Nurse and childVision:     All Children in Charlotte County Will Be Healthy

Mission:   Perform Reviews of School Health Records and Provide Child School Health Services

School based health services are an important component of the Public Health system and help assure that Florida students are healthy in the classroom and ready to learn.

Nurses in the health room are action forces that impact the lives of students while they are in school. They do assessments, they council, they treat cuts and bruises.  After an application of an ice pack on an injured body part, they check a pulse rate, do a blood pressure, and take a temperature.  They notify the parent or send the student back to the classroom.

Nurses are a glowing lamp in the dark
