There are more than 385,000 Nurse Practitioners (NPs) in the United States and 70% (300,000+) practice within Primary Care. With average wait times to see a doctor now averaging more than 100 days, it is critical, now more than ever, that we explore and invest in real-time solutions that make primary care more accessible. Our health depends on it! Michigan should change the law and allow nurse practitioners to practice fully without physician supervision. Sen. Jeff Irwin (D-Ann Arbor) has introduced Senate Bill 279 to do so. It has a bipartisan group of co-sponsors including: The Michigan Health & Hospital Association, AARP Michigan, Michigan Primary Care Association, Authority Health, Michigan Association of Health Plans, Hope Network, Michigan Disability Rights Council, Michigan Nurses Association, American Nurses Association – Michigan, the Coalition of Nursing Organizations in Michigan (COMON), Michigan Council of Nurse Practitioners, MSU Health Care, and others. The State of Michigan is one of only 11 states severely restricting the practice of NPs. physician-led associations fight against changes to scope-of-practice restrictions. The American Medical Association notes that it has spent millions of dollars on radio ads, letter campaigns and advocacy grants. This protects a partial monopoly and financially benefits A.M.A. members. But the independent research shows this is bad for patients. - Research shows restrictions on the scope of practice of nurse practitioners is associated with lower wages, an increased likelihood of nurses relocating and worse health outcomes for some populations. - One study (https://perma.cc/JQ8E-QQRD) found that health insurers had to pay between 3% and 16% more for well-child visits in states with restrictive licensing laws for nurse practitioners. - It also found “no evidence that the changes in regulatory policy are reflected in outcomes that might be connected to the quality and safety of health services.” -A 2022 study (https://lnkd.in/eq-7hDZp) found that parents rated their children’s health better in states that allow nurse practitioners to practice independently.

New nurse jitters got real during a complex surgery! Everything was prepped, but, right before the start, bone debris was spotted on an instrument. As a new nurse, I would check my instruments carefully for bioburden on a checking station before bringing them to my field. After I had set up for a complex case with many unique loaner trays, the patient was brought into the room and anesthetized. Unfortunately, this was when I noticed bone debris in an instrument. My heart sank. I knew the right thing to do for patient safety was to notify the circulating nurse and surgeon, breakdown the sterile field, and set up again. I also knew this would delay the start of the case and, therefore, prolong the anesthesia time for the patient. I motioned the circulating nurse to come over and showed her what I had found. We calmly discussed next steps. Setting Up Again The circulating nurse, surgeon, charge nurse, and my peers who all came in to help us set up a new field were very supportive and encouraging – I had spoken up and caught contamination before it reached the patient. However, in that moment, all I could think was that I had done something wrong and, therefore, had ruined the case for the patient and the day for the surgeon. But I listened to the comments of “Good catch” and “Thank you for speaking up” from my peers and focused on transitioning to fixing the problem, rather than dwelling on it. The best thing I could do in the moment was to work to efficiently set up a new field. Protecting the Patient Because of this experience, I’m more confident about inspections and my ability to speak up for patient safety. Now, it is my turn to encourage other staff members to speak up and have confidence that they are doing the right thing and the best thing for their patients. Checking instruments before placing them on the sterile field is so important, as is speaking up if problems are found at any time, staying calm in the situation, and working together for a solution. Thanks to Leah Goldberg, BSN, RN, CNOR for sharing her story with The Stitch 🪡. Share your confidence-building stories with new nurses.

🚨Airway Emergency in Surgery🚨 An airway emergency can be a scary situation, but don't worry, we'll break it down into easy steps. First things first: Stay calm! You can't help the patient if you're panicking. Take a deep breath and focus on what needs to be done. Next, it's all about teamwork: • Get help: Call a code overhead to bring your team leader and other nurses into the OR. They can grab supplies, answer questions, or assist with compressions. • Grab the crash cart: This has essential life-saving equipment. Delegate this task if you can. • Grab the airway emergency cart: If your unit has one, grab it too (or delegate!). It should have a tracheostomy set and other supplies you might need. • While calling a code and grabbing the carts, the anesthesia team will likely start chest compressions and prepare medications while you get things ready. • Prepare for the possibility of an emergency tracheostomy. • Partake in the code by applying defibrillator pads, taking over a round of compressions, or timing and recording the compressions. Be prepared for a possible tracheostomy: This is a surgical procedure to create an opening in the windpipe to deliver oxygen. You won't be alone, but it's important to know where the supplies are. Save this post! It's a handy reference for those quick moments you need to remember the steps.

Experienced Healthcare Leader ⇨ Surgical Services Nursing Director | Legal Nurse Consultant | LGBTQ+ Medical & Dental Tourism Facilitator | Transforming organizations through evidence-based solutions|
Happy PeriAnesthesia Nurses Week! Surgery can be a significant event in a patient's life, often filled with apprehension and uncertainty. It's the compassion, expertise, and unwavering support of PeriAnesthesia nurses that transform this journey into a pathway marked by care and confidence. Before the surgery even begins, pre-operative nurses are the architects of patient preparation. They meticulously assess patients, ensuring that all necessary measures are in place for a safe and successful procedure. Their detailed explanations help demystify the surgical process, easing patients' fears and fostering an environment of trust and safety. The role of post-operative nurses is equally critical. As patients awaken from anesthesia, these nurses are the first reassuring presence they encounter. From pain management to monitoring for complications and providing guidance on the road to recovery, post-operative nurses are the steadfast guardians of patient well-being. PeriAnesthesia nurses navigate the complexities of patient care with grace, advocating for their patients at their most vulnerable moments. Their dedication ensures not just the success of surgical procedures, but also the holistic recovery of those entrusted to their care. Let's take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for these incredible professionals. To all the pre-operative and post-operative nurses out there, thank you for your extraordinary service. Your work is critical to the surgical experience, and your dedication does not go unnoticed. #PeriAnesthesiaNursesWeek #NursingExcellence #HealthcareHeroes #SurgicalCare #PatientAdvocacy

"...Who was the more reliable witness? Was it the provider of care? Or was it the patient? And after, you know, being in a litigation setting, we already have a lot of different types of feelings about the characters involved. And I think the beautiful thing about having videotape recordings, in this sense, is it gives you a sense of, hey, this is who this person is, to begin with, and look at, look at they're a good person, they're working as a provider, they're out there doing their best. And it changes the flavor of how you look at the provider. So kind of this informed consent plus part, having a video is not only a representation of what was said but it's also the reputation of your character." Dr. Brian Wilhelmi (Chair of Anesthesiology at St. Josephs Medical Center, Creighton University Medical School) Hop on the link www.themedicalmemory.com and listen to our podcast to learn more from Dr. Brian Wilhelmi. In our podcast, he discusses informed consent, recording consultations, and video documentation to help providers mitigate risk. #medicalmemory #app #nurses #nursesbelike #nursestudent #nursesdoitbetter #nurseinprogress #nursesunite #nursesrule #designprofession #nursetshirt #nursetshirts #hospitalnurse #nursesacrifices #nursesweek #medicalfrontliners #frontliners #nursehereos
