@KentforWV https://t.co/pzGGEOpWYj what can we do to make certain WV stays at the top (for once!) of healthiest states re harmful algae blooms?

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@JaimeAPRN @ty_the_np And both certainly report the schools who send students w/o the base to @AACNursing & @NONPF? W/the complexity of healthcare & chronicity of primary care, no amount of RN experience could prepare any RN for APRN role. None of us practices in isolation- even new physicians...

@NPsmustspeakup @MidlevelCare @AmerMedicalAssn @AANP_NEWS @PresidentAANP @ANANursingWorld @ANAPresident @djmasonrn Please enlighten us as to the programs of which you speak?! Certain @anccofficial @PresidentAANP who certify these APRNs and @AACNursing and @NONPF who set standards for APRN education would be most interested in that they could investigate these so called “degree mill” programs.

@drannamvaldez @ANANursingWorld @ANAEthics I wonder how many have formal DEI programs or committees in their workplaces?

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@MRogersRN @RobinCogan @NPR Terrible & totally unacceptable! Unfortunately this isn’t uncommon. A colleague of mine met a friend on the freeway to obtain an N-95 mask to use on Veteran home visits! She said she it felt like she was making a drug deal... #Shameful!!! @ANAPresident @PresidentAANP @USHVHA

@StephenNP Such measures also may shed light on specific opportunities for changing clinical microsystem processes, such as lowering the number of patients per nurse; increasing nursing surveillance; and improving safety culture, communication, and teamwork to promote early intervention.

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@StephenNP Reported on Hospital Compare. Not surprisingly - Hospital volume, communication failures, and lower nurse staffing have all been associated with higher failure-to-rescue rates, as have staffing models involving fewer Physician resources.

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@StephenNP And in older days had up to 50! NOT acceptable!!! Amazing still trying to solve staffing issues w/o data. From ARHQ psnet re failure to rescue: Software to calc Failure to Rescue Death rate among surg inpt w/serious tx conditions. Publicly reported by CMS. Ave nat’l rate of 13.9%

What a wonderful article highlighting history/crucial role school nurses play, especially during pandemic! To the elementary school nurse Miss Ford - you found scoliosis & taught me exercises, screened for vision problems & helped me get glasses, & had a quiet gentle manner we ❤️

@FELICIA10DREAMS @NYCMayorsOffice @NYCMayor @NYCSchools @NYCHealthSystem @RobinCogan @wvlegislature @djmasonrn @ANANursingWorld @ANAPresident Really?!

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@WVSchoolNurse current law, https://t.co/iNEwtrneVJ. Code § 18-5-22, requires each county Bd employ 1 school RN/1500 children kindergarten - 7th grd; each county 1 FTE school nurse. ~309 Certified RNs/277, 170 students/714 WV public schools 2016-17. WV needs more school nurses!

[Diana Mason @djmasonrn]

Excellent commentary & guidance on re-opening schools by @RobinCogan in @Newsweek #SchoolNurses #COVID19 #ReopeningSchools https://t.co/dRdRc1DUHS

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@Montalvo501 @artbylavinia The earth will be filled with Nurses!❤️

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@djmasonrn @LauranLHardin @JAMAHealthForum @JAMANetwork @camdenhealth Coming from the state w/population at most risk for CV-19 & still lacking broadband coverage, this certainly resonates w/our Nurses!

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

@djmasonrn Really powerful. Thank you for sharing.

[West Virginia Nurses 💙 @WVNPAC]

RIP fellow physicians & nurses.

[WeNurses 💙 @WeNurses]

This very sad image is made up of 198 doctors and nurses photos, known to have died from Coranavirus - thank you to all of them, our thoughts are with the many they have left behind.
Many of you have added a 💙 to your twitter name to remember them by. #covidsupportfornurses
