@Charlot35863468 @CannabisFreedo1 @Find_Your_CALM Medial marihuana is legal in 36 states; however I'm wondering why it is not incorporated in health care institutions yet.

@LaurenPMHNPstu @ACLU_WV Also, Needles Exchange programs are also a great way to prevent endocarditis and sepsis seen in IV drug users #nurse638policy

@LaurenPMHNPstu @EricJTarr4WV I have not heard of exchange needle programs before. This a great program to prevent blood infections that lead to endocarditis that it is seen on IV drug users.

More than 27 millions of Americans with a mental disorder do not receive treatment (MHA). Plans need to be accountable for the Violation of the Mental Health Parity Addiction Equity Act. A provision to the Build Back B. Act is needed @MentalHealthAm @MarkWarner #nurs638policy

@Charlot35863468 Charlotte, this was an interesting read; I learned of the importance of the relationship between the different branches of government to be able to pass a bill, that it is beneficial for all stakeholders. #nurs638policy

@Yaa_Frimpongmaa @DrKimSue This book was one of my favorite reads; it is astonishing to learn that many of these incarcerated women do not receive the right treatment to treat their opioid use disorder(OUD), and instead, they are prohibited to obtain buprenorphine, the treatment for OUD. #nurs638policy

2020 Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP) presents information of patients’ prescribed narcotics consumption, and shares it with other providers to reduce the medications over-prescription and misuse. Very useful tool as a future nurse practitioner. #nurs638policy

[Rocio @ciovigg]

Health policy planning and implementation are important steps to create change and improve patients’ health and lives. Even though, the process takes time and effort, it creates regulations with the most up-to-date, evidence-based practices. @Nurs621 #nurs638policy

Los latinos en Virginia quieren a alguien que reduzca el costo de vida, se asegure de que tengamos comunidades seguras y proteja y defienda los derechos de los padres. @GlennYoungkin cumplirá, especialmente en la lucha por una educación de calidad para nuestros niños.

“As a mother who sees every day the challenges that students with disabilities face, the real unfairness in the system lies in politicians like McAuliffe denying vulnerable children their best chance to succeed in life.” - @MaryVought https://t.co/oHZe4zMO35

[Glenn Youngkin @GlennYoungkin]

Terry McAuliffe is now claiming he's being taken "out of context" -- can you believe this guy?

Here are 7 times he confirmed he thinks parents should have no say in their child's education. It's on tape!

@KidNPGinger @VaRuralHealth @VirginiaDBHDS Good point Ginger; there is already shortage of mental health professionals nationwide; practice restrictions further aggravate the issue. #nurs638policy #mentalhealthproject

@VCUSON2023 @VirginiaCHC @VirginiaDBHDS Mental health access for all; not only adults but children in Virginia are struggling to get the help they need #mentalhealthproject #nurs638policy

[Rocio @ciovigg]

@timkaine Many Virginians are struggling to get the mental health care they need. Virginia ranks 47th among all states in adults with a mental illness who reported they were not able to receive the treatment they needed (MHA, 2021) #nurs638policy #MentalHealthMatters

[Tim Kaine @timkaine]

Today is National Physician Suicide Awareness Day. Now more than ever before, it is so deeply important to acknowledge the incredible burdens placed on health care professionals and the profound trauma wrought by this ongoing pandemic.

@MarkWarner Physical health is as important as mental health. Virginia ranks 42, out of the 51 states, on ease access to mental health care in 2020; making the state one with the highest incidence of mental illnesses and low access to mental health care(MHA,2021) #nurs638policy #mentalhealth
