@clhubes We refer to all screaming and grumpy behavior as a “growth spurt”… Our kids have a lot of “growth spurts”. Whatever illusion helps us make it from wake up to bedtime 🫠
@keopu I really feel like we need a collective call to action to lower cost of living by 25-30%. We are so high, we have COL to give up. But that 25-30% would also decrease cost of business, making it affordable to be a child care provider. . . Or parent. . .
@InnovationRN Ooh! I’m interested! Did you develop a model or are you using one they already existed? We need residencies for LTC and home health and haven’t been able to land on a model that works for our state.
Let's give a big hand for #InternationalLeftHandersDay! I hope all of my fellow lefties have a terrific day. Me? I'll be spending today playing my favorite tunes on my left-handed banjo!
@rhysiare@_Boba_Fettish I just asked my son (5.5y) and he also said Red Hibiscus 🌺 . He eats them raw, which after consulting my mom (a botanist) and poison control, it seems to be fine 😅 but also I don’t recommend eating flowers unless you are certain they are edible.
As the pandemic makes us shine a light on all the areas that contribute to bottlenecks, I hope that this issue gets wind beneath it's wings. Underresourcing licensing divisions delays access to care. Progress will lead to short & longterm improvement.

Wish we could be in person with all our NP colleagues, but being together talking about progress, achievement and change is enough to fill my cup.
Loving the perspective @ptuckernp is giving us about our practice, post-pandemic
For those of you who would like to get a covid test, please visit https://t.co/1gzMf3uwuf for a list of testing sites. People should not go to the hospital emergency departments to get a covid test. Mahalo!
@DrJuliaHum@Momademia In the candid one I remind folks that even in the best of circumstances my 1 year old makes for a bad co-worker.
I also show me kids in every zoom so that there’s no pretending that I’m in a professional setting behind my pretty backdrop.
@DrJuliaHum@Momademia What’s your email? I have the discreet vacation reminder one and the candid internal email one. I’ll send both versions. It provided a huge amount of relief this week.
Passion for mental health care access has driven @QueensMedical's Bradley Kuo, DNP, to develop first-of-their-kind programs in Hawai'i. Because of his work, he was recently recognized with the 2021 @AANP_NEWS Hawai‘i State Award for Nurse Practitioner Excellence. Way to go! 👏
If you celebrate Thanksgiving, remember that farmworkers are behind the food you’ll be eating.
Thank a farmworker by calling your Senator and urge them to pass immigration relief.

@ecotraveler 5 year old has both shots scheduled & we offered photos to our Dr to promote with other families. We talked it over with my son and he’s on board and ready! I also breastfed our 1yo through all 3 of my shots so she has some coverage too.
@ayjaylauer@Momademia Richard Scarry or Nat Geo kids books (esp the ones where you can only read a sentence/pg and get away with it), bedtime 30 min to an hour before you think they need it (it works wonders!), saying you will check in on the in 5 (rarely do I)
