  | School nurse office a \'safe haven\' for students Wednesday, November 10, 2004: School nurse office a 'safe haven' for students:"Franklin High School nurse Virginia Sundberg carefully examines a splint she placed on a student's thumb a few hours earlier. "I splinted it, but it's not responding to first aid treatment," said Sundberg. "He hurt it playing football two days ago. He needs X-rays and I told him he needs to go see the doctor. Sometimes the students think the pain will just go away, but he can't move it. It's good for us to give these kids a push for treatment when they need it." The life of a school nurse these days can be very hectic. According to the National Association of School Nurses, there should be one school nurse per 750 students that do not have health problems. Sundberg, with the help of a part-time health aide, is faced every day with about 1,500 students at Franklin High School." http://www.milforddailynews.com/loca...rticleid=59535 Andrew Lopez, RN http://www.4nursing.com |
