@AudraRankin Becoming involved in local and state groups to prioritize change in the healthcare system is one step in the right direction to create positive health policy change. #NURSEPOLICY
@krapaopae92@AudraRankin This is an interesting perspective! Are herbal/traditional treatments every included in a plan of care to build a relationship with patients?
@AudraRankin High costs of medical care are huge a challenge in the USA. Depending on your insurance, many times insurance costs can cause patients to not seek care they need. #NURSEPOLICY
@JordanEtchison3@AudraRankin@UNCSON @RamathibodiN I agree with this! There is such a need for mental health support in both pediatrics and our healthcare system in general!
@AudraRankin@UNCSON @RamathibodiN Patient safety protocols such as newborn blood glucose protocols help provide equal, high-quality care every time in my current profession. Policies regarding safe nurse-patient ratios need to be addressed nationwide. #NURSEPOLICY
@AudraRankin@UNCSON @RamathibodiN Health policy is defined by standards set forth at the organizational, state, and/or federal level. Money is one of the biggest factors that affects health policy in the USA. #NURSEPOLICY
