@kmciltr1 A6: Call for independent NP practice in every state. Nurses and NPs provide safe, excellent care for their patients, whether facing a pandemic, disaster planning, or managing chronic illness. #HealthPolicy21#JHSON https://t.co/skbXNwsnPt
@kmciltr1 A6: Critical areas in current health policy nurses today should be involved with are: PPEs, Mental Health, and universal health care coverage that assures access to comprehensive nursing services and support full practice authority for all nurses. #HealthPolicy21#JHSON
@kmciltr1 A6 As Joe Biden said, “This has turned into a pandemic of the unvaccinated”. Nurses need to advocate and educate, now more than ever, on the consequences of not being vaccinated. This pandemic may never end! #HealthPolicy21#JHSON https://t.co/g2EKbirsVs
@AnesthesiaGreg@kmciltr1 This is great, Greg! Massachusetts just made the same mandate! All Hosptial employees need to be vaccinated! Boston Medical Center has 90% employees vaccinated, and are about to lose ~1100 employees! But I agree, nurses MUST be role models to the public! #JHSON#healthpolicy21
@kmciltr1 As a DNP student, I look towards the state policies of practice guidelines for nurse practitioners. There are currently only 24/50 states (25 to include DC) with full autonomy for nurse practitioners. #HealthPolicy21#JHSON@AANP_NEWS

@kmciltr1 A5 Being a NICU RN, the Texas abortion ban hits home. I see many infants with neonatal withdrawal syndrome, fatal congenital anomalies & babies born extremely premature. These numbers will only rise as moms have no choice & no voice! #HealthPolicy21#JHSON https://t.co/wJA0Fnt6zy
@kmciltr1 A4: Nurses can participate in advocacy at a local level by joining their state's nurses association and lobbying for issues they believe in. In New York, the NYSNA can help nurses advocate for themselves and their patients. #JHSON#HealthPolicy21 https://t.co/FkD7K2TgXF
@kmciltr1 A3: Nurses can interact with elected officials on social media platforms to amplify their messages. We can also educate patients through social media about candidates and ballot issues in upcoming elections. https://t.co/Kgc4csIJ6y #HealthPolicy21#JHSON
@kmciltr1 A1 Like many classmates are talking about, I was involved in Health Policy Day and supported the use of the FAAN act to politicians! Representing and speaking proudly for something I support was a great feeling! #JHSON#healthpolicy21
@kmciltr1 A1 I tend to participate using Instagram and talking in person! Instagram involves pictures and videos that can get your point across. I believe in the power of seeing something and also believe words can be misinterpreted! Actions speak louder than words! #HealthPolicy21#JHSON
