Sat, Feb. 19, 2005: Ohio: School nurses unprepared for attacks on students:"Long associated with treating playground scrapes and tummy aches, school nurses nationwide say they need to be more prepared for emergencies such as terrorist attacks. Many are trying to work around tight school budgets and a lack of respect as front-line responders to get the training they need to prepare for the worst. "Because of 9/11, so many things have changed," said Kathy Steffey, a school nurse at Lakeview High School in Cortland. "We have to be prepared for almost anything." Nearly half of the nurses who responded to a National Association of School Nurses survey listed emergency preparedness as their highest priority."
