-monitor and supervise the school assigned and administered care room where students sick with Covid like illness are sent to await parent pick up. This can have multiple students at any one time. Some schools have 2 designated care rooms.

-complete FCPS Covid like illness form outlining symptoms

-give parent free Covid testing kit with another form outlying FCPS requirements for return to school

-answer any questions about return to school

-track and collect any and all data shared involving each student sent home or absent from school with Covid like illness

-participate in joint health department and school system meetings about Covid in the community

- track and report potential outbreaks

Seems like a 15 minute a day type job that could be done by one of the many office staff or the aide in the nurse's office.[/quote]

Up until a week or two ago, it was.  Then it became a much larger job.[/quote]

It's a big job now at our school!   And during the downtimes our case manager would do things like take over lunch monitoring, sub, whatever extra needed to be done during the down times so that teachers could be freed up to fill the gaps elsewhere.  It was useful to have a "floater" when so many people are out and this was an allowed way to use the pandemic funding.  [/quote]
