Crystal Cox
School & Child Care Coordinator
Wyoming Department of Health Immunization Unit
More than ever school staff are looking for ways to maximize every minute of their day. With hundreds of students to manage and care for, school nurses are well-versed in the art of doing several tasks, with few resources. Among those, a small portion of their responsibilities is assessing and managing student immunization records which can be a time-consuming task, and while it is a small portion of their responsibilities, the assessment of student records is largely impactful to the health and safety of our children and community. The WyIR School Nurse Module is an excellent tool to accurately and efficiently assess and manage student immunization records. This session will be an interactive walkthrough of access levels and functions of the school nurse module, such as logging in or generating full school reports.
This session is valuable for all school nurses and other school staff who assess student records and who want to learn more about how the Wyoming Immunization Registry (WyIR) School Nurse Module can work for you.
