    50 school days left until Summer

    My state just closed universities and colleges for 2 weeks beyond Spring break, so I don't think schools are far behind. That would at least lessen our year by ten days, so there is the silver

    Disrespect & Profanity

    Davey Do you have addressed everything I have seen degrade over my career. I was amazed at the number of F bombs that fly in front of staff and patients alike. No one apologizes to pts for their...

    A Question About Standing Orders

    Check with your state department of ed, things I checked with the BON were never told to me that were mandates from the DOE. I was here 5 years and my school had NO CLUE nurses were mandated, even for...

    A Question About Standing Orders

    My school had no nurse before I came. I was able to call the next county over and they gave me their protocols. I got a physician whose children attended the school to sign off, but he was also the HD...

    3rd Party Lice Reports

    Give a three hour lecture in August before school starts with the premise that your policy is evidence based and teach the intricacies of parasite science. Tell them it will repeat next year if there...

    S/s x 3, 4, 7 days??

    I always make the parent aware, that is your CYA. I tell them they are missing class because of this. Being private, I have parents who want to keep asses in classes, except for vacations, of

    Coronavirus and Schools

    The media is so reckless with this. The hospital I work at had 2000 isolation gowns "disappear", we had none for the weekend (not that I mind, EBP says gowns have no impact on contamination) and had...

    Parent Pick-Up of Sick Kiddo

    Nursing DOES come with that flexibility, and my wife and I show it. As stated, we have put our promotions and ambitions on hold so that a parent is available all the time. Sorry, people in AN have NO...

    Parent Pick-Up of Sick Kiddo

    Just like in the hospital, it is never about me being put out when someone needs something. It is about the effect on the "patient" that concerns

    Coronavirus and Schools

    This is the scariest part in anything that happens to China. The world has allowed them to produce everything, and their social structure allows it to be economical. We need to start manufacturing...

    Parent Pick-Up of Sick Kiddo

    My point is we have allowed dual income to be the norm. I am guilty, our lifestyle demands dual income, but we make allowances that reduce our comfort to allow security for our boys. I could go on for...

    "Can you do something about this?"

    Funny that the teachers that don't want to talk to parents are the same ones who call when they are sick and they don't want them in their

    Sub teachers grrrrr

    I see far less students from my two male taught classes than the others, they are fifth and eighth grades, not the age to want to stay in class. I also notice that even when offered frequently, my...

    Parent Pick-Up of Sick Kiddo

    I understand that back ups fail. My complaint is when there is no plan at all. Here's my take, and it is a societal issue, follow the logic. There was a time when people were told that slavery was...

    Parent Pick-Up of Sick Kiddo

    This is my world view, I am very understanding of perfect storm contingencies, but at least have back ups, it is immature to not. We are available 99% of the time, and we still have four options if...

    How do you get a sub?

    I work in a private, no subs here. I have learned that it is way above my paygrade to worry about my office if I am not here. This is an issue for your supervisor or your district, not you. Employers...

    Not sure if you are public or private, but I understand the hesitance if you are private, LOTS of politics. Maybe tell admin that you are very fearful of this woman and she is acting differently when...

    Affluence is a double edged sword. I am treated as a servant a lot. Our students used to have older parents, we are now post depression and the young affluents are coming in and owning the place....
