Whether it's a call for legislative change, political messaging, professional correspondence, or social circles, strategic use of framing an idea is guaranteed to either enhance or distort the intended message for its intended audience #nurs638policy

Having the right stakeholders at the table of change is paramount to achieving buy-in and then ownership. Having a stake in a sought after outcome can enhance engagement, commitment, and team production! #LessonLearned #ItsAJourney @Nurs621

Mandating COVID-19 vaccinations for healthcare workers is occurring. Have healthcare workers been included as stakeholders? Stakeholders should represent the micro, meso and macro levels of decision making. @anccofficial @VDHgov #nurs638policy #VCUDNP2022

Caring for the patient with dementia requires compassion, empathy, patience, and competency of the needs for this special population. Training in care delivery is key for nursing staff and patient safety! @ANANursingWorld @AmerGeriatrics #NURS638policy

@KamalaHarris The disparities in abortion rates, politicization of the topic, and the result of not attending to the root cause of health inequality among minorities only perpetuates the worsening phenomena of health disparity #nurs638policy

Caring for veterans with dementia on acute care requires nursing provide competent and safe care. My DNP project will introduce a long term care non-pharmacologic program to nursing on acute care to decrease staff and/or patient injury and improve job satisfaction. #vcudnp

[RTomsGeriRN @RTomsGeriRN]

@NpTrauma Congratulations!!👏👏

[RTomsGeriRN @RTomsGeriRN]

Caring for patients with dementia transcends beyond the LTC setting. Introducing evidence based nonpharmacological interventions for this population in acute care will maximize patient centered care and evolve nursing practice!

Buy-in is second best to ownership! Preparing a team to succeed requires setting realistic goals and expecting shortfalls but the key is resilience. Top attributes to creating organizational culture @josephgrenny! #dnpscholar #Influencer
