Your role
School nurse
Your day as school nurse in Kila, from the sick bay visits and medication given to telling guardians when a child is sent home or referred.
As school nurse you keep the sick bay: each visit with the complaint, the treatment and the medication given, the learners’ medical notes, and the guardians told when a child is sent home or referred. These records are restricted: only the nurse, the matron and the head see them.

- Through the day. When a child resting goes back to class or home, change the outcome on their row.
- Sent home or referred. Kila texts the guardian that the child was seen and to call the school, never the complaint. Call the guardian too.
