2024 in Review: Milestones, Resources, and Inspiration for School Nurses

As 2024 comes to a close, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the milestones, achievements, and the incredible connections we’ve built this year at The School Nurse LLC. From launching a brand new website complete with approved Continuing Education courses and digital resources to sharing content with school nurses everywhere, this year has been nothing short of amazing. I'm ready to take a moment to celebrate some highlights and look back on what made this year truly special.

Continuing Education Courses for School Nurses

This year, I introduced several new continuing education (CE) courses designed to empower school nurses and help them navigate their specialty roles with confidence. One of the standout courses, HOT TOPICS FOR NEW SCHOOL NURSES: Kickstart Your Journey With Confidence, quickly became a favorite, for new school nurses. 

Another crowd-pleaser, IEPs & SCHOOL NURSES: ESSENTIAL BEGINNER BASICS, served as a guide to understanding the IEP process, qualifying disabilities, and working with colleagues. This course gave school nurses the confidence to collaborate effectively with special education teachers and special services staff, reinforcing their role as strong team players.

I'm thrilled to see how many of you enrolled in these courses, shared your experiences, and used the tools to grow professionally. Your dedication is inspiring and pushes me to keep developing resources specific to your needs.





Best-Selling School Nurse Products of 2024

This year, school nurses discovered (and rediscovered!) some of the best tools and products to support their practice through our affiliate recommendations. Of course my all time favorite is still THIS PRODUCT, but here’s a look at the top-selling products other school nurses purchased:

Amazon Favorites: The portable pulse oximeter, resource books, and fun t-shirts were absolute hits among school nurses looking for practical and fun tools for their clinics.



Teachers Pay Teachers Resources: Editable templates for individualized healthcare plans and medication administration and inventory sheets were in high demand, helping school nurses stay organized and efficient.




Etsy Finds: Custom nurse badge reels and bulletin board decor items topped the charts, but nothing can match a school nurse specific t-shirt- and these 3 were the top three!



Zazzle Treasures: School nurse-themed items on Zazzle were perfect for office use and decor!
