School Nurse role are very important to provide better healthcare in schools. EduHealth System is specially designed for school nurse to record student data

1. School nurses' role in
Providing medical care
in schools
The smooth delivery of comprehensive health care to children
and adolescents is made possible in large part by the school
nurse. A growing number of kids enrol in schools with ongoing
medical issues that need to be managed during the academic
day. The school nurse's role as a team member in delivering
preventive services, early issue detection, interventions, and
referrals to promote health and academic achievement is
described for paediatricians in this policy statement.

2. Preparation, continuous education, and adequate
staffing levels of school nurses are crucial components
for success in providing children with the best care
possible. The working connection between the school
nurse and the child's medical home is made easier
with the help of recommendations. The National
Association of School Nurses has approved of this
claim.

3. school-based medical centres, which can be found
on-site or close by and offer a range of medical
services, such as general care, mental health services,
dental care, counselling for substance misuse, nutrition
instruction, and more, in addition to treating minor
injuries like cuts and bruises. Nicholas Freudenberg, a
professor of public health at the City University of New
York School of Public Health, said that these activities
"bring health care to where the children are, and they're
a really excellent method to deliver health care to
children who may not otherwise get it."

4. Community schools and other public schools that have
come to understand how difficult it is for many kids to get
their health problems properly discovered and treated have
made school-based health facilities a defining
characteristic of their institutions. For people residing in
low-income urban or rural settings, these difficulties may
be very severe. Needed services are frequently postponed
until there is a crisis, according to experts. This is especially
true if a parent needs to take time out of work or find a
babysitter, or if transportation is difficult or prohibitively
expensive to bring a kid to a doctor's appointment.

5. According to Azure Angelov, the project's director,
the non-profit Paramount Health Data Project
discovered that students' academic performance
on state-wide tests decreased the more frequently
they visited the school nurse. The project recently
published a report on students' health conditions in
public and private schools in Indiana. According to
Dr. Angelov and colleagues in the paper, the
project's data "indicates that pupils who are
regular visitors to the school nurse are simply ill
and frequently do not feel well throughout the
school day." Their capacity to learn is being
impacted by this.

6. Although most public schools employ at least one
full-time or part-time nurse, it is scarcely enough
to take care of children who sometimes have
complicated and linked health issues that might
interfere with learning. For instance, a youngster
with poorly managed asthma may refrain from
physical activity and struggle to fall asleep, which
is when the brain consolidates memories. That
youngster may also require food and exercise
recommendations, help removing allergens from
the house, and regular follow-up in addition to
medicine and normal care.

7. ROLE OF A
SCHOOL NURSE
o promote children's and adolescents' health and
academic performance, the National Association of
School Nurses has identified seven essential duties that
the school nurse must carry out.
The duties are extensive and are relevant to school
nurses at all practise levels, in all geographical contexts,
and with all types of clients.

8. Students receive direct treatment from the school nurse.
All kids are treated for injuries and acute illnesses by the school nurse, and pupils with medical
requirements are managed long-term. The provision of prescribed nursing care or its
monitoring, contact with parents, referrals to physicians, and evaluation and treatment within
the parameters of professional nursing practise are all responsibilities. For kids with chronic
diseases, an individual health care plan is created, and when necessary, an emergency plan
is created to handle potential emergent situations in the school environment. This health plan
needs to be closely coordinated with the paediatrician’s management strategy and updated
on a regular basis. The school nurse oversees managing this plan and informing the proper
parties about the plan. To store students data EduHealth introduced electronic health record
management system, it will uses millions of schools.

9. The school nurse acts as a leader in the delivery of medical care. The school nurse
evaluates the whole care system and creates a plan to make sure that health needs are
satisfied in her capacity as the institution's health care specialist. The creation of
preparations for handling crises and natural catastrophes, as well as private
communication with and documentation of student health information, are all
responsibilities.

10. A healthy learning environment is encouraged by the school nurse. 13 The school nurse
oversees vaccines, ensures proper exclusion for infectious illnesses, and reports
communicable diseases in accordance with the legislation to ensure the physical and
psychological safety of the school community. The school nurse also contributes to
environmental safety monitoring (playgrounds, interior air quality, and possible dangers) to
ensure the environment is safe. The school nurse takes part in the implementation of a
strategy for the prevention and control of incidents of bullying, violence in schools, natural
catastrophes, and terrorism. The school nurse may collaborate with the school counsellors
to create programmes for preventing suicide.

11. Health is promoted by the school nurse. Through health education, science, and other
subjects, the school nurse educates children about their health on an individual basis as
well as in groups.
The school nurse offers programmes for employees, families, and the community as well as
helping on teams that produce health education curricula. Nutrition, exercise, smoking
cessation, dental health, prevention of STDs and other infectious illnesses, drug use and
abuse, vaccines, teen pregnancy prevention, parenting, and other subjects may be included
in health education. In regional school health councils, school nurses also advocate for
health.

12. The school nurse has a key role in setting health-related policies and initiatives. The school
nurse is a pioneer in the creation and assessment of school health policy because she is a
medical specialist inside the educational system. The following policies are included in
them: mental health protection and intervention, acute sickness management, chronic
disease management, coordinated school health programmes, school wellness policies,
crisis/disaster management, emergency medical condition management.

13. The school nurse acts as a point of contact for the community, parents, doctors, and
students. The school nurse serves as the health expert on the IEP17 and 504 teams. IEP teams
identify the students' special education needs, and teams recommend acceptable
adjustments for those requirements that affect the children's educational programmes. As
the case manager for children with health difficulties, the school nurse ensures sure that there
is enough communication and coordination among the family, doctors, and providers of
community resources. This engagement is crucial for the doctor and school nurse to provide
consistent, coordinated care. The school nurse also works with neighbourhood organisations
and primary care in order to ensure a healthy environment for all kids and families. School
Nurse record keeping system is very helpful to the school nurses who will work in different
schools and handles lot of students
