Nurse Jobs in Massachusetts

A School Nurse plays a vital role in the school administration industry by promoting health education among students and managing health conditions within the school environment. This includes conducting health screenings, offering health counseling, administering medications to students, and managing emergency situations. They also play an integral role in creating and implementing school health policies, including those related to nutrition and physical activity, substance abuse, and infectious diseases. Additionally, school nurses are responsible for handling health records of students and ensuring that any health information is accurately documented and kept confidential.

Important skills for a School Nurse include strong communication and interpersonal skills, the ability to work independently, decision-making skills, patience, and empathy. They should also have a comprehensive knowledge of child health and development, school health services, public health systems, and community health resources. To become a school nurse, one typically needs to be a Registered Nurse (RN) and may also need to obtain a certification in school nursing. Some roles a person may have before becoming a School Nurse might include working as a Staff Nurse in a pediatric setting, a Public Health Nurse, or a Pediatric Nurse in a hospital.
