About

This algorithm describes how school nurses work with hospitals during emergencies at schools to help reunite children with their families. School nurses use student information systems to identify students and contact guardians. They support hospitals by sharing important information, helping with intake forms, and providing comfort to children. The process includes early notification of incidents, collecting patient details, verifying family relationships, and offering support services for students after the emergency.
