Nursing

still feeling the loss of the school health grant
lost substitute nurses (for sick days, etc)
funded for 42 full time nurses; we have 41 right now
maintain pool of candidates, interviewing soon
Used to have more nurses than were budgeted by this committee

"it appears the city is going to have to fund its nurses through tax levys"

We have never had a fully staffed program of nurses, not when covered by the city, not now that it's covered by the school committee

request for a report on how much it would cost to staff full nurses
