Frequently Asked Questions
What is the role of a school nurse?
School nurses play a vital role in helping schools meet the health needs of their students. Their clinical expertise helps schools respond to illness, injury, and ongoing medical conditions while minimizing learning disruptions.
How do your nurses integrate with school staff, including IEP-related health services?
Our nurses become an extension of your school community. They partner with teachers, special education staff, and school leaders to support student health plans, provide IEP-related services, and help create a safe and supportive learning environment.
Our school nurses work closely with administrators, special education teams, teachers, and families to support student health needs. They follow district protocols and collaborate on IEP-related health services to help ensure students receive the care and accommodation necessary to participate fully in their educational experience.
If one of your nurses calls out, how quickly can you provide qualified back-fill coverage?
Student care can’t wait. If a nurse is unexpectedly unavailable, we proactively begin coordinating coverage and leverage our network of qualified nursing professionals to help maintain consistent support for your school.
How does Amergis ensure the right school nurses are matched to each district’s needs?
Open communication is key to a successful placement. We take the time to understand each district’s unique needs, culture, student population, and staffing requirements before making a placement. By working closely with district leaders, our recruiters identify nurses whose experience, skills, and approach align with the school’s specific goals and expectations.
“Our commitment doesn’t end once a nurse starts. That’s why we conduct a one-month check-in with our nurses and provide ongoing access to our internal team of clinicians, helping ensure they have the guidance and support needed throughout their assignment.” – Natasha Skutch, National Director of Clinical Operations
When needed, we can also provide alternative staffing modalities to support school needs.
