Fast Facts for the School Nurse provides quick access to information that busy school nurses need to practice competently and efficiently. Written by a nurse with more than 25 years of school nursing experience, this consistently organized reference offers straightforward guidelines to a range of daily tasks and nursing responsibilities. It provides clinical protocols for safe management of common childhood illnesses, accidents, and emergencies, along with legal and ethical considerations, documentation, and high-risk areas in school nursing practice.
The fourth edition has been substantially revised. Of significance is the first chapter which provides Words of Wisdom from school nurses and self-help guidance. Included also is expanded coverage of mental health issues, gender identity and transgenderism, and drug use. Information on technology in the school health office will also be updated. In addition, the new edition features new information on the COVID-19 pandemic and its lasting influence on school nursing practice. The summary questions at the end of each chapter will provide readers with immediate feedback.
