A diverse nursing workforce makes things better for patients as well as for staff. Nurses from different backgrounds can better advocate for their communities and teach peers about culturally competent care. Plus, patients often feel more comfortable with teams that reflect their own identities, leading to better outcomes and less health disparity.

Vickie Kinnee did not want to be admitted to the hospital. It was the summer of 2020, and she knew she needed treatment again for her congestive heart failure. She was having trouble breathing. But the last thing she wanted to do was be in a strange place away from her family while she recovered. Kinnee is not alone. According to recent studies, most Americans would prefer to receive care in their own homes. Advanced home care enables qualifying patients to receive care in their homes. Patients receive high-quality, 24/7 care from the comfort of their homes. Remote care teams monitor patients' vital signs. Nurse practitioners, nurses, and paramedics visit patients' homes or visit on an as-needed basis to provide in-person care. This new hospital-at-home model is a boon for chronic care patients. Does it have the potential to grow? What's your take on this? Tagging a few industry experts to get some insights. Shamit P.

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Make'da Traynum, a dedicated Nursing Policy Aide for the American Nurses Association - California. It was an enlightening conversation about the critical role #nurses play in shaping #health #policies and the significant impact they can make on #public #health and #patient #care. Make'da shared her valuable insights on various crucial topics, including the challenges and opportunities in tackling #fooddeserts in #SouthernCalifornia, the integration of #AIinnursing, and the importance of #nursesinvolvementinlegislativeprocesses. Her dedication to community health and her strategic approach to policy advocacy emphasize how integral nurses are to developing and reforming health policy. This discussion illuminated the issues and highlighted the implications of empowering nurses in #policyadvocacy. Make'da’s journey and her work are inspiring examples of how healthcare professionals can extend their impact from bedside care to broader policy changes. For more detailed insights from our conversation, check out my latest blog post: https://lnkd.in/gKn7tTb3. It's time to acknowledge and rally behind the pivotal role that nurses play in #healthcarepolicy. Let's take action to support their efforts! #Innovation #ANACalifornia #Healthcarepolicy

Purpose-Driven Nurse & Curriculum Creator | EdTech | Empowering Healthcare Education | Advocate for Nursing Excellence, Nurse Reimbursement, and Healthcare Policy Change
I talked to Corey Baldridge yesterday about his #nurse foot and nail care business. During the call, I noticed his passion and tenacity for providing stellar care to patients. I wanted to bottle up his energy to show the world what happens when nurses have the opportunity to lead. This got me thinking -- "What would #healthcare look like if it were nurse-led?" 1. Patient-Centered Care Would Thrive: Nurses understand patient needs best. They would ensure care decisions prioritize patient well-being and preferences. 2. Collaboration Would Be Key: Nurses are natural collaborators. We work seamlessly with interdisciplinary teams. Their leadership would foster teamwork, improve communication, and improve outcomes. 3. Prevention Would Become a Priority: Nurses are passionate about health promotion and disease prevention. A nurse-led model would focus on keeping people healthy, not just treating illness. 4. Innovate Would Accelerate: Nurses are natural innovators. They constantly seek new ways to improve processes and enhance #patient care. If they led healthcare, they would encourage a culture of #innovation, driving the adoption of new technologies and practices. 5. Equity Would Be Championed: Nurses #advocate for all patients, regardless of background or circumstances. Their leadership would prioritize a system where equity and reduced healthcare disparities would thrive. I want to be in a world where #nurses lead. #healthcareonlinkedin #nursesonlinkedin

Co-founder and CEO @ The National Nurse Practitioner Entrepreneur Network | Owner @ NP Business Consultants, LLC | Owner of NP Wellness Care, LLC | Doctorate of Nurse Practitioner
Melissa, You are spot on! The nursing model is what will save health care. We focus on function over cure, partnership vs transaction, and focus on the patient and their village to help attain their optimum level of wellness vs illness care. I often say the NP = New Paradigm will change the trajectory of health care delivery. Nurses and NPs lack business education to understand their value and worth. We need to get NPs to open practices to solve problems in the communities they serve. NNPEN provides the resources, education, and community to support these entrepreneurs by partnering, aligning, and advocating with those who understand the nursing model and "get" NPs. www.nnpen.org #NPsLead

🌟 Did you know? High turnover rates in healthcare have significant economic implications. According to studies, the cost of turnover for a bedside RN ranges from $36,000 to $57,000 per nurse, factoring in recruitment, training, and productivity losses. As non-nurse founders, we’ve grown acutely aware of these challenges. We understand by reducing turnover it saves resources while contributing to better patient care and lower healthcare costs for everyone. We want to support the economy of the nursing industry. WIth your help we can implement strategies to cultivate a stable and skilled nursing workforce, ultimately benefiting both providers and patients. If you are in the nursing industry then we would love to hear your opinion on the matter. Help us care for those who take care of us. #HealthcareEconomics #NursingRetention #PatientCare #HealthcareEfficiency #NursingFront

#NursingNews: Nurse staffing mandates aren’t created equal — and don’t even exist in some states. A new Health Affairs study analyzed how legislatures across the United States approach staffing ratios, finding differences from state to state, hospital to hospital, and, in some cases, unit to unit. Within the nursing community, opinions differ on whether staffing ratios should be implemented through legislative mandates or by “nurse-centered committees.” 🔗: https://hubs.la/Q02LBM7l0 #nursestaffratios #hosptialstaffing #staffing #legislation #nursetopatientratio
