My mission as a school nurse is to promote excellence in nursing practice by identifying, preventing, removing and/or minimizing, and managing barriers to educating the child.  In addition to nursing interventions, my plans of care will include promoting the education, health and well-being of my students.  I will communicate my knowledge and skills with the children, parents, educators, and any others who come within my circle of influence as a school nurse.



 

My mission as a school nurse


When I think about all the patients and their loved ones that I have worked with over the years, I know most of them don't remember me nor I them.  But I do know that I gave a little piece of myself to each of them and they to me and those threads make up the beautiful tapestry in my mind that is my career in nursing.
