School-based Programs 

White Earth Tribal Public Health nurses provide health education and nursing services to students in our schools across the community to optimize child health. Nationally, school nursing has been shown to significantly decrease the amount of days students missed due to asthma, the leading cause of school absenteeism. They are also able to help manage students who have chronic conditions such as diabetes, they help identify and treat accidents and injuries and can provide support for students about physical or emotional concerns.  

School-based programming includes: 
  • Dental Varnishing 
  • Hygiene Classes 
  • Puberty Classes 
  • Hearing and Vision screening 
  • Early childhood screenings 
  • School-aged vaccinations
