M6 #N660rn @kathymb4 Nursing leadership requires many qualities. The most important quality for a leader to possess is integrity. This requires open and honest communication and feedback, and the ability to lead by example. Strong integrity inspires trust and commitment
M5 #N660rn @kathymb4 The future of nursing has exciting potential to improve patient outcomes. Implementing a continuum of case management from every nursing contact offers a way to bridge the gap that many patients suffer from in our current system. Nurses are the future.
M4 #N660rn @kathymb4 Healthcare delivery systems allow for prioritizing the specific needs of patient populations. There is a focus on patent centered care and self-care management through care coordination. Improving the quality of life for the patient is the ultimate goal.
@kathymb4 #N660rn M3 Care coordination improves outcomes for patients by bridging gaps in healthcare, giving patients the opportunity to understand their disease and learn self-care, and Providing patients with support, education, and information.
Professional networking allows streamline medical care and a way to improve standards in the medical field. It is important to be a part of a network, two heads are always better than one and connecting to other leaders in the industry improves healthcare. @kathymb4 #N660rn M2

#n541rn@Prof_JStein M6 Case management has the potential to reduce hospital readmission rates. Nurse leaders have a responsibility to assure all patients receive case management services upon discharge with proper discharge planning and post-discharge follow-up.
#N541rn @ProfJStein NM ranks 50 in the nation for teen pregnancy rates, and 46 for teen births. Factors such as poverty, rural living, and dropping out of school have contributed to this high rate. More education is needed. M5
#N541rn @ProfJStein Whooping the Cough! Don’t forget to get your TDaP between the 27th and 36th week of pregnancy. Give your baby the gift of antibodies against this horrible disease before birth! Dads, grandparents, aunts and uncles, you too! Let’s whoop this cough!
#N541rn@Prof_JStein M3 It is a fundamental nursing duty to advocate for our patients, to assure that every patient has a voice and is treated fairly. It is unthinkable what what can happen if nurses don’t stand up for those that might not have a voice themselves.
In order to reach patients, it is imperative that we consider the population- the age, the culture, behavior, attitude and literacy level. Only then can we increase the likelihood of healthy decisions. #N541rn@Prof_JStein M4
#N541rn@pcjefa@Prof_JStein M1 Vaccines, newborn screenings, and folic acid in foods have drastically improved the health of moms and babies in the US. Less NTDs, early intervention and prevention of disease have greatly improved outcomes for everyone!
