School nurses collaborate with other members of the school team and partner with the community, families, students, and other members of health care to advocate for student health. The School Nurse performs many nursing services for students including: first aid and emergency care. chronic disease management, education, physician ordered treatments, medication administration, and PA Department of Health mandated school health services. These screenings can identify potential health problems in students. If a problem is discovered a referral for follow-up will be sent home to the students’ parent/guardian. If your child has a health condition that may need attention or supportive care, please make that condition known to the nurse.
