We explored the role of school nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic by conducting interviews and focus groups with them in 2022 and 2023 in an urban public school district. Findings indicated that school nurses played an essential public health role in engaging the school community, overseeing COVID-19 testing, and enforcing risk mitigation strategies during the pandemic. Our results contribute to understanding school nurses' experiences during the pandemic and highlight the need for training and support for their vital role.

我们在 2022 年至 2023 年期间通过对城市公立学区的学校护士进行访谈和焦点小组讨论,探讨了他们在 COVID-19 大流行期间的角色。研究结果表明,学校护士在参与学校社区、监督 COVID-19 检测以及在大流行期间执行风险缓解策略方面发挥了重要的公共卫生作用。我们的研究结果有助于了解学校护士在大流行期间的经历,并强调了为他们这一重要角色提供培训和支持的必要性。(2024;114(S5):S402-S404。https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307591)。
