[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]My kids attend a Catholic parish school where there is no nurse. (None of the parish schools around us have a full time nurse.[/b]) One of the administrators is trained in first aid, meds, CPR, etc and handles dispensing meds, epi pens, calling parents for sick or injured kids. It’s very common and not an issue. My kid happens to have a medical condition which they have handled very well. There are kids with asthma, diabetes, allergie, ADHD. Do you need a nursing degree to dispense a Ritalin tablet?( You do have to turn in forms from the doctor and have the meds in the bottle from the pharmacy.) If that’s out of your comfort zone, don’t look at those schools, but it’s not exactly an anomaly.[/quote]

Lame. All of the parish schools in the DC metro area have fulltime nurses on duty, as did my kids’ high school.

I wouldn’t want some administrator trained in first aid anywhere near my kid[/quote]

Uh, nope. [/quote]

Name the school that does not have a nurse.  I find it hard to believe because our small Catholic K-8 school in Maryland (which has only one class per grade) had a full time nurse who seems very busy.  What school PP?  Let us know so we all can avoid it.[/quote]

She’s probably posting from Alabama or wherever. Georgia, PP?[/quote]
