I’m so excited to serve my third year as the school nurse for Aledo Middle School! Before joining the Bearcat Family, I served as a nurse for five years at Cook Children's Medical Center in Fort Worth. I grew up in California but moved to Texas to attend college at Baylor University (sic’em bears). I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Baylor and my Masters in Nursing Leadership and Management at Western Governors University.  In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family & friends, watching sports, and being outdoors!

Please feel free to contact me with any health questions or concerns you may have. I look forward to working with you to meet your child’s individual healthcare needs!

Bearcat Care

Bearcat Care offers on-site medical care at each campus clinic, catering to the healthcare needs of both students and staff. Through partnerships with local healthcare providers, telemedicine has brought medical consultations, diagnostics, and treatments right to the school buildings, effectively extending quality healthcare services across school sites in Parker County. Individuals can be seen for a wide variety of reasons, including cold and flu-like symptoms, allergies, fever, sore throat, eye redness, minor abdominal and GI complaints like nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, rash or skin infection, and earaches. The Bearcat Care program also incorporates access to diagnostic procedures allowing for quick and accurate testing for strep infections, COVID-19, flu, and other respiratory illnesses. Last school year, nearly 1,000 telemedicine visits happened in the clinics in AISD schools, offering convenience to parents and students, as well as staff, that is second to none!

Immunization & Medication Forms

Immunizations Information
Texas Department of State Health Services information on immunization requirements


Medication Policy English/Spanish


Medication Form (Prescription and Over the Counter)
If you know your student will need medication (over the counter or prescription) during the school year, please understand that a new Medication Form will need to be filled out and signed by the parent every school year, and for any/all prescription medications a signature from the prescribing physician will also be needed, along with orders on how the medication is to be administered at school (Medication Name, Dose, Route, Time). Please see the attached Medication Form for more detailed instructions and guidelines per Aledo ISD. 

Medication Form


Asthma
As stated above, all prescription medications, including inhalers, require a Medication Form to be filled out and signed by both the parent and the prescribing physician. It is strongly recommended inhalers be kept in the school clinic so the school nurse can assess and assist the student in administering the inhaler as needed; however, in order for students to be able to self-carry their inhaler in their backpack, a separate form must be filled out and signed by the prescribing physician. Please email me and I will provide you with that form.
