Your Child’s Health Matters

School nursing, a specialized practice of nursing, protects and promotes student health, facilitates optimal development, and advances academic success. School nurses, grounded in ethical and evidence-based practice, are the leaders who bridge health care and education, provide care coordination, advocate for quality student-centered care, and collaborate to design systems that allow individuals and communities to develop their full potential.

HPISD employs professional nurses who are especially prepared and uniquely qualified in preventative health measures, health assessments, and referral procedures. Each campus nurse is equipped to treat chronic health conditions, minor injuries, and to care for students who have become ill during the day.

The HPISD Health Services staff believes that the ability for students to learn is directly related to the status of their health. School nurses deliver compassionate care to students, monitor required immunizations, perform health screenings required by the state, monitor communicable diseases, plan for health-related emergencies, and provide health information and wellness promotion.
