Health Services
Your certified school nurse plays a crucial role in enhancing the educational process by improving the health and well-being of students.According to the Pennsylvania School Code, all students are entitled to health services provided by a certified school nurse. Our nurses are registered professionals with at least a bachelor's degree and certification from the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
Penn-Delco nurses bring extensive experience in health care, health education, school health, and community resources. They provide a range of services, including health screenings, medical and dental examinations, emergency care, medication administration, maintenance of health records, and monitoring of immunization compliance.

Upcoming Event
In-School Dental Program: February 7 at Northley Middle School
We are excited to partner with The Smile Program: My School Dentist to offer in-school dental care on February 7, 2025. Dental exams are required by Pennsylvania for students in grades K/1, 3, and 7. This program is available to students in these grades who have not provided proof of a dental exam within the past year. (Note: Any student needing a dental exam, regardless of grade, is welcome to participate.)
Students from all elementary schools will be bused to Northley for their exams. Parents/guardians are encouraged to attend and may transport their children if preferred.
