Nursing home staff can now assist with booster shots, according to the White House

The White House said that facility employees can now administer shots in an effort to combat the low uptake of the most recent COVID-19 omicron booster shots in US nursing homes. This is a significant victory for many, according to one of the top caregiver activists in the country. According to Katie Smith Sloan, president and CEO of LeadingAge, the announcement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention "is truly a positive step, and a demonstration of the good that results when government and providers collaborate to reach a shared goal: keeping older adults, professional caregivers, and communities safe." Smith promised to keep working with and exerting pressure on the CDC, the Department of Health & Human Services, and the White House "to remove impediments," as suggested by providers in their proposal for the All-Hands-On-Deck campaign to improve booster uptake. As a tripledemic approached the nation in November, LeadingAge and the American Health ...

10 Ways to Find the Self-Confidence of a Successful Legal Nurse Consultant The medical field was not built to accommodate the nurse. The role of nurses has always been one where a level of submission is required. Nurses must follow orders from doctors and other nurses. Doctors sometimes do not appreciate nurses and nurses often fight amongst themselves for dominance. This negative aspect of the medical working atmosphere forces many nurses into a shell where they are content with taking orders. They become used to absorbing any mistreatment that they endure, and accepting it as their reality. Bottling up this negativity usually leads a nurse to become so fed up that they no longer want anything to do with nursing. This is where redirecting their careers into Legal Nurse Consulting becomes a great solution. Once a nurse decides that they are ready to become a Legal Nurse Consultant, they choose a course, complete the training, and feel like they are ready to get started, but the...

Common Legal Nurse Misconceptions The unfortunate truth of Legal Nurse Consulting is that most Nurses who complete a course or certification never get their first case. It is not a problem of demand or market saturation. It is because most Legal Nurse courses and certifications fail to provide Nurses with the proper training and support they need to make the transition. If the Legal Nurse curriculum is outdated, then they most likely won’t find success in this industry. Unfortunately, this is a problem among many courses, including those that stand behind an accreditation or have been around for a very long time.  1. Accreditations are Irrelevant for Legal Nurse Consulting You will not become successful as a Legal nurse because the course you took was accredited. Accreditations are totally unrelated to the quality of standards and training included in the Legal Nurse course . An accreditation simply sets some general standards for training and testing. They are unrelated t...

Nurses Deserve Better, Now They Can Get It Our healthcare system is working Nurses to death, and is not doing much to improve the situation. A recent survey by Career Builder reports that 70% of Nurses feel burned out in their current job, and 54% rank their stress level as high. While many say that burn-out comes with the territory, much of it can be avoided with some help from administrators and facilities. Their desire to cut costs adds unnecessary pressure on Nurses, making room for medical errors and decreased quality of care. Our healthcare system has now become one that wears down Nurses faster than ever, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to improve anytime soon. Isn’t it unfair that Nurses are forced take on this extra burden? Isn’t it disappointing that most Nurses choose this career to help people, but are instead forced to offer lower quality of care to their patients because they are overworked? Nurses deserve better than this. Luckily, they now have options. C...
