National School Nurse Day

School nurses are being recognized today across the nation.

A school nurse in Colorado Springs tells KRDO that more nurses are needed in the school system.

The nurse says schools should have one nurse for every 750 students, but the reality is a far cry from that recommendation. About 59% of schools have a higher ratio of students to available nurses.

Hear from local school nurses tonight on KRDO NewsChannel 13.
