Health Services
Our School Nurse
provides direct health care to students and staff who may be injured
while at school, develop a sudden illness while at school, and who need
care while at school as prescribed by a physician. Our nurse also
provides health screenings, helps promote a healthy school environment
by monitoring immunization compliance and evaluating potential
communicable diseases, and also functions as a teacher by providing
health education and information to students, families, and staff. A
school nurse does not diagnose, however, and may not treat without a
physician's order. A physician's order is necessary to give any
medicines- prescription or over the counter- at school.
