Relentless School Nurse

MARCH 1, 2024

Eileen Gavin is President of the New Jersey State School Nurse Association (NJSSNA) and she has an important message to share about the significance of returning to in-person school nursing conferences. Her message is heartfelt and aims to encourage the return of in-person attendance as a way to reconnect and regroup. We spend so much time in isolation as school nurses, that when given an opportunity to convene face to face, it can be healing and bolster our resilience.

For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic? Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

The most recent state is Wyoming, passing a bill that under the guise of “protecting parental rights,” requires schools to create lists of “routine” school nursing services that parents will have to agree to.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.

In fact, the movie clip demonstrated that even during tense situations physical activity can help address stress.

When a baby is born, a doctor cuts the umbilical cord. From that moment on, they’re physically unattached to a parent. They are free, so to speak. Most parents immediately attach an imaginary rope from themselves to the child. This invisible rope needs to be short and taut for the baby’s protection. Otherwise, they fall or starve. As our children develop, we lengthen the rope to allow for more mobility.
