The Metropolitan School District of Washington Township continues our collaboration with IU Health for placement and support of school nurses in the elementary and middle schools. The school health offices in these schools are staffed with either a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) or a Registered Nurse (RN) and supervised by an RN Manager. In addition, the District employs Nicole Cooper, CDA LDH BS, Supervisor of Health Science Programs and Services.
The role of the school nurse is to provide first-aid for minor illnesses and injuries for students and staff. They monitor medication administration and maintain documentation for clinical records. They do not act in place of a physician or health care facility.
The Marion County Health and Hospital Corporation continues to assist in school health matters by assigning Marion County public health nurses to each school in the township as they have done in the past. These nurses will continue to function in a collaborative role with school personnel to carry out the mandated health screenings including vision and hearing testing. They will also continue to complete any needed follow-up with parents/guardians related to these screenings. We are very fortunate to have these knowledgeable health professionals helping our schools.
Questions or concerns regarding school health services may be directed to Nicole Cooper, CDA LDH BS, Supervisor of Health Science Programs and Services: su.ni1503133949.21k.1503133949twdsm1503133949@repo1503133949ocn1503133949 or 317-259-5265 Ext. 44017
