Service, and 3 years as the School Nurse at Oppenheim-Ephratah Central

York State Association of School Nurses. One of her favorite sayings

a familiar face- Mrs. Judy Millard. She helps out in the morning and
at lunchtime- and is always willing to lend a helping hand and do whatever
is needed. Smiles are readily shared!!
"School nursing is a specialized practice of professional nursing that
advances the well being, academic success, and life-long achievement of
students. To that end, school nurses facilitate positive student responses
to normal development; promote health and safety; intervene with actual and
potential health problems; provide case management services; and actively
collaborate with others to build student and family capacity for adaptation,
self-management, self-advocacy and learning." National Association of
School Nurses, 1999.
