3 HEALTH SERVICES DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Health Services Department is to enhance the educational potential of all students in the Clark County School District by promoting wellness and facilitating the resolution of health concerns, which create barriers to learning. STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES DIVISION MISSION STATEMENT The division provides leadership, services, and support to protect student rights and strengthen the capacity of schools, families and communities to enhance success through collaboration in the educational process. Page A-3 of A-15

4 The School Health Program and the Role of the School Nurse The primary goals of the school health program are to: Facilitate access to primary health care Provide mandated health screening and referrals Provide immunization monitoring Provide a process for the identification and resolution of students health needs that affect their education Promote prevention and early intervention Provide acute, chronic, episodic, and emergency health care Provide health education and health counseling Collaborate with parents, community agencies, and the medical community The school nurse functions as a member and leader of the school health program. School nursing is a specialty branch of professional nursing which seeks to identify or prevent student health problems and intervenes to remedy or modify these problems. School nurses apply nursing practice to the unique needs of individuals, groups, and populations of schools. The school nurse promotes and implements the Standards of School Nursing Practice as established by the profession. The purpose of school nursing is to enhance the educational process by maximizing the health and well-being of school-aged children and adolescents physically, intellectually, socially and emotionally. The school nurse accomplishes this through the modification and/or removal of health-related barriers to learning and through the promotion of an optimum level of wellness. School nurses provide services to students 3 through 21 years of age in general and special education settings. The school nurse utilizes the nursing process in decision-making and in determining any action plan. Decisionmaking is based on a systematic process in which the school nurse assesses, plans, implements, and evaluates. School nurses are the pivotal component in the continuity of care through the coordination, planning, delivery and assessment of school health services. The practice of school nursing has expanded and diversified to meet the needs of medically complex students. Public laws and federal mandates have expanded nursing services to students with special needs and provided education in the least restrictive environment. School nurses provide complex health procedures in the school setting, such as gastric tube feedings, catheterization and tracheal suctioning. This comprehensive scope of practice demands appropriate educational preparation to enable nurses to perform their roles effectively and meet the contemporary health needs of students in our society. The Standards of School Nursing Practice (American Nurses Association), the Guidelines for a Model School Nursing Service Program and The School Nursing Scope and Standards of Practice (National Association of School Nurses) serve as the foundation for school nursing practice. School nurses must be familiar with these documents and base their school nursing practice on the theoretical framework. School nurses must also be knowledgeable regarding the Nevada Nurse Practice Act and Advisory Opinion, IDEA, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and CCSD policies and regulations. Page A-4 of A-15
