Have you started collecting your DATA yet? Please visit: https://www.nasn.org/research/everystudentcounts to find out more about this initiative so you can get started collecting data that you can use to make a difference locally and across the country!
The National Association of School Nurses' (NASN) data Initiative, the National School Health Data Set: Every Student Counts! is designed to encourage a robust national school health data set that will:
- Influence local, state, and national student health policy;
- Identify best practices in school health; and
- Better understand child health.
This design will lead to policies that better support the needs of students, increase evidence-based school nursing practice, and better youth health outcomes.
Data helps build bridges that connect school nursing to the rest of the healthcare system. This initiative provides the support and structure for the collection and use of data by every school nurse. Read the complete initiative vision document.
