School Nurse

 

Mrs. Canterbury

 

Hello, My name is Mrs. Helen Canterbury.  I have been a Registered Nurse for 24 years and this is my 4th hear as the School Nurse for ELES.  I consider this position a blessing and a privilege.  Caring for the student and staff brings me great joy and satisfaction.  Healthy Students = Happy Students.

I graduated from the University of Rio Grande in Rio Grande, Ohio and hale from Beckley, WV - Go Mountaineers!

I always knew I wanted to be a nurse. My grandmother was an Army Nurse in WWII and my mother was a hospital nurse practicing for 40 years.  When she would come home from work and take off her white nurse's cap and white shoes I would promptly put them on and play nurse.

Currently, I live in Salem with my husband, two sons, one Mom, one rotten cocker spaniel, two cats, and a miniature hamster named Gus.  There is no greater calling than to be in service to others.
