I have been at Blasdell for over 17 years. I have three children, all Frontier graduates and 4 active grandchildren. I have a dog and enjoy reading and gardening when I have time.

My role as your school nurse involves many things, but the most important one is the children. I promote student health, optimal development and academic success.  I maintain all health records, following all the mandated requirements given by NYS. They include mandated physicals, immunizations, and health screenings such as vision and hearing. I provide first aid and health assessments, write care plans and coordinate the care of students with chronic and acute health conditions. I educate and communicate with the staff to ensure the safety and well being of all students. I administer medications, follow doctors' orders for care of students. I assist in the evaluations of students for special services. I work closely with the counseling leaders of our school to do a team approach for all our students.

Even on the most challenging of days, I love my job and working here at Blasdell Elementary.
