In the context of school nursing, moral injury occurs when nurses are confronted with situations or decisions that challenge their deeply held moral or ethical beliefs. This is the story of a dedicated group of school nurses in Texas who took a public stance against a woefully misguided school administration that chose dollars over public health.
