Advancement · School Operations

Every visit logged,
every call home made.

A busy health office sees the same patterns a paper log hides: the student here every Tuesday, the head bump that never got a call home, the fever that went back to class. Log each visit in under a minute. The log counts time out of class, checks temperatures against the 100.4°F fever line and lists students with repeat visits.

Signs drawn from the CDC HEADS UP materials for schools. The school nurse and the student’s doctor decide care.

Repeat visits are information

A student in the office every week may have an unmanaged health condition, may be avoiding a class, or may be hungry or worried about something at home. The side panel lists anyone with two or more visits in 30 days so the pattern reaches the counselor, the family or the teacher.

Codes, not names

Use the student codes your school already uses. The log stays in this browser; the official health record stays in the school’s own system under its privacy rules.
