I have a little bit of an odd profession. I am a nurse paraprofessional. The county health department takes care of all the health plans and the lice checks etc. I monitor kids or help with insulin and carb counting especially disabled kids, administerd IV antibiotics, etc.......
I'm not paid much a tiny bit more than a teacher's aid, but its worth it to me, to have the great hours and the stress of not having work call me every 8 hours begging me to come in 365 days a year. I played that game for 25 years. Tired of it!
Anyway, yesterday I was asked if I could do diabetic training to teachers. Why wouldn't I legally be able to do this? I have a BSN but I am not a certified school nurse. I have trained a zillion new diabetic patients in the hospital and outpatietn setting on diabetes. I guess the health dept nurse even said she didn't know if I could do that. Can I? WHat do you think?
