You are the school nurse in your community. The teacher of the 6th grade class comes to you with concerns about the bullying that is occurring in her class directed toward one or two students. The bullying has expanded from the classroom to social media. Answer all of the following questions in your post:
- In addition to yourself, who should be involved in planning a school-wide program to decrease the incidence of bullying in the classroom?
- What evidence-based intervention(s) might the planning group employ to address this bullying problem?
- What are the potential physical and psychological health effects of bullying in the classroom and social media?
- How might the effectiveness of the intervention(s) you planned, be evaluated?
