From Nurse Beth!
The CDC recommends a yearly flu vaccine as the first and most
important step in protecting against flu viruses. Getting a flu
vaccine during 2020-2021 will be more important than ever. It’s not
too early to get your flu vaccine! Flu vaccines will not prevent
COVID-19, but they will reduce the burden of flu illnesses,
hospitalizations, and deaths on the health care system and conserve
scarce medical resources for the care of people with COVID-19. As
we look forward to students being back in the building, don’t
forget that Nurse Beth will need updated seizure action plans,
medication authorization, asthma action plans, and emergency action
plans. Email her at [email protected] or call
the school at 980-343-6300 and ask to speak to Nurse Beth for
questions.
