A new scale, the School Health Intensity Rating Scale (SHIRS), was developed to classify student health status. This tool helps schools determine the necessary level of student health services.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Public Health
  • Educational Administration

Background:

  • Nursing consultants identified a need for a standardized method to classify student health.
  • Existing tools were insufficient for determining specific school-based health service requirements.
  • The U.S. Department of Education's Mountain Plains Regional Resource Center highlighted this gap.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a reliable scale for classifying student health status in educational settings.
  • To enable schools to accurately assess and provide appropriate levels of student health services.
  • To create a tool adaptable for diverse school environments.

Main Methods:

  • Collaborative development of the School Health Intensity Rating Scale (SHIRS) with Donna A. Peters, PhD, RN, FAAN.

  • Leveraging expertise from the developer of the Community Health Intensity Rating Scale (CHIRS).
  • Pilot testing of the SHIRS scale by participating school nurses and consultants.

    • Main Results:

    • The School Health Intensity Rating Scale (SHIRS) was successfully developed.
    • Initial pilot testing indicated the scale's potential utility in classifying student health needs.
    • A formal research project is underway to further validate the scale.

    Conclusions:

    • The SHIRS scale offers a promising approach to standardizing student health status classification in schools.
    • Accurate health status classification can lead to more effective allocation of school health resources.
    • Ongoing research will provide further evidence of the SHIRS scale's validity and reliability.
