Welcome to the WSMS Nurse's Office!
Our goal is to keep your student healthy, happy, and in class as much as possible.
This is my first year as a school nurse. I have been a nurse for 17+ years and have previously done Pediatric ICU, inpatient pediatrics, pediatric mental health, pediatric cardiology and nephrology, and inpatient adult ICU and floor care. I moved to Spring Hill in 2018 with my husband and five children.
Please let me know if your child has any health needs while they are at school so I can provide the best possible care. Prescription medication that needs to be administered while in school must be in a labeled prescription bottle from the pharmacy and have a doctor's order. Any over-the-counter medication needs to be in its original container with a note from a parent/guardian. If your student needs to be excused from PE or sports due to an injury, I will need a signed doctor's note for activity restrictions.
Your child may have vision and hearing screenings performed this year. You will be notified if your child has failed any of these screenings.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I will try to return any phone call as promptly as possible.
