Hopefully Helpful School Nurse Tip: If you don't make time to do what you love, no one will make the time for you. In this DOASN blog post I realize that I love writing little newsletters, but I wonder if I'll continue to make the time to do so...

About six months ago I had this great idea to start posting monthly newsletters.

They were a great creative outlet and I only wished I had "more time" to devote to them.

Fast forward to today & we are right in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic and I'm "working from home". So, sadly, I can now say I have have "more time". However, ...

I seem to have more time, but less focus.

More time, but less creativity.

More time, but less inspiration....

Anyone else feel the same way?

Regardless, below are my first few school nurse newsletters!

The School Nurse Newsletters are back on the to-do list!

I'm not sure when I'll have more time to devote to this, but at some point in time I would like to create more of these health related newsletters.

Please comment some topics you'd like me to write about.

Hopefully Helpful School Nurse Tip: Sooner or later you will be called to a health emergency somewhere within the school. Are you ready? What will you grab and take with you?

School Nurse Emergency Grab N Go Bags are a Hot Topic!

I know, because this topic is one of the most popular read posts for this blog!

School Nurse Emergency Bags

This topic is searched and read about a lot; I can only it means other school nurses want to be as prepared as possible for a health emergency in the school setting.

Since many times school nurse are the only medical professional within the school (and they work alone), they are curious what other school nurses carry in their emergency grab-n-go bags!

For years I used a medical bag (similar picture below) but I'm not in love with it. I always feel like my items are unorganized and I spend valuable time searching for what I needed. So, as we finish off the second semester of this school year, I am looking for ideas and suggestions for a new emergency bag.
