School nurses across the country face the difficult task of balancing official school and organizational policies with those issued individually by doctors when it comes to treating the allergic reactions suffered by students.  Studies have affirmed that these disparities in policies pose severe threats to students suffering from allergic reactions who may not be able to receive timely and life-saving medical treatment (Boyce et al., 2010; Carlisle et a., 2010; Fleischer et al., 2012; Nowak-Wegrzyn, 2012b).  The potential medical risks make it crucial for nurses to work with parents and doctors in order to provide students with the necessary medical care and attention in the event of a medical emergency (Wahl et al. 2015, 97).
