Nurse Hegarty is our go-to-gal for all things medical! This school year, she has implemented "Nurse Rounds" where she brings her medical support to the classrooms, keeping students from needing to leave class to go see her (unless it's an emergency!). Nurse Hegarty is starting her 5th year at Ware Middle School. Before joining us, she was a Labor and Delivery nurse for over 20 years!
