Donald Berwick is the president emeritus of Institute for Healthcare Improvement and has set an example of being involved in transforming healthcare. This should be a priority for all of us, as we all are consumers of this great, complex industry. #N660rn
#N660 Rising health care costs make he lower cost of NP services appealing for consumers and organizations. Nurses have an opportunity to further their influence on patient care @ProfLacasse
The Nurse Practitioner Care Model would allow patients with multiple chronic conditions to have their care managed at lower costs, making healthcare more accessible for everyone. Hospitalizations are also less frequent with NP delivered care. #N660rn Module 4

@VetsCare I love that our veterans can find some help to coordinate healthcare resources. I know someone whose veterans healthcare benefits are still being processed - after more than a year from the time the application was turned in! Your service helps navigate the options. #N660rn

#N545rn opioid overdoses kill more people every year than breast cancer does. Less glaring, though not less sad, every 25 minutes a baby is born with drug addictions. How tragic! More has to be done. @Prof_JStein M4
#N545rn The overprescription of opioids has caused a massive crisis in the US, and we have yet to find a comprehensive solution to resolve the problem. Iβll be studying this issue to gain insight on what I can do to help. @Prof_JStein M2
#N545rn Intermountain Healthcare's CEO, @MarcHarrisonMD, is working alongside caregivers to decrease opioid abuse. I hope to be able to interview him for the policy project. I'm keeping my fingers crossed! @Prof_JStein M1
