Our colleagues at Northeastern University School Health Academy (NEUSHA) are known for providing high-level professional development opportunities for school nurses. This has never been more apparent than during COVID when NEUSHA has been ahead of the curve with cutting-edge COVID related topics that impact school nursing practice. I am proud to be one of the panelists this Thursday, November 18th at 4 pm ET to talk about all things COVID vaccine-related. Join me and a panel of school health experts, including of my favorite Pediatricians, Dr. Mary Beth Miotto. We will have an informative, wide-ranging discussion that will cover vaccine confidence, school located vaccination clinics, challenges, opportunities, and the school nurse experience managing it all!
