    Yes!

    I would really love....

    Same! It's definitely not a question I will ever ask in this kind of situation. But I'd love to hear other points of view. I know everyone sees things from different angles and many are ones I'd never...

    I would really love....

    You know, this was my initial thought as well as I know that's a common reason, but I really don't think that applies to this particular situation. I could be totally wrong though! I'm fully aware...

    C'Mon Now!

    Same!! I was adamant on being a school nurse all through nursing school and my friends always said "but...school nurses don't make any money!". Since I was a SAHM, aside from nursing school, my...

    Hard pass here, too. If parents want it on (I totally understand), they have to put it on at

    Mood today...

    This came at a great time in my morning! I needed this giggle! Walked in to a kiddo and their parent waiting for me so I could look at the kid's finger that was slammed in a car door last night. They...

    C'Mon Now!

    Had an office helper bust into my office while I'm chatting with a student about their knee that has been hurting for 2 days now: OH: What did he say was hurting? Student and I: *look at each other...

    Asthma Action question

    You're welcome! Also, I just re-read this and it sounded a little "short"! Totally not my intention. Hopefully the parents will understand and get you what you need

    Asthma Action question

    No. You have no way of knowing if that is the child's inhaler or Pawpaw's who passed away last year. Also, would you accept any other medication without the packaging or a label? Same concept. I don't...

    Stomach pain-not hunger

    I do what the other above have said, as well. I'll also add that sometimes hunger can present as pain and they don't realize what they're feeling is actually hunger pains. When I've had them try going...

    Welcome to Monday Morning.....

    This family is unknown to me, actually. I've been talking with my admin assistant to see if we could gather more info for this reason though. My state does have Medicaid. We also have CHIP

    Welcome to Monday Morning.....

    I agree. I can't imagine being in that position. Plus side, they felt better after a peppermint (no breakfast) and hasn't returned after lunch so I really think they were just hungry. As for the pain...

    Welcome to Monday Morning.....

    Came in to this gem this morning: "My stomach was hurting all weekend. My mom and dad said to have you take care of it because we can't afford to go to the

    Coming in late with a weird question

    The way I see it, they don't recognize our laws...great, fine, and dandy. BUT! And there's a big but! I recognize and follow the laws and so does the school. They don't get to dictate that. They...

    Funny Ranting

    "Have you pooped today?" "No, my icepacks have to stay in the office or else they get lost on their way home..." "Yes. As a matter of fact I DO think eating lunch will help your stomach feel better as...

    Asthma Action question

    In a short answer, yes. A signed Asthma Action plan is a legal MD order. However, you might consider checking your school policy, as that is what your admin will fall back on, to make sure you don't...
  22. I think MrNurse is saying IF you get another school nurse position, try following this forum as we offer a lot of advice and guidance. I don't think he was trying to insinuate you are to blame. Just...
