I'm sorry if I'm coming off that I hate School Nursing, when that's the opposite. I'm only a CMA, not an nurse and I'm honestly trying my best with these children and parents. I'm doing well lately, but some of these parents are just too much sometimes. I'm stuck between this spot where I'm not a nurse and I can't tell them what I think without sounding like I'm diagnosing, and trying to have this position where I can tell them what to do to a point, but once they learn I'm not a real nurse, I feel they take advantage of this and try to treat me like I'm nothing. I'm not nothing and I have the education to help their children, but it's hard when I don't have anyone listening to me, especially when it comes to their children.
So I'm sorry if my post are sounding bitter or cynical, but I'm just trying to find somewhere to vent to get some support and advice to things that I'm not sure what to do. I wasn't trained in this and all I was told when I got hired was do this on the computer and that's it, nothing about what to do if the child can't breathe, or what to do if you get an angry parent. So please do not hate me for what I write, I write the way it happened and I see it and I want to see what you guys write and I take that as way to learn what to do in the future.
Thank you for your time.
