1. Dr. Campbell, what drew you to dedicating your research to population health? #NUR4108LC#M4W12
2. An interesting fact about Stark Law is that it flatly prohibits many financial relationships and does not require proof to induce a referral. #NUR4108#M4W12TL
There are many advancements made in fall-risk prevention thanks to the advancement of technology. For example, hospital beds that have built in bed alarms, chair alarms, and being able to have a sitter through a camera. #NUR4108#M4W11TL
As manager, I would speak to all of the nurses involved in order to get a comprehensive overview of the situation. From there, we can bring this up to hospital administration in order for policy to be clarified and potentially edited. #NUR4108#W8TL
I believe that a priority here is safe nurse to patient ratios, as I think it will impact my future practice. Through political involvement, nurses can bring the issue to the state government, whom can then enact a bill if found appropriate to. #NUR4108#W10TL
#NUR4108#W6#HB111#SB424 Both pending bills explore giving APRNs more autonomy in their clinical practice. Practicing autonomously allows for a positive advancement in healthcare, in both the team work between HCPs and extending accessibility to patients per texts
#NUR4108TL#W9 Nurses can advocate for education access at the local level by teaching CNA classes at their local high school through a technical program. This can expose students to career pathways they would’ve never considered before.
#NUR4108#W7#TL the stakeholders of my selected policy are nurses, providers such as doctors and physical therapists/occupational therapists as well as patients themselves.
The policy I chose is a UF Health Shands policy titled “Adult Fall Prevention Procedure and Guidelines”. It was originally updated in February of 2021 (Original approval date is unknown) and was Revised in February of 2023. #NUR4108TL#W5
The purpose of the tweet by AHRQ is to find ways to reduce medical errors in order to ensure patient safety. I think that this is an important aspect of nursing to survey in order to ensure a safer space for patients to receive care countrywide. #NUR4108TL#W4
Julie H. Carmalt, a member of the AUPHA Diversity with Inclusion Committee, is a professor at Cornell University and a yoga instructor and advisor! #NUR4108TL#W3
A policy in healthcare I am most interested in looking more into is accessibility to cheap and affordable healthcare, as many Americans ignore their health issues because they are more afraid of the bill than the consequences of their symptoms. #NUR4108#W1
My paper was about nursing burnout during the COVID-19 pandemic. This relates to patient-related care, as burnout leads to nursing shortages, and decrease in quality care of patients. I would advocate for better workplace environments for nurses to decrease this. #NUR3106#M4W11
I would post on social media sites such as Twitter. It can reach all nurses, some that can implement these changes. Providing nurses with reasonable, safe and tolerable working conditions is what I would advocate for to keep nurses and patients safe #NUR3601#M4W10
In my future clinical practice, I will make sure to delegate roles accurately and be confident in my practice as a leader, I will admit to my mistakes and allow myself to be held accountable, and responsible by providing open communication with patients and others #NUR3106#M4W9
The distractors are A and C. The answer i would choose is D, because care is different depending on the patient’s LOC, so it is important to know if the patient is conscious or not in order to deliver the safest and most appropriate level of care. #NUR3106#M3W8
One application that is commonly used is the EHR. If not careful, one could accidentally mistype their notes. This is dangerous for things such as dosages, as missing a decimal point can be dangerous. It is important to double check before submission. #NUR3106#M3W7
One giant challenge to effective communication within nursing is making sure that information is relayed correctly. Oftentimes, people can hear things wrong but not follow up on it. It is important that we follow up to make sure we are understood by the other. #NUR3106#M3W6
I decided to follow @NationalNurses because I believe that it is important that nurses fight for policy change to ensure that the workplace is a safe environment for both patients and nurses. I believe what they are fighting for is extremely important. #NUR3106#M2W5
