What was this "nurse" planning to do to help this girl without the use of an inhaler? This is unbelievable. Let's see- her boyfriend gave her immediate help and relief, and he's facing charges and suspension. If the nurse had held the girls hand while an ambulance tried to weave through traffic, get to the school, and reach the girl, and the girl died- while an inhaler that will save her life is mere feet away but in someone else's possession- the nurse, it seems, would have "done nothing wrong" in the eyes of the school board. What's next- if someone is choking in a school cafeteria and someone gives them the heimlich maneuver, will that person be charged with "assault"?

More likely they would be charged with practicing medicine without a license.
