Health Services

Research has shown that students with an optimal level of wellness are more receptive to the learning process. Therefore, North St. Paul-Maplewood-Oakdale health services staff strive to create an environment that promotes and supports student achievement, health, and well-being.

The primary goals of health services are to minimize or eliminate health-related barriers to learning and assist students to be self-sufficient in managing their health care within age-appropriate expectations. To accomplish this, health services staff, as part of the school team, strive to:

  • Promote student wellness
  • Provide skilled nursing services
  • Encourage healthy behaviors and self-care
  • Assess and communicate student health concerns through referral to parents/guardians

The model of health services in ISD 622 uses a combination of Licensed School Nurses (LSN), Public Health Nurses (PHN), Registered Nurses (RN), and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN).

  • Health Services Supervisors are the LSN's who oversee the health services department. They are responsible for creating and reviewing health-related policies and procedures, quality assurance, staffing, and responding to crises. 
  • PHN's are responsible for coordinating and managing the health needs of individual students during the school day as well as promoting health and safety for all students. They are also a part of the special education team and ensure appropriate accommodations for students with significant medical conditions. 
  • RN's provide direct care in the health office for ill and injured students, support in coordinating and managing individual health needs, and promote health and safety for all students.
  • LPN's provide direct care in the health office for ill and injured students and carry out delegated nursing activities performed under RN supervision.
