Hello!
My name is Shannon and I am an RN & EMT-B working as the Coordinator for Health Services in our local school district. I have been an HIV/AIDS/ Bloodborne Pathogens educator for our county. I currently volunteer with our local EMS as an EMT and working on my paramedic's licensure and on various committees with the state to better our school health programs.
My first three years working for the school district, I worked in a public school for moderate & severely handicapped students. This is the fifth year I have been in my current position. I am actively involved in the School Health Advisory committee and believe that team effort is the key to increasing the health and well-being of all our students. Together Health & Education personnel can make a difference!
On a personal note, I am a separated parent with 2 children. I have been a foster parent as well as a step-parent. I understand what it's like to be a parent using the health room frequently throughout the year as well.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL OF THIS..... Homeopathic Immunization Drops: The advertisement states such ideas as "The fist bottle stimulates the body to overcome all the childhood virus diseases. The second bottle does the same for bacterial diseases, and the third bottle is for fungal diseases. It is that simple!"
It is based at CCUSA, Homeo-VAX Dept.
7315 E. Evans Road Scottsdale, AZ 85260. No phone number or anyone's actual name connected to this. This sounds like a scam or someone who is trying to take advantage of a lot of parents who are trying to find alternatives to immunizations. REMEMBER: This is not something supported by CDC, FDA, or the Pediatric Associations around the USA. Please caution your parents and give them plenty of information about the advantages of what immunizations can do for their child.
