Health Services

What We Do:

Parents/guardians have primary responsibility for the health care their children receive, but schools have a responsibility for health and safety while children are at school.  Health services include programs, services, and activities that assure a healthy environment, thereby promoting and protecting the health, learning, and well-being of all students.  The school clinics are available for emergencies, injuries, and illness that arise while the child is at school, in addition to management of chronic illnesses and special needs.  Each FTCSC clinic is staffed with a Community Health Network nurse (RN or LPN), provided at no cost to the school district.  Nurses do not make medical diagnoses, but are skilled in assessment, data collection, planning, intervention, evaluation, wellness promotion, health education, prevention, emergency care, referral, and communicable disease surveillance.

You may always call the school and ask to speak to the Nurse located at each of our schools.
