School nurses have faced many professional challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. Focus group interviews were employed as a data collection method in this qualitative study to describe the perspectives of school nurses during the pandemic. Themes relevant to school nurse experiences and suggestions for change were identified. School nurses have demonstrated their essential role in facilitating health for students, staff, and families. Policymakers and the public must recognize this value. School nurses are encouraged to leverage opportunities for visibility within and beyond their own communities to enhance recognition of their role. School nurses should also lead the development of additional resources such as web-based health content and practice guidelines. Providing school nurses with resources needed to support their practice is essential so that, in turn, students may be cared for.
在新冠疫情期间，学校护士面临着诸多专业挑战。在这项定性研究中，焦点小组访谈被用作一种数据收集方法，以描述疫情期间学校护士的观点。确定了与学校护士经历相关的主题以及变革建议。学校护士在促进学生、教职员工和家庭的健康方面发挥了至关重要的作用。政策制定者和公众必须认识到这一价值。鼓励学校护士利用在其所在社区内外提高知名度的机会，以增强对其角色的认可。学校护士还应牵头开发更多资源，如基于网络的健康内容和实践指南。为学校护士提供支持其工作所需的资源至关重要，这样才能反过来照顾好学生。
