    Days after Hurricane Helene’s landfall, communities across the Southeast are reeling from the devastating impact. Roads are impassable, search and rescue operations are ongoing, severe flooding has wiped out towns, and millions are still without power. Nearly 1,400 disaster workers are working with partners to meet urgent needs as quickly as possible, with more responders on their way. • Over 45 emergency response vehicles are in affected communities, assessing damage and distributing meals, drinking water, and relief supplies where it’s safe to do so. • We are doing all we can to access impassable areas while keeping the safety of our volunteers in mind. Once it is safe to do so, additional teams will be deployed in other areas. • With partners, we’re opening and supporting longer-term shelters with robust services to support thousands of people who were forced to evacuate. • Volunteers in shelters are providing critical first aid, emotional support, and spiritual care. We will be there in the coming days and weeks to help families get through this difficult time. ❤️ #Helene

  • SCCM’s ICU Liberation Bundle is a toolkit to guide evidence-based sedation and mobility practices; it is often referred to as the ABCDEF bundle: https://aacn.me/3THMt1C Kali Dayton, a critical care nurse practitioner, explains how using these practices can reduce critical care nurses’ workload and lead to improved outcomes. Nurses must be supported to truly master the ABCDEF bundle, so they can also maintain the nurse-patient human connection and mitigate burnout.

  • "🎒📚 I am beyond grateful to everyone who contributed to our back-to-school drive! In just five weeks, thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, Shellcoast AACN raised approximately $700 in donations and collected a wonderful assortment of supplies! My fellow board members and I organized this initiative and we had the pleasure of meeting with Principal Katie Sandlin to deliver these supplies to Lake Trafford Elementary. A special thanks to our leaders Brenton Jenkins and Christopher Raphael MSN, RN, CCRN, NEA-BC for their incredible support and for helping to spread the word about our mission. Everyone’s support means the world to the students, and it was truly inspiring to see everyone come together like this. Let’s keep the momentum going and continue to make a positive impact. Thank you for making a difference! 🌟" - Cassandre Gousse, BSN, RN, CCRN, CVRN-BC via LinkedIn #Repost
