Let‘s Ask A School Nurse
from The Nurses and Hypochondriacs Podcast Hosted by Ersilia Pompilio
Most kids are back in school. Some are facing mental health challenges like depression, bullying, and claustrophobia. School Nurse Mercedes Hendrix joins us from Texas to talk about some of the new challenges kids are facing while they are attending classes in person during COVID. We'll also discuss the Texas ban on abortions past 6 weeks gestation, and California's AB1184 and AB1356 laws that safeguard reproductive health and criminalizes online threats to abortion doctors and patients. Mercedes is a registered nurse, wife, and mother of 3. She currently works as a school nurse in the Southeast region of Texas and is currently pursuing her Doctorate of Nursing Practice degree at Baylor University with a focus in Pediatric Nurse Practitioner - Primary Care. She is passionate about pediatric mental health and hopes to use her doctorate degree and APRN license to meet the gap of mental health care providers and influence political changes to meet the mental health needs of the pediatric population.
