SEPTEMBER 5, 2024
Most Nurse Practitioners are familiar with non-compete clauses.

The South Carolina state legislature has pumped $30 million into collegiate nursing programs over the past three years. It is anticipated that the Palmetto State has the seventh largest shortage of registered nurses in the nation which leaves one-in-five (20%) positions unfilled due to nurses retiring and current low staffing levels. An article published in Becker’s Hospital Review talked about the top ten states for R.N. shortages by 2036 of which South Carolina sits in the seventh position.

Today’s workforce includes multiple generations of employees all looking for something different from their benefits package.

SUDDEN INFANT Death Syndrome (SIDS) is the leading neonatal cause of death for infants between one month and one year old. Approximately 4,000 infants annually die from unknown causes in our country.

Background EVIDENCE COLLECTED DURING the pandemic suggests the newest generation of nurses are experiencing increasing mental health issues as well as a lack of resiliency compared to previous generations (Sherman, 2021).

NURSES IN MISSOURI must be able to assess a client’s ability to perform activities of daily living including preventative oral care (Registered Nursing.Org, 2024 ). The oral care plan should meet oral care standards and educate about various methods, safety measures, and the use of assistive devices to facilitate self-care hygiene.

A NURSE ACCIDENTALLY DISCOVERS a recording of himself giving patient care posted on the Facebook page of a patient’s family member. Another nurse receives a notice that a State Board of Nursing complaint has been filed against her for disparaging comments she made about a patient without knowing that the patient was recording her on his cellphone.

CLINICAL EXPERIENCE is an essential component of nursing education. However, it has been documented that clinical experience generates a significant amount of anxiety for nursing students (Walker & Verklan, 2016). Nursing students in a midwestern university’s baccalaureate nursing program have a mere 45 hours focused on long-term care during their first semester.

WHEN CONSIDERING FAMILY well-being and pregnancy risks, the March of Dimes notes “Where you live matters.” Disparities in maternal and neonatal outcomes have plagued this country for years.

Employee expectations around benefits and workplace support have evolved in step with the growing need for fertility and family-forming care. As HR professionals, it is our job to ensure employees have a comprehensive understanding of the benefits our organizations offer and how they can utilize them.
