School nurses utilize specific interventions from the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) system. This study identified 114 NIC interventions used monthly by school nurses, with 32 used weekly.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Public Health
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • School nurses play a vital role in student, family, and employee health.
  • Defining and standardizing school nursing practice is essential for effective healthcare delivery.
  • The Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) provides a framework for nursing actions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify which specific nursing interventions, as listed in the NIC, are commonly employed by school nurses.
  • To establish a baseline understanding of the scope of practice for school nurses in relation to standardized interventions.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was mailed to school nurses to gather data on their intervention usage.
  • The study analyzed the return of 78 usable surveys from 174 mailed, achieving a 45% response rate.

  • Researchers cross-referenced reported interventions with the comprehensive list of 433 NIC interventions.

    • Main Results:

    • School nurses reported using 114 out of 433 NIC interventions at least monthly.
    • A significant subset of 32 interventions were identified as being used by school nurses on a weekly basis.
    • The findings highlight a substantial application of standardized nursing interventions within the school setting.

    Conclusions:

    • School nurses actively implement a wide range of interventions from the NIC system.
    • Regular use of specific NIC interventions indicates a structured approach to school-based nursing care.
    • Further research can refine the understanding of NIC intervention application in diverse school environments.
