S2E2: Empowering School Nurses Through Collaboration: Diabetes Care Done Right
Join Lisell Zúñiga, BSN, RN, PEL-CSN, on The School Nurse Huddle as she sits down with Aimee Hastings, MSN, RN, NCSN, CDCES, to explore how collaboration and professional development can transform diabetes care in schools.
Aimee, a school nurse with over 22 years of experience and a published NASN Journal author, shares her journey—from managing diabetes as a nurse to gaining firsthand insight as a parent of a child with type 1 diabetes. Together, Lisell and Aimee dive into a statewide initiative in Delaware that trained over 70% of school nurses in diabetes management, highlighting lessons in health equity, legal considerations, and empowering nurses as leaders in their schools.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
Aimee’s personal journey and what inspired her focus on diabetes care
The gaps in school-based diabetes training and how they were addressed
How collaboration with the Delaware DOE, Diabetes Coalition, and Lions Club funded a statewide training program
Key outcomes: improved nurse confidence, stronger advocacy, and measurable student success
Tips for school nurses seeking professional growth and leadership opportunities
The fun “What’s in Your Bag?” segment—discover Aimee’s must-have nurse essentials and surprising items
Whether you’re a school nurse, administrator, or advocate, this episode is packed with actionable insights, inspiration, and strategies to make a real difference in student health.
