Mission Statement
The
Nurses of the River Vale School District are dedicated to promoting
optimal physical and emotional health for all students, their families
and our community. Through a developmentally responsive approach to
students, we promote health and safety including a healthy environment;
provide intervention with actual and potential health problems; provide
case management services; and through active collaboration with others
we seek to build student and family capacity for adaptation,
self-management, self-advocacy and learning (NASN, 2010).
We are
dedicated to high standards of excellence, professional ethics and
personal integrity in all that we do. We believe that every inpidual has
the right to be treated with dignity and respect. We maintain students’
rights to privacy and confidentiality. Through our commitment to the
practice of school nursing and the River Vale community, our goal is to
advance the well-being, academic success and life-long achievement of
our students.
