts of yellow drainage or when you can...

  24. Super Lice..

    BeckyESRN replied to Bevp's topic in School

    I also wonder if maybe the parents have lice, so they are just constantly being re-infested. I have had lots of parents ask me to do a lice checks on them when they discover that their child has lice,...

  25. Discouragement

    BeckyESRN replied to dec2007's topic in General Nursing

    Our favorite saying was always "What's the difference between God and cardiothoracic surgeon? God can't perform cardiothoracic surgery!" That pretty much sums up the mentality of the CTS that I worked...
