    I survived the Board of Nursing

    MrNurse(x2) replied to KCMnurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    A lot of people think the BON exists for nurses, that could not be further from the truth. Unlike the medical board, the nursing board takes a guilty until proven innocent in all cases and really...

    Would love some advice!

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

    I often say, and truly mean, that if I should win the lottery, I would do this volunteer. It is all about your personality. My wife fills in and enjoys it, but I really do LOVE

    School Project

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

    What a great idea. Middle school destroyed me, went from an A student to a C student overnight. My insight is a little skewed, as I only have 45 middle school students. IPR in this group is the...

    School Nurses and Mental Health

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

    I have no social worker or counselor, it's me. I have less this year, as a few left, but I basically assess for threat and let them chill in my office. My school didn't have a nurse 18 months ago, so...

    May become an issue for me. We have a child who uses it and we have a first year teacher for him. We are trying to figure how to accommodate his needs with little to no classroom disruption. He may...

    Self harm situation

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

    Any chance of contacting parents for recommending further eval? I had a student who was self harming and had to initiate 911, as her parents weren't immediately amenable to the idea. Forced their hand...

    Do others follow this practice?

    MrNurse(x2) posted a topic in Men in Nursing

    Having done this career for 28 years, I have certain foundational practices that I don't stray from. The one that I get the most flak from is my refusal to count or witness for another male nurse if...

    New nurse applied for school nurse

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

    I am old school all the way. I tell new nurses that you can't even consider yourself experienced before 3 full time years, to give yourself time to learn what you weren't schooled. School nursing is...

    I do both. Sorry, I will never diss on something I don't know. Little life lesson, best to just back slowly and quietly out of the room. I have plenty of experience doing

    School workers get just as excited as kids for summer. I see it as I get to work one FT job instead of two. Just stay in your office and avoid eye contact. Good
