Yooooooooooo!
Who's in?
I am.
First day is 9/1, but I'm here now doing sports stuff.
Love you!
I am a new school nurse and start the 29th. I am extremely nervous. Its totally different then ltc. I have been talking about school nursing for at least 4 years. I have a bigger school then I would like. I have approximately 1150 students. The kids wont be back in school until after labor day. I guess what makes me nervous is that I am an introvert which has never hindered me in other jobs except that people have a hard time figuring me out. New kid on the block and extremely nervous. I want to really do some good for the school that I am in.
Here! We don't go back till after Labor Day, however, I have already been in the office a few times....put my office back together, organized paperwork, made calls to incoming K parents letting them know that I still need immunization records or their darling child may not start, made appointments with incoming diabetic students to review their med orders and agree on a daily BG check and insulin administration schedule with the parents, I still have to make my teacher medical lists, update careplans, etc....it is going to be a busy year!

Hello! Started back yesterday. Kiddos don't start until the 29th! This is my second year as a school nurse (Kg & 1st.) I'm already feeling better about things- as this time last year I had no clue what I was supposed to be doing! Good to be back!!
