School Nursing Program Overview

Benefits of a School Nursing Program

Our School Nurse Program is a great way for schools to improve the health of their students and staff, reduce absenteeism, and eliminate liability associated with staff providing medical services. In addition to performing a broad range of health functions, HealthBar School Nurses communicate with parents/guardians, school staff, public health agencies, and physicians’ offices regarding communicable disease outbreaks and other health concerns. Our school nurses are often called upon to advise school administrators in formulating health policies or protocols. They can also plan and implement school-wide health education campaigns or activities such as health fairs or special health observance days and may give presentations to parents, guardians, or community groups.

HealthBar School Nurses can also be responsible for organizing and maintaining health-related documents, such as immunization records and health information forms for each student.

Quality Care, Whenever (and Wherever) You Need It

In addition to our onsite nursing teams, your school will have exclusive access to telehealth and drive-thru consultations with our medical providers. Your students and staff can get clinician-quality services without ever having to enter a clinic—making their health care convenient and seamless.

A Wide Range of Clinical Support Options

Our team of qualified nurses is here to offer your school the clinical support it needs to make sure students and staff stay healthy and safe. With an onsite RN assigned to each location, HealthBar can offer a wide range of services and support options to meet your exact needs, whether that’s medication administration, illness and injury treatment, policy development, or other health and wellness needs.
