Emergencies: Preparing for the Unthinkable

NASN Radio Show Sponsored by School Health and LifeSecure

"There is a level of chaos that is going to ensue, and so allowing a nurse not to have to worry about her emergency supplies because they are strapped to her back really allowed her to be focused on the children who really were the most important part of any kind of emergency." - Cynthia Devore, MD

Host Donna J. Mazyck, RN, MS, NCSN talks with Cynthia Devore, MD and Gail Wold, Coordinator for New York State School Health Services Center, about effectively preparing for school emergency situations. Topics include common first aid emergencies school nurses should be prepared for, what nurses are currently using for emergency preparedness supplies, a list of supplies that should be included in emergency backpacks, and more.
