Julianne Creed is the Nurse Manager & Seneca Intermediate School Nurse. She attended high school in the Smethport area, and earned her NY State Registered Nurse license from Jamestown Community College.  Prior, she spent 19 years at Bradford Regional Medical Center in Oncology, pediatrics, Telemetry, ER and CCU.  A school nurse is a role model, a student advocate, a band aid and ice supplier, a shoulder to lean on, and a great multi-tasker.  In her words "you must be able to stay calm, be an excellent listener, and the ability to care for every child as if they were your own."  Juli was inspired to leave the hospital setting and become a school nurse because she wanted a change in her life, and the opportunity to inspire and educate children.

Kim McLarney is the school nurse for the high school. She graduated from Jamestown Community College (Olean) with an A.A.S. Nursing degree in May 2017. I've always loved children and felt a strong desire to help people in any way possible. Asa school nurse, this gives me a tremendous opportunity to provide the best possible care and support to children within my community. My goal is to further my education, as well as obtain any certifications that will ensure I am current on all standards of nursing practices. I love being the nurse at the Salamanca High School. The interactions with children on a daily basis, provides we with an enormous sense of pride. There are no typical days and the fact that i have the ability to help children in a physical, mental, or emotional capacity makes my job very rewarding... If I was not a nurse, I would be a respiratory therapist. I have always been fascinated by the ever changing medical field. Within the medical field, you will never stop learning, no matter how long you are a nurse. I love that about my career.
