A question many nurses working in critical care ask themselves is whether or not to sit for the CCRN certification. I certainly did, and for me, the answer was yes. Before deciding if it is right for you, it is important to understand the value of a certification. Certification exams serve to demonstrate mastery in a field or specialty; both to one’s self and the rest of the world.

The current rage in art therapy models is the coloring book craze, particularly the adult coloring book market, which has exploded over the past couple of years with new titles. Some coloring books are marketed with 'art therapy' label suggesting coloring is a viable means to not only calm the mind, but offer therapeutic benefits as well.

Today’s workforce includes multiple generations of employees all looking for something different from their benefits package. While meeting these disparate needs can be challenging, a comprehensive fertility benefit can support everyone from junior staffers learning about their fertility health to senior leadership managing menopause and low testosterone symptoms.

When you are ready to take the boards to become a certified pediatric nurse practitioner there are a lot of details to consider including content, test preparation, and cost. Two governing boards offer the exam: the Pediatric Nursing Certification Board (PNCB) and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). Please note, if you are looking to become a pediatric nurse practitioner in an acute setting, only the PNCB offers that specific exam.

An estimated 1.1 billion women worldwide will have experienced menopause by 2025. Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, and anxiety can be incredibly disruptive — and last for years. But despite its massive impact, little is being done to support those going through menopause in the workplace. In a recent survey, 70% of respondents said they have considered changing their employment to better manage symptoms — perhaps because only 8% received significant support from their employer related to meno

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. Before educating employees, we first need to understand the rising healthcare costs and the financial burden of fertility care.

A correctional nurse is one of the most unique positions in healthcare. While most nurses may never envision a career behind bars, it’s a rewarding experience that can prepare them for a tough career in patient care. Each year, the number of individuals in America’s correctional facilities and prisons continue to grow. Just like any other citizen, these inmates have medical needs that must be met in a timely and professional manner.

As HR and total rewards professionals, we are often seeking opportunities to foster a better sense of community and belonging amongst employees - ensuring that all employees have an equitable opportunity to receive fertility treatments is one of the many ways this can be achieved. Fertility benefits make it possible for employees to access treatments like IVF.

Nursing is a lifelong learning process. One that you should be passionate about as the healthcare industry is a rapidly changing environment that affects how you care for your patients. One way for you to stay abreast on current practice and to improve your nursing skills and knowledge is to take continuing education (CE) courses. Continuing nursing education was created to give nurses the opportunity to learn and advance their own techniques in safe patient care.

Christmas rerun while I wait for my Christmas Eve Chinese food. It all started on Christmas night. It was pretty quiet; we were hanging out in the waiting room watching a very boring movie and chatting when I noticed that the ancient, chipped Nativity set on the small table next to me seemed somehow incomplete. "Hey", I said to nobody in particular, " did this Nativity come with a Baby Jesus?".

That last post was so I could add one more than last year. But I just wanted to add to my post of a couple of days ago in which my family member experienced the joys of the season in the ER. She has been admitted to the hospital and doing pretty well. The family looks to me to be critical, but she has been receiving excellent care. On the way in to the hospital a couple of days later to visit I encountered a locked door.

One of my favorite security guards accompanied me to my car. After being accosted in the parking lot late at night last year, the older guys always ask me if I want an escort. As I was parked in East Bum, I accepted. Steve was having a laugh at one of the nasty frequent flyer drunks. He was being his usual nasty, liquor-fueled courageous self, standing at the door of his room, making demands, hurling curses.
