We understand how much nurses are struggling, and how the nurse burnout and turnover crisis is hurting nursing units. We want to help.    That's why we created our On-Demand Manager Training: Increase Nurse Retention and Prevent Nurse Burnout. Although nurse managers can't change the job's demanding nature, they can reduce burnout and turnover by supporting three critical work experiences of their staff: autonomy, mastery, and belonging.    We've already seen an 83% decrease in nurse burnout when nurse managers support these experiences.   Our Nurse Manager Training teaches nurse managers proven techniques and practical 'how to' strategies to alleviate burnout and promote greater well-being among their staff.   The training also provides 4.25 hours of nurse continuing education (CE) credit from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).   Check out the training: https://lnkd.in/gca3Bi27   Schedule your personal demo: https://lnkd.in/gRQNbqkm #nurseburnout #retention #managertraining

FIRST AID/ BLS / ACLS First Aid + Basic Life Support (BLS) + Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support ( ACLS) should be accredited into Nursing College Curriculum. Nurses are the first responders always whether it be Life threatening or a stable case. Some are running the rural / urban clinics. In an emergency, a Nurse can't stand there watching and waiting for a BLS/ACLS trained health professional to arrive. Saving a Life is every Health Workers Duty of Care....

What is a Nurse Practitioner? Nurse Practitioners (NPs), also known as Registered Nurses in the Extended Class, begin their nursing career as Registered Nurses and become NPs with an advanced graduate education degree (i.e. Masters degree) as well as additional nursing experience and exam requirements. They work independently but are most often found working as key members with an integrated health care team. Nurse Practitioners have the competence to provide comprehensive health assessment, to diagnose health/ illness conditions, and to treat and manage acute and chronic illness within a holistic model of care. At a time when there is a shortage of primary care providers, Nurse Practitioners present an opportunity for Government to close the many gaps in our health care system.

Have you been dodging your manager whenever they ask you to train a new nurse or nursing student? Do you have an interest in precepting, but you are questioning if you will be any good at it? Becoming a nurse preceptor may actually be a great move for your career. Nursing leaders are often assumed to be in charge of nurses, managers, and directors. However, nurse preceptors are nursing leaders as well. Some facilities offer a pay differential for nurses who act as preceptors. Nurse preceptors have a challenging job. Imagine working while teaching at the same time. While nursing instructors focus on teaching and staff nurses focus on patient care, a preceptor does both. The position deserves a great deal of recognition. https://hubs.la/Q02ffjT30

Nurse educators are crucial in addressing the global shortage of nurses. They support the transition from student to registered nurse, ensuring a highly-qualified nursing workforce. 📝 Navigating the transition: Moving from clinical practice to academia can be challenging. Universities must support novice nurse educators, helping them develop teaching styles and connect with students and colleagues. 🤝 Building supportive relationships: Collegial relationships and formal teaching courses can provide the support and motivation nurses need to thrive in an academic setting. 📚 Diverse roles and responsibilities: Nurse educators work in both clinical and academic settings, educating a range of learners from pre-registration to postgraduate and overseas nurses. 💡 Becoming a nurse educator: A combination of clinical experience, educational training, and a passion for teaching is essential. The role offers flexibility, autonomy, and the opportunity to influence the nursing profession. Learn more about the vital role of nurse educators and how to transition into this rewarding career.

Is the bedside the only place where nurses can thrive? While bedside nursing has been a cornerstone of my career, it’s important to recognize that nurses have a wide variety of settings to work in beyond the bedside. If you aren't already familiar with them, here are some other options to consider as a nurse: 🌹 Public health nursing 🌹 Digital health 🌹 Nurse educator 🌹 Nurse researcher 🌹 Nurse consultancy 🌹 Health policy nursing 🌹 Nurse informaticist 🌹 Nurse entrepreneur 🌹 Case management 🌹 Forensic nursing 🌹 Clinical nurse leader 🌹 Occupational health nurse 🌹 Legal nurse consultant 🌹Nurse health coach 🌹 Clinical research nurse, and so much more! As valuable as bedside nursing is and has been for me, it would be a misconception to believe that it is the only route nurses can take. This kind of thinking can keep people who have a passion for nursing (but not necessarily the bedside) away from pursuing a career here. Have you considered exploring any of these opportunities?

COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING My Experience as a community health nurse As a fresh graduate in a different environment where language is a barrier, I found myself doing what I love in this community. Getting into this community, I discovered that things were different from what am used to in the communities we visited as student nurses during our posting while in school. I discovered that apart from me being a volunteer nurse and other student nurses on posting [sometimes] there are just two nurses on the ward one is called the IN-CHARGE which is always around once in a while due to other duties and the other nurse is always in the family planning department. I discovered that every other person working there are community health worker, which is now referred to as NURSES. LIKE HOW? And every male worker is regarded as DOCTORS. How is that even possible? To my understanding nurses are meant to be the ones to diagnose a patient in the community when did it become the work of others aside from the doctors, why then do we have nursing diagnoses? Some of these workers are CHEW, Pharmacist, and Lab technicians. So because we all use scrub or white sometimes does not make our role in the hospitals or communities the same. I believe that the years spent in nursing school or any university are not or cannot be compared to anything. #nursesaregreat# #notallfemaleinwhitearenurses# #notallmaleinhospitalsaredoctors# #weareonebutnotthesame# #handsthatcare#

Standing at the crossing of knowledge and compassion, I find myself reflecting on the unique privilege of being a nurse educator for the medicine program at my community hospital. It's been exactly one year in this role! Every day, I watch individuals step into their nursing roles, armed with empathy, skill, and a relentless commitment to care. It's my role to guide and shape these raw talents into experienced nurses who will not only heal but also inspire. Life as a nurse educator isn't just about conveying medical and nursing knowledge or teaching clinical skills. It's about fostering a mindset of resilience and compassion. I see the light of understanding in their eyes when they comprehend a complex concept or the satisfaction when they master a new nursing skill. But more than that, I see their hearts grow as they learn to connect with patients, listen, and heal. In this role, every lesson taught and every question answered is a step towards better care for our patients. It's truly a ripple effect—each nurse I train carries forward the values and skills they've learned, influencing countless lives along the way. This is why I chose to become a nurse educator. Life as a nurse educator is a constant reminder of how vital my work is and how gratifying it is to be part of something greater than ourselves. #nurseeducator #acutecare #nursing #nurse #medicine
