My name is
Annette Cologna and I am the full-time school nurse at Ballard High School. My nurse experience varies from working in orthopedic, psychiatric, general medical surgical to specializing in cardiac and thoracic care and, most recently, as a school nurse this past 2 years. I am passionate about working with the youth in my community and feel confident that I can attend many of your child’s ills and injuries.
The Nurses Office is located on the first floor off The Commons next to the security office. Our school nurse mission is to provide a comprehensive program of services that encompasses prevention, early detection, and remediation of health problems by providing health services, health education, and a healthy environment.
I depend on the parents to keep me informed about changes of their child’s health so that I can provide the appropriate care. Please be sure we have your current phone numbers at home, work, and cell - this is extremely important when there is a student who is really ill or needs to go to the doctor!
Please
inform me immediately if your child has a illness or potentially life-threatening condition such as:
Seizure Disorder, Diabetes, Life-Threatening Allergic Reaction, Asthma or Other.
If your child requires medicine to be brought to school an
Authorization for Medications to be Taken at School Form for the 2018-19 school year must be completed for each medication. This includes all prescription, non-prescription or over the counter remedies. Please be sure it is completed with both your signature and the signature of the prescribing licensed healthcare provider. Once completed, you may send, mail, email, or fax me the form.
In addition to nurse services,
we are fortunate to have a full-service clinic at BHS.
