Primary Responsibilities:
- Deliver 1:1 nursing care to a student during the school day, focused on suctioning and tube feeding
- Act as an additional nursing support in the classroom, maintaining student health and well-being
- Coordinate with other healthcare professionals, including the nurse assigned to bus duties
- Ensure accurate documentation of treatments, assessments, and student observations
- Provide coverage in other areas of the building as needed should the primary student be absent
- Uphold health and safety protocols aligned with school policies
Why You’ll Love This Role:
- Make a genuine impact on a student’s daily experience and development
- Gain valuable clinical and collaborative experience within a supportive school environment
