Welcome to Health Services

Nursing Philosophy

Given the pervasive effects of trauma on health, Nursing and Wellness will embrace the school community in the practice of Mindfulness, Restorative Practices, and the use of evidence-based research to achieve safety, health, and well-being.

Our Health Services staff can:

• Assess health needs
• Provide communicable disease control
• Perform mandated health screenings
• Train unlicensed staff to provide health care

Health Clerks are unlicensed personnel with training in First Aid, CPR, Medication Administration, and Specialized Procedures as needed under the direct supervision of the credentialed school nurse.

What to expect in the Health Office

The Health Office may be staffed by a Registered Nurse, Health Clerk, and/or both on different days. There is ongoing communication between our staff in the Health Office to ensure seamless care for your student. If the Health Clerk has any questions or requires clarification a Registered Nurse is always available.
