Sleeping in the infirmary

[LAP]

I'm curious how others deal with students that want to come in to "rest" during the school day? I haven't typically allowed it unless the student is on break, they're going home or they're having a migraine and have prescribed medication for the migraines. Even then, I only allow them to lie down for 30-45 minutes to allow the meds to kick in. My coworker doesn't mind it though and often time when I come in on my days off, she has 2 or 3 high school students asleep during their class times.

I work with JK-12th

I'm in a high school too. No sleeping for tiredness in my clinic. If you are tired, it's a consequence for going to bed too late. Wash your face with cold water and back to class. Only students that are sick and waiting for parents get to rest here.
