The significance of quality nursing extends well beyond simple tasks like fluffing pillows and managing bedpans. For those questioning the impact, there’s evidence that having a sufficient number of well-educated nurses in acute care settings can significantly lower patient mortality rates. Furthermore, research indicates that skilled nurses can achieve health outcomes comparable to those of doctors for patients with various chronic conditions. It also shows that nurse-led care often surpasses medical care in enhancing patient satisfaction and adherence to treatment. Truly, NURSES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE! . . #nurses #nationalnursesmonth #nursesmakethedifference #nurseappreciation #nurselife #nursesweek #TurnMedical ____ Coster S, Watkins M, Norman U.

International Nurses Day 2024 theme announced! Our Nurses. Our Future. The economic power of care Geneva, Switzerland, 16 January 2024 ─ The economic power of care which creates healthy people and societies and drives healthy economies, will be highlighted by the International Council of Nurses (ICN) on International Nurses’ Day (IND) 2024 under the theme: Our Nurses. Our Future. The economic power of care. International Nurses Day (IND) is celebrated on 12 May each year and a theme is chosen by ICN – a federation of more than 130 national nursing associations around the world, representing the over 28 million nurses working worldwide. ICN President, Dr Pamela Cipriano explained the reasoning behind the chosen theme: “Despite being the backbone of health care, nursing often faces financial constraints and societal undervaluation. Continuing our overarching theme Our Nurses. Our Future. and the policy actions of the ICN Charter for Change, ICN has chosen to focus IND 2024 on the economic power of care with the aim to reshape perceptions and demonstrate how strategic investment in nursing can bring considerable economic and societal benefits. We believe now is the time for a shift in perspective. We have seen time and again how financial crises often lead to budgetary restrictions in health care, typically at the expense of nursing services. This reductionist approach overlooks the substantial and often underemphasized economic value that nursing contributes to health care and society as a whole. Policymakers, health care administrators, and even the general public are often unaware or misinformed about the return on investment that adequate funding in nursing can provide, especially in financially turbulent times such as these. Drawing from the lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic and recognizing the increasing threat to the health of populations around the world due to conflicts, the climate crisis and financial instability, we believe the time is right to advocate for a shift in perspective and policy.” A special IND report on the economic power of care will be released on 12 May 2024. In the meantime, we encourage nurses, governments, international organizations, influencers and the general public to help us promote the power of nursing by sharing and posting the IND logo, available here, using the hashtags #IND2024 and #OurNursesOurFuture *** Note to Editors The International Council of Nurses (ICN) is a federation of more than 130 national nurses associations representing the millions of nurses worldwide. Operated by nurses and leading nursing internationally, ICN works to ensure quality care for all and sound health policies globally.

Gillian Holtz, a Nurse Specialist in Wound Ostomy and Continence (NSWOC) and Clinical Nurse Specialist in Wound (CNS) at CMH, is delivering the second of six wound and ostomy* lessons to clinical staff huddles to improve their skills during ostomy care management for patients. This series uses a simulated patient ("Pat"), who has two ostomies, to demonstrate an ostomy pouch change, review tips and tricks for management, and answer any staff's questions. Once she has reached as many nurses as possible, Gillian will continue with other education series to keep skills sharp so nurses can better care for patients. #ourCMH #nurses #professionaldevelopment *Ostomy (medicine): an artificial opening in an organ of the body created during an operation such as a colostomy, ileostomy or gastrostomy; a stoma.

Let's talk about this! We have decades of work describing and measuring the contribution of nurses in the hospital setting. The industry has agreed upon major nursing sensitive indicators: HAPI, CAUTI, CLABSI, VAE, Falls with Injury. These measurements are intended to quantify the nurse's influence on quality care. What is your organization measuring in ambulatory care to describe and quantify the nurse's influence on quality care? Have you talked to your nurses about whether they feel like they have a direct influence on that metric? Are they using those metrics to drive their improvement projects? Do they even know this is the way their performance is being measured? We have work to do. What is the ambulatory care equivalent to CAUTIs and CLABSIs??? I now work in pediatric specialties: it's not screening for breast or colon CA; it's not HTN screening and follow up. Let's put our incredible minds together and come up with better measurements!!! #AAACN #JONA #AONL #NSIs #nurses #nurseleaders #ambulatorycareiswhereitsat

