Public Health Nurses in Schools
Comprehensive School Health (CSH) has four components, Instruction, Healthy Physical Environments,
Support Services and Social Supports. The goal of the CSH approach is to develop a plan which
incorporates many programs, policies and services in all of the four components.
Public Health Nurses (PHN)
coordinate a range of school health initiatives in schools with a variety of health department staff
across The Region of Peel. Using a
comprehensive school health framework
PHN's help schools identify health issues
that affect the school community and work together to develop a comprehensive plan to manage them.
Your
PHN can provide support on...
- Assessing the health needs of an individual class, school or greater school community.
- Developing of a strategy to address identified health issues.
- Assisting in carrying out planned activities with school partners using best practices research.
- Evaluating the success of planned activities.
