I am so blessed to be the Haggard Middle School Nurse!  This is my 6th year at Haggard.  I have been an RN for 23 years and my background includes pediatrics, ob/gyn, and ICU.  I have been married to my husband Scott for 26 years and I have a 17 year old daughter, Ella, and a 21 year old son, Jacob. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.  Go Eagles! 

The Texas Board of Nursing (BON) has provided guidance to school nurses regarding the administration of over-the-counter (OTC) medications. According to the BON, licensed nursing staff can only give OTC medications to students with a signed order from a physician, podiatrist, dentist, APRN, or PA, as well as parent authorization. This is to meet the standards of the Nursing Practice Act, regardless of what is stated in a district's handbook or Board Policy.

Students will need a Medication Authorization Form that is signed by the parents/guardians and their doctor.  Your student's primary care provider may also send a note stating it is ok to give the OTC medication to your child with medication instructions.  Click the link below for the proper form.
