Who better to tell us how best to help Michigan nurses than Michigan nurses? #MHCinsight completed a short poll recently to learn more about the solutions nurses want to see. Learn more about our findings below. #TheBuzz #SolutionsNet

#NursingNews: Nurses in Michigan have reported an improvement in working conditions, and fewer expressed interest in leaving the profession. Still — abuse, planned departure rates, and unsafe working conditions remained at high levels, according to a new study. “Changes in Registered Nurse Employment Plans and Workplace Assessments,” published July 18 in JAMA Network Open, compared results of the 2022 and 2023 Michigan Nurses’ Study. Results in this study are, in some instances, representative of nurses nationally, as discovered through a review of previous Nursing CE Central coverage. 🔗: https://hubs.la/Q02J5lLl0

Do you have an idea for an inquiry project, but you aren’t sure where to start? All inquiry experts – including the members of the JHHS Inquiry Council - were beginners once. We asked them what they would say to nurses who lack the confidence to pursue inquiry work – here’s a tip from Dawn Hohl, Senior Director of Transitions and Patient Experience with Johns Hopkins Care at Home and member of the JHHS Inquiry Council: “Don’t be afraid of inquiry work – it builds on the foundation of the nursing process – you know the science.  Nurses are naturally inquisitive – how can we improve the care we deliver?  I wonder if others practicing in this area have researched this XXX?  Your inquiry questions probably could go on and on.  This is Nursing Inquiry.  To gain confidence, engage your leader or a mentor.  Let them know you are interested and want to learn more.  Like in our Safety World – Speak Up!  Select an area of interest and Start!  Ask for help and keep your leader and mentor involved!  Talk to others about your interest and your project!” #Nursing #BeCurious #BeConfident #JohnsHopkins

This article is behind a paywall, but it's remarkably timely and important. Nursing has an obligation, both to the medical community and (more importantly) our patients, to fix these issues in nursing education that we have allowed to culminate in a crisis. As a former NP student, I can attest to the poor standards and lack of rigor - these are the reasons that I decided to not pursue an APRN licensure. It's time for a real discussion among nurses about how best to reorient nursing education to improve outcomes and save lives. https://lnkd.in/gEvEgd_2

Did you know that With 45% of in-patient nurses report that they are likely to leave their roles in the next 6 months? Much of this stems from nurses having to complete duties that are non-clinical, and here at Morrison Healthcare, we want to alleviate this stress. Hear more from Aundrea Mills, our Chief Nursing Officer, on the plans Compass One Healthcare has to support nurses and lower burnout rates: https://bit.ly/3NYqjFG.

Today, many health systems are looking to advanced practice nurses to provide ongoing management and care for patients and to highly educated nursing leaders to manage the complexities of healthcare operations. One way for nurses to help fill this need is to earn a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree. But what exactly is a DNP, and what do they do – we have your questions covered in the latest Franklin blog: https://bit.ly/4a0th5W. #FranklinUniversity #DNP #OnlineDegree #DoctorofNursingPractice #NursingDegree

Nurses to ACEP: Pause ED accreditation program: Emergency department nurses are urging the American College of Emergency Physicians to delay the rollout of its ED accreditation program, arguing that the current framework primarily focuses on physician-driven quality standards and could potentially limit the role of nurses.  http://dlvr.it/T6zb1z
