School Nurse

The school nurse maintains an up-to-date health records system for students and staff. The school nurse provides first aid and other prescribed medical services for students who become sick or ill at school, identifies problems and makes referrals for diagnosis and treatment. Working as a member of the support team, the school nurse counsels students and parents on health issues, provides instruction in maintenance of good health and disease prevention, interacts with home school nurses, and stays current with the development in the health-safety field of vocational education.
