America’s Greatest School Nurse Contest

This post has been sponsored by Pfizer Consumer Healthcare. All thoughts and reviews are my own.

As I think back to elementary school, I can remember a few times when I started feeling sick at school, whether with a virus or the flu.  I was able to go to the nurse’s office, where the nurse would help me lay down on a cool cot, administer medicine if needed, and then call my mom or grandparents to come and get me.

School nurses always have a hard job being exposed to so many germs and still staying happy and strong in order to care for all of the students in their school.

Regardless of how great school nurses are and how well we try to prevent our kids getting sick, germs are inevitable.  We try to make sure out kids wash their hands, shower after they’ve been around a bunch of other kids, but kids are going to get sick. When it happens,  Pfizer Consumer Healthcare are there for us with three solutions – Children’s Advil®, Children’s Robitussin® and Children’s Dimetapp®.

Coughs and colds are going around here like crazy.  For a child’s cough, you can trust Children’s Robitussin® Extended-Release 12 Hour Cough Relief to control and relieve symptoms all-day or all- night.  For the cold, Children’s Dimetapp® Multi-Symptom Cold Relief Dye-Free eases your child’s stuffy and runny nose, while quieting a bothersome cough.  Getting relief is sometimes the first step in getting rest and getting healthy once again.

America’s Greatest School Nurse Contest:

Does your school nurse go above and beyond in educating and comforting their students?  You can nominate them for America’s Greatest School Nurse Contest!  One nurse from every state and D.C. will win a prize pack valued at $500 and be entered to win the grand prize!  This is the title of America’s Greatest School nurse and a trip for a getaway from school sickness.

From now until February 23rd, head on over to AmericasGreatestSchoolNurse.com to nominate a wonderful school nurse in your life.  Voting will be open from April 3 to April 16 and the winners will be announced in early May.

Giveaway:

Our friends at Pfizer Consumer Healthcare would like to offer a giveaway!  One lucky reader will win a $25 Visa gift card and additional Pfizer Pediatric products [(1) Children’s Advil® Suspension, Grape, (1) Children’s Robitussin ® Extended-Release 12 Hour Cough Relief, (1) Children’s Dimetapp® Multi-Symptom Cold Relief Dye-Free].  Fill out the Rafflecopter below for your chance to win:

    I have always had good experiences with the school nurses. My daughter has visited the nurse many times over the years and received excellent care.

    My son’s elementary school nurse was so nice to both me and my son. When he fell at school, she called to let me know and when I was concerned that he might be upset, she let me talk to him.

    When I was in the 2nd grade I became very sick during school and the nurse let me lie down in her office for the entire day until my mom could take me home.

    Oh we love our school nurse. Our little one fell on the ice this winter, and she was so good helping him and making sure he was okay. I love how she gets right down to their level to talk with them and check them out!

    My 18 month old recently had pneumonia and really struggled breathing. It was so scary and pretty much all the dr said I could do was use Vicks and the dehumidifier and hold her. Thankfully that helped a lot but It was so tough to see her so sick!
