Toronto, Canada Natrona County School Full time

Parents are responsible for the health and well being of their children. It is not the
intent of the school to relieve the parents of their responsibilities. School health
services supplement, rather than substitute for, parental care and concern for the

intervention, evaluation management, and referral activities. The School Nurse
serves as the direct link between physicians, families, and community agencies to
assure access and continuity of health care for students concerning health-related
issues. The School Nurse may also provide nursing assessments for staff as a
professional courtesy. The School Nurse upholds and adheres to professional
standards and performs all duties in compliance with the Wyoming Nurse Practice
