    Any school nurses out there with 40 years?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    My standard question is "would you stop playing with your friends if this happened at home"? Most times I get no response and they just turn out of my door. I don't mind seeing them, but the really do...

    Any school nurses out there with 40 years?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    Agree 100%. I am in the unique position of not having a counselor. I have so many students coming in with their IPR issues and I tell them like it is. Everyone is in their own Broadway production and...

    Any school nurses out there with 40 years?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    Both of you had me . I went once when I stepped on a nail at school in third grade. Got to go home, too. Loved the look on the nurse's face as she took off my shoe. This was the early 70's, way before...

    Epi Question (new to school nursing)

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Back2workRN's topic in School

    I believe that our state health department covers giving it without orders. We can even order it from epipens 4 schools without a prescription. State law says epipens must be available to be used in...

    Meds Not Needed At School

    MrNurse(x2) replied to UrbanHealthRN's topic in School

    It seems that you are at a private school. Check with your health department, they may be able to provide medical oversight and prescriptions. You may want to check state law, too. Maryland allows...

    school nurse as a mom

    MrNurse(x2) replied to catia108's topic in School

    I work at the school were my children attend. I get to go on field trips, though I am not considered a chaperone and must stay in one strategic spot. My children have less free reign than other staff...

    2018 Lice

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Farawyn's topic in School

    We have gone to a don't ask, don't care attitude at the school. We encourage families to invest in a comb and do monthly checks. Don't care if you find them, don't really want to know. Woohoo!...

    2018 Lice

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Farawyn's topic in School

    Had that same trial las year. I, too, only combed with results. I feel for those girls with super thick hair, that would be a nightmare to comb. One of my students last year had a mom who just kept...

    I would suggest pediatric ER experience. Wish I had that most days. I would also recommend a few years experience before making the jump, school nursing can be a very independent environment and the...

    Student Body Odor

    MrNurse(x2) replied to AzElemNurse's topic in School

    Address it by saying that you addressing this with her will make her first encounter with the nurse a negative one and will make her hesitant to come to you when she needs to. Reiterate that her...

    Tissue thief!

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Amethya's topic in School

    Our entire office is technically ours, we are the ones who use our personal funds to buy everything. I would be willing to share, but a consistent pattern of theft would irritate me. I should ask to...

    Health office software

    MrNurse(x2) replied to SaltineQueen's topic in School

    Love SNAP, $300/ yr lease +/- and have great customer support. We switched to RenWeb this year for whole school. Seems pretty intuitive and uses narrative notes, which my wife prefers, and you know...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to taylor0818's topic in School

    Congratulations on your new career! I am all for new grads, I explain how this is a career, not a job, it takes a few years to feel comfortable and all that. I remember being new even though it was...

    Health Concerns forms?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to kskashmir's topic in School

    A point you may want to bring up to your administrators is that medication administration on paper is really a bad idea legally. Research MAR and you will find numerous issues, you really need to...

    Teachers ??

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    My teachers are awesome. They are very good at vetting students in the classroom. They respect my judgement and use me as a resource often. I am definitely an adjunct to the educational process, which...

    Would you tell a co-worker he needs hearing aides?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to AnnieOaklyRN's topic in General Nursing

    This is a professional issue, therefore, a discreet conversation is warranted. I would say that you have noticed that you have to repeat yourself a lot and you were wondering if you were not speaking...
