A School Nurse's Guide to Migraine.

Migraine is a common neurologic disorder associated with considerable pain and disruption of daily function among school children. Given the impact of migraine on academics and social engagement, ensuring robust support in the school setting is vital to the well-being and development of students affected by migraine. School nurses have an active role in providing and coordinating care, acting as the critical link between care providers, families, and educators to promote health among students with migraine. We aim to equip school nurses and educational staff with practical tools for helping students manage migraine pain in the school setting. We suggest a comprehensive approach, including the use of medications, psychological and complementary interventions, and school accommodation plans, with a focus on both prevention and management.
