Health Screening Information
The school nurse performs a health assessment on pupils for possible health problems that might interfere with the child’s classroom performance. The screening procedures may include a health history, parent/teacher observations and the nurse’s professional evaluation. The school nurse will make a referral if an area of concern is identified.
