Hempfield School District Health Services
Pupil service personnel who provide health services for students include certified school nurses, health room nurses, consulting physicians, physician's assistants, nurse practitioners, and dentists. When the certified school nurse must be out of the building a health room nurse who is either an RN or LPN manages the health room under the direction of the certified school nurse and building principal.
Along with caring for student and faculty illnesses and emergencies, school nurses maintain health and immunization records on all students, perform state-mandated health screenings, administer doctor prescribed medications, perform nursing procedures, assist physicians and dentists with school examinations, provide health counseling and referrals, provide classroom instruction on health related topics, and serve as a parent and classroom consultant in health related matters.
