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

    Hey Kooky. just to clarify, for school nurses, she did give enough info. Autistic students aren't reliable all the time in their reporting and no one saw the student ingest any. There was a...

    Nurses asked to work as aides

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Ptav65's topic in General Nursing

    How many kids do you see in a day?

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

    I think if I had that many visits, I would be sending out an email to push fluids first before sending. This is the main reason I don't have cough drops, secondary to the fact that they have limited...
