Today, May 7th, is National School Nurse Day.
Did you know that our CCS School Nurses are certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid? As integral healthcare professionals in our schools, school nurses work in collaboration with school staff, parents, other healthcare professionals and community providers to support a wrap-around approach to improve the overall health and wellbeing of students.
For this week’s Wellness Wednesdays video, hear from Dr. Kate King, School Nurse at World Language Middle School and President of the National Association of School Nurses.
Thank you to all of our school nurses for all you do to ensure students are healthy, safe, and ready to learn - and live - to their highest potential!
If you are interested in Youth or Adult Mental Health First Aid certification for you or your staff, fill out a request on our Wellness website.
