    Newborn Nursing Tips
    2008-07-14 23:06:42
    Nursing care for the newborn is a tedious and critical job especially for the first-child mother. I am here to offer you some tips about the newborn nursing.Breastfeeding should come first in our discussion on newborn nursing. Baby has to be given demand feed that means when the baby will be hungry you have to breastfeed the baby. Only after six weeks a baby needs timely feeding, the cycle should be 3-4 hours depending upon the weight of the baby.Breastfeeding session that is less than 10 minute or goes beyond 40 minutes indicate a problem either with the mother or the baby can’t such enough milk through the suckling process. If this problem persists, better to consult a neonatologist.If the baby sucks all the milk of one breast and still hungry, switch to the other, never switch in between so as to comfort yourself. It breaks the suckling process and baby stops feeding. After a feeding session and when the next feeding is due, start with the opposite breast. This is better as the co

    The Connection between Prescriptions and Nursing Homes
    2008-06-30 01:32:00
    Overmedication, Medical Errors and Medical System!Ramona Lamascola thought she was losing her 88-year-old mother to dementia. Instead, she was losing her to overmedication. The use of antipsychotic drugs to tamp down the agitation, combative behavior and outbursts of dementia patients has soared, especially in the elderly. Part of this increase can be traced to prescriptions in nursing homes. As with any medication, the prescribing of a medication is up to a physician. Many doctors say misuse of the drugs is widespread. And there's a lot of abuse going on in a lot of these places. Many physicians are absent without leave in the nursing home and don't take an active role in the assessment of the patient. Our health care system isn't set up to address the mental, emotional and behavioral problems of the elderly. Nursing homes are short staffed, and insurers do not generally pay for the attentive medical care and hands-on psychosocial therapy that advocates recommend. It is much easier t

    Medical testing board to introduce doctor of nursing certification
    2008-06-16 09:16:35
    Physicians are concerned that the move will lead to scope-of-practice expansions.Starting this fall, doctor of nursing practice graduates will be able to take a certification test that proponents say will set a national standard for DNPs and add to the profession's credibility. The voluntary test, being created by the National Board of Medical Examiners, is based on the medical licensing exam. It will be offered at a time of growing momentum in the DNP movement: About 200 nursing schools are expected to offer the two-year DNP degree by 2015 -- more than double the programs available today. Test proponents said the DNPs, called "doctor nurses" by some in the nursing profession, are comparable with primary care physicians in their diagnostic and disease-management skills. But physicians expressed concerns that DNPs will use the test as leverage to seek scope-of-practice expansions that cross into medical practice. "Why would they get a DNP unless they want to do things that are curre

    Dangers cited at Tennessee's nursing homes
    2008-06-14 06:15:37
    Sanctions being issued at unprecedented rate Associated Press Sunday, June 8, 2008 NASHVILLE - State inspections have uncovered an unprecedented number of dangerous living conditions at nursing homes during the past year. The crackdown comes after a May report from the Government Accountability Office found that Tennessee is one of nine states that most commonly failed to identify serious violations in a sampling of surveys from fiscal years 2002 to 2007. State inspectors in Tennessee missed deficiencies - deemed serious enough to cause "actual harm" or put patients in "immediate jeopardy" - 26.3 percent of the time, the report says. The most frequently missed violations involved poor quality of care, as with regard to ensuring proper nutrition and hydration and preventing pressure sores. A record 22 nursing homes in Tennessee had their admissions temporarily suspended in 2007 after unsafe conditions were found. That's compared with 10 in 2006 and six in 2005. The tre

    Eleven Prairie View A&M University nursing students were caught cheating on a comprehensive examination last month and were not allowed to graduate with their class, the university said.The students, who were using cell phones to text-message other students who had finished the exam, will be allowed to re-enroll this fall and will be required to take a course in ethics. They also must take the examination again. If they pass, they will be allowed to graduate in December."We never want to have any type of break in our university policies," said Betty Adams, dean of the nursing school. "We always take it as a matter of criticality when there is one. We have a protocol in the university and believe in due process. We handled this as we would any other matter on any other day."Other students noticed the cheating and reported it to faculty members who were present. An ensuing university investigation brought students before a student court."They did go through student hearings," said school

    I really hate it when I'm not doing anything and I just sit and do nothing because it's the perfect opportunity to re-examine one's life and I don't want to re-examine mine. But since I had no choice and had nothing better to do I looked at myself and where I am going to go now.I know that I want to be a nurse but there is something within me that says that I could be anything I want since I'm starting all over again. But I have already begun nursing and it's a waste if I'm just going to let go
