Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The NASN recommends that school nurses be registered nurses (RNs) with BSNs and special certification in school nursing. Licensed practical nursing education is insufficient. School nurse practitioner and master of science in nursing with specialization in school nursing exceeds the minimum recommendations for school nurses.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The nurse may perform the role of case manager for the child who is disabled or chronically ill needing to see many health care providers. The role of case manager is used when coordinating the health care of students with complex health problems. The role of health educator is used when teaching students about the importance of proper nutrition. As a consultant, the school nurse can provide professional information about proposed changes in the school environment and their impact on the health of the children. As a counselor, the school nurse may be the person whom the children trust to tell important secrets about their health.
