Any tips on how to get back into nursing after a 5 year break? Tips on how to get into remote work?

Meet Josh Vriends a registered nurse, #UAlbertaNursing graduate student, and one of the April 24 City Wide Nursing Rounds presenters. Josh, why did you choose to become a nurse? I chose to become a nurse because it combined my interests in science and understanding the human experience. Building relationships with and advocating for diverse patients and integrating this with life-long evidence-based learning makes for a very rewarding career. What was/is your nursing specialty? My nursing background is in emergency room and mental health and addictions, but I will be starting my career as a Nurse Practitioner (NP) in primary care this spring. Why is your research important for nurses in practice and, ultimately, for patients? My research is important for nurses and, ultimately, patients because it provides policy and practice considerations for accessible and useable telehealth for transgender and gender-diverse children and youth.

Nurses need to see examples of successful nursing businesses like these! There are so many opportunities, but we need more examples of transparent success stories!

Facing the reality that most new nurses don’t choose to enter geriatrics, skilled nursing and senior living leaders are both going back to the basics and seizing on innovation to grow their direct care staff and hang on to them. https://lnkd.in/dhQ57Qiq #healthcare #technology #healthcaretechnology #longtermcare

Attorneys may find themselves asking, "What kind of nurse expert do I need?" Looking at the inherent issue may assist. Pinpointing if it is department-specific or general nursing care is key. As a nurse expert, I opine on department-specific issues (specifically in the emergency department) as well as general nursing knowledge (fall prevention is a popular one, for example). Specialties may overlap, such as the standards of care seen in conscious sedation, a procedure that may be done in different departments such as emergency departments or surgical centers. Having an emergency nurse expert is helpful, because the emergency department is the door to the hospital. ED nurses do it all, sometimes simultaneously, so our breadth of knowledge is quite large. We care for urgent, non-urgent, critical, traumatic, psychiatric, and surgical patients from neonates to geriatrics. We are highly trained to assist with a plethora of procedures in the emergency department from vaginal examinations to esophagogastoduodenoscopies, and that variety can be effective as a nurse expert. So... any nurse expert can do it, then? 🤔 Publishing and/or speaking on general nursing care helps set the expert apart from other nurses. While any nurse expert may be able to opine on general nursing knowledge, check the CV of the experts in consideration for the case to see if they have publications or speaking engagements that exemplify their knowledge. 👨💻 Contact me today for my CV or to discuss where to see me speak at upcoming conferences this year. #nurse #expert #ernurse #emergencynurse #emergencydepartment #personalinjury #lawyer #attorney #medmal #litigationlaw #litigationlawyer #litigationattorney #personalinjurylawyer #medicalnegligence #law #lawyer #speaker #conference #attorney #wrongfuldeath #medicalexpert
