NursePass for Schools

NursePass is a FERPA-compliant technology that provides peace of mind for students, school nurses and teachers. In addition, parents/guardians are afforded the same peace of mind upon downloading NursePort (the NursePass companion app) also available in the App Store.

NursePass digitizes the communication from classroom teacher to the school nurse with instant custom notifications about the student's wellness status.

Best for Pre-K and K-12 schools and academies. Also used for students and/or patients of any kind by daycare centers, camp counselors, interscholastic athletic trainers, events for children, and higher education settings.

NursePass app for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is designed for school nurses and teachers. It can be used right away by teachers to create classrooms of students to send health referrals to the nurse. The nurse will then receive the referral from the app to check the student in and record treatment and dispositions. Everyone in the process is kept informed via instant push notifications within NursePass to the teacher, and NursePort to the parents/guardian. The data collected can be used to keep health records in the school's main health database.
