Scottish framework for nursing in schools launched

A Scottish framework for nursing in schools was last week launched by health minister Malcolm Chisholm, who said it would revolutionise school nursing and banish 'the old image of the nit nurse'. Mr Chisholm highlighted the early years as a key priority for health improvement. Nurses will assess the health needs of each school and develop plans to form the basis of the nursing team's work. They will work in partnership with children and parents to promote healthy lifestyles.
