Discussion

Topical without Rx

My administrators have decided after a discussion at a staff meeting that ALL agents put on students should go through the nurse. Teachers have been applying essential oils supplied by parents to their students in class. I explained to the teachers that, by my license, I can not administer anything without prescription or Dr's order. Today I had my first instance. I called the mom and explained that I would happily apply the peppermint and lavender oils, which she claimed were dilute. My real concern was allergic reactions by other students. I offered her the option of calling her doctor and faxing an order to apply, which she was reluctant to do. She decided to placed it prior to drop off in the morning, as well as when she volunteers for lunch. I know this was kind of discussed, but has anyone have a definitive policy for this?

    Now there's a stupid essential oils ad on the right hand side of my AN page! It states they can cure everything. I am sure they have one for ED.

    I have the ad on the right side of the page, too! "Simple tips for using Essential Oils EVERYONE should know!"

    EVERYONE!

    If they don't - trazadone can help with that. Can have the same effect as cialis or viagra. (The things I learn at work...)

    I want to know when in the hell parents became so stupid and self absorbed that they started to think rubbing essential oils on their kids or anything else was a teacher's job. I will never essential oil anyone, they can do it themselves or do without, but I will not play a role.

    I do not put anything on without an order, sun screen and bug spray included. I don't even give out lotion (I used to get rashy as a kid with certain lotions). The only rule I "break" is the white petrolatum for chapped lips, I will do that.
