I know! I have 6th-8th graders and I had to make a poster on WHERE an oral thermometer goes.. I don't know how many times I've said "nope, close your lips like it's a straw" 🙄

We could change it to "Keepin' them alive til 3:05" for SNs

I don't think the OP is doing anything wrong by asking what to expect in an interview. When I interviewed, it was for the school district and the interviewers didn't even know what school I would be at (elementary, middle, HS). Anyone who wants ANY job would be smart to get an idea of typical questions for the field they're trying to get into.

I just had my interview last month. It was different than I expected. They had bullet points written down (seizures, diabetes, asthma, allergy/anaphylaxis, concussion etc.) and just asked me to talk about what I knew about each topic. They talked about when I would call 911 with seizures/allergic reactions/injuries. The rest was what you said -HR type questions. I interviewed with the Nurse Supervisor and a supervisor from Special Education. Good luck!! (I changed to school nursing from OBGYN and LOVE it!!)

We aren't allowed to wrap! They consider this a step beyond our scope of nursing. So with that being the rule, I wouldn't even rewrap :/

I am here! I am a new school nurse (this is day 7 for me!) Spring Break is next week!! I have been lurking in the shadows for quite some time. I am at a middle school (6th-8th grade, 1,050 students). So far, I LOVE IT! and I love you guys!
