Is it time for more nurses in schools?
“. . .
NDP education critic Claudia Chender, who represents Dartmouth South, said in an interview that her party does not have a specific policy on school nurses, but ‘we know there are not enough school nurses.’
Chender said, ‘Obviously with the pandemic being a reality for us, we know we need increased attention and investment in health and safety in schools. And school nurses would be a part of that… Our party has advocated for increased health delivery in schools, particularly for people who wouldn’t get those services on their own.’
