The Stark Law is an interesting policy of interest because it plays an important role in restricting patients with Medicare and Medicaid insurance to be abused by physicians for personal gain. What is interesting is that it has a strict liability statue. #NUR4108 #W13 #TL

The use and disposal of narcotics can be tracked through the use of the EMS Narcotics Tracking System to manage inventory of narcotics is directly linked to the DEA. It helps ensure narcotic use compliance to help prevent drug diversion increase patient safety #NUR4108 #W11 #TL

Ask your members of congress to co-sponsor H.R. 2530/S.113, the nurse staffing standards for hospital patient safety and quality care! Hospitals should make it a priority for safe patient to nurse ratios as a standard in healthcare! #NUR4108 #W9 #TL

As a leader, my approach to solve Super Gator Healthcare from their current admission-discharge-transportation issue would to get feedback from the nurses and transport to establish rapport, then implement one unit with a change in respect to both departments #NUR4108#W7#TL

The policy I am most interested in is the use and disposal of narcotics in hospitals. Working in PACU I find that narcotic use/over use is prevalent and most of our patient population are not properly educated on the narcotic used and narcotic abuse can result. #NUR4108 #W1 #TL

My expectations for Nur4108 is to become more educated on how and why policy and procedures in healthcare come about, and the formalities of introducing and exercising policies and procedures as a standard in healthcare across all facets of healthcare #NUR4108