📖 The Thirteenth Edition of NANDA-I’s Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions and Classifications 2024-2026 is now available! In this new edition, we have provided a more in-depth discussion on diagnosis and its linkage to assessment, using Kamitsuru’s Tripartite Model of Nursing Practice to differentiate between interdependent interventions based on medical and organizational standards of care, and autonomous nursing interventions based on nursing standards of care. Functional Health Patterns are used as an assessment framework to guide nurses in collecting relevant data to drive accuracy in nursing diagnosis. Ontology, classification and taxonomy are described, and the axial structure of our diagnoses – which has seen significant revision – is explained in detail. An overview on all changes and revisions in the classification is provided, along with updated research priorities and future foci for the Diagnosis Development Committee and the NANDA-I Association.

I have three key messages: 1) Public Services Can Be Fixed 2) Together We Thrive 3) My Tools & Techniques Drive Management Genius (Fit to Care & Insight-Genie - halve meeting times & double impacts).
Breaking the Mold: Nurses as Professionals, Not Just 'Angels in Uniform' On Monday, I asked, do we need to break the mold of nurses being seen as “little angels” rather than HIGHLY skilled, essential team members? The results back to me this week through interviews are a resounding YES we do. The answers below are the possible solutions; however, the big one for me is getting nurses to work together to recognise their value and to get their voices heard. These are areas that I will be drilling into in more detail in the book. If you would like to be kept up to speed with the development of the book, please join the waiting list here: https://lnkd.in/edJ9PxnR (I am interviewing the NHS Wales Chief Nurse next week; it will be worth joining the waitlist to get the inside track on these interviews and get a chance to shape the book yourself.) Educational Campaigns: Develop educational campaigns highlighting the rigorous training and education required for nursing professionals. Public Awareness Programs: Launch public awareness programs to inform the community about the advanced nursing skills and critical decision-making required. Professional Development: Encourage nurses to pursue continuous professional development and specialisation in various fields, showcasing their commitment to ongoing learning. Collaboration with Healthcare Institutions: Foster collaboration between healthcare institutions and nursing organisations to emphasise and recognise the professional accomplishments of nurses. Advocacy for Policy Changes: Advocate for policies that recognise and support nurses' professional growth and development. Partnerships with Educational Institutions: Collaborate with nursing schools to ensure curricula emphasise the technical and critical thinking skills required. Professional Associations Involvement: Encourage active participation in professional nursing associations that promote the profession and dispel stereotypes. Thank you for your time.

Helping Executives Operationalize Workplace Violence Prevention. 🔸Healthcare Workforce Safety and Sustainability - Operational Efficiency and Quality Consultant | Keynote Speaker | Author | Recovering ICU Nurse |🔸
We are seeing this trickle down effect at the bedside. I think the solution will be redesigning the onboarding process and transition from school to the workforce. #nursing cohorts and new grad programs are great but novice nurses need to be supported as well. My niche is workplace violence training and coaching but I would say the majority of my training sessions end up with giving so much practical nursing advice. We cover how to organize your day and how to set yourself up for success. If hospitals invest in nurse designed programs like mine, for whatever issue they are trying to solve, the faster and more cost effective the ROI will be. For instance there is Susan B. Davis DNP, MSN, RN for Code Readiness and people dedicated to better ICU care. Its just about finding programs that work for your organization, not box checkers just to fill the need. #healthcareinnovation #nursesonlinkedin
Individuals who entered any nursing program during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) world pandemic were exposed to a chaotic learning environment. We conducted a study to describe the experience of 452 new graduate nurses (NGNs) who entered the profession between 2020 and 2022. The thematic analysis resulted in five themes: the pandemic was a significant disruptor, the program was a generally negative experience, the quality of the preceptors and mentors made a difference, the content of the program made an impact, and the residency program prepared NGNs for the RN role by building confidence and promoting relationship building and a sense of community. Considering reading and sharing the study below. Thank you to my colleagues LeAnn Ogilvie, MSN, MHA, RN, NE-BC, Cory Church, PhD, RN, NPD-BC, and Martha Grubaugh for completing this research with me. #nursing #covid19 #covid19research #healthcare #healthcareadministration #nursingleadership #nurseleaders #providence #providencenursinginstitute https://lnkd.in/gxGdpbnf
