Mission Statement
Mission - Our goal in School
Health Services is to support the educational
process of the students in
Pinellas County.
"School nursing is a
specialized practice of professional nursing that advances
the well being,
academic success, and life-long achievement of students. To that end,
school
nurses facilitate positive student responses to normal development; promote
health and safety; intervene with actual and potential health problems;
provide
case management services; and actively collaborate with others to
build student
and family capacity for adaptation, self-management,
self-advocacy, and learning."

Statement adopted by National Association of School
Nurses, 1999.
