School nurse interview question

[yoyo1908]

Hello,

i had an interview question I think I bombed. What accommodations would you make for a student with two broken legs. I answered access to classroom, desk/table, pe alternative but the panel member was prompting me to address more areas. I forgot to answer bathroom.Any other suggestions?
