What to Expect From the Renal Denervation Procedure?Welcome to the Hypertension Resistant to Treatment Podcast! Initially, our goal was to empower individuals to effectively manage their blood pressure with the help of healthcare professionals. However, our focus has evolved to prioritize supporting healthcare providers, particularly nurse practitioners (NPs), recognizing their crucial role in patient outcomes. We emphasize the significance of equipping healthcare providers with the necessary tools and knowledge to successfully guide patients to obtain good blood pressure control. Thank you for joining us on this journey toward improved hypertension management. This podcast offers a mixture of informative and inspirational content.The Hypertension Resistant to Treatment podcast is hosted by Dr. Tonya Breaux-Shropshire, PhD, DNP, MPH, FNP-C.

Self-reflection is a key component of simulation debriefing that helps students describe their development of clinical judgment skills. Drs. Michelle Bussard and Lisa Jacobs asked students what they learned about themselves and what changes they plan to make to their nursing practice based on observation of their own performance during simulation in a video recording. Their qualitative study revealed findings about communication, body language, safety, and other AACN essential competencies that might have been overlooked in traditional methods of assessment in simulation. Learn more about how video-recorded simulations help students get the most out of debriefing after simulation in their article.

We recognize that humans have the right to access ways of eating that are consistent with our species, Homo sapien, and 3. With the acknowledgment that life requires a balance of right and wrong actions, we support farmers and hunters who do the most right by treating livestock and prey according to the highest ethical standards possible. My pinned tweet speaks to the way of the Reganarians. https://twitter.com/Regenarian/status...

Workplace Violence: The healthcare industry has risen to 10.4 per 10,000 workers since 2018 (AACN, 2021). Join me for a conversation with Registered Nurse, Brittany DiNatale about the violence against healthcare workers and understanding the issues surrounding this growing problem in the healthcare profession. Brittany defines workplace violence, steps to combat workplace violence including legislation, and where we go from here. We discuss the UTHSC CON's Management of Aggressive Patient Situations (MAPS) program to help give healthcare providers the tools needed to de-escalate potentially dangerous situations. More about Brittany DiNatale, BSN, RN:Britt DiNatale enjoys wearing many hats and has tried on several styles and colors over the years. Her largest identity is as a nurse, having worked in the ER for nearly a decade in the Washington, DC area. Prior to her nursing career, Britt wore the hat of a marketing and business development executive, supporting the explosive growth of a broadcast technology startup and traveling the world. Britt's quest for new skills and new challenges has most recently taken her to the American Nurses Association where she manages Project Firstline, a program empowering the healthcare workforce with core training to protect themselves, their family, their facility, and their community from infection threats.Another hat Britt enjoys wearing is as a Fellow in Health Policy and Media at the George Washington University School of Nursing's Center for Health Policy and Media Engagement. There she explores opportunities to use media to advance policy change around workplace violence. The thread running through all her recent work, projects, and writing is a passion to give the nursing workforce a voice, advocating for an improved work environment, and seeing nurses as change agents in needed healthcare transformation. You can find her at www.RNinDC.com or @RNinDC.When not sporting her professional hat collection, Britt wears that of a Mom to her wonderful daughter and has an old dusty musician hat she pulls out on rare occasions.Websites: https://thatshealthful.com/ https://www.aacn.org/blog/preventing-workplace-violence-in-healthcare https://www.nursingworld.org/practice-policy/work-environment/ https://www.nursingworld.org/practice-policy/work-environment/end-nurse- abuse/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RNinDC/ https://www.facebook.com/SilentNoMoreFoundationInc/ Twitter: @nowhealthful, @Lisa_APRN, @UTHSCnursing, https://twitter.com/RNinDC Instagram: @thatshealthful, @lbeasley0412, @uthscnursing, https://www.instagram.com/ourvoicenurses/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/uthsc-college-of-nursing- https://www.linkedin.com/in/brittany-dinatale-6528736/ Hashtags: #love, #UTHSC, #Nursing, #AANP, #TNA, #NPsLead, #EndNurseAbuse#workplaceviolence, #nurse, #nursesCall to action: -Report, report, report-Use The Joint Commission standards as a starting point-Get involved in associations/campaignsThe “That's Healthful” podcast is hosted by Dr. Lisa Beasley, a Family Nurse Practitioner, and faculty in the College of Nursing at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center.

This presentation will explore the implications of a large study of pandemic impact on nurses' perceptions of authentic nurse leadership (ANL) and healthy work environment (HWE). Pandemic impact was high at 7.8/10. ANL was supported as an essential standard of AACN's HWE model and was present for clinical nurses. HWE was present overall, but not for clinical nurses, a troublesome finding. Despite all, nurse leaders demonstrated ANL to “lead the troops” through the pandemic crisis.
Today I sit down with https://www.linkedin.com/in/marie-cockerham-07555899 (Marie Cockerham, MN, RN, CCRN), Support Specialist & Health Program Operations Specialist and https://constantino-shor.com/ (Cheri Constantino-Shor, MSN, RN, CMSRN,) CRNI Director of Professional Engagement and Nursing Excellence to talk about where we are with the pandemic right now as a healthcare community. Let me tell you, this was a validating and difficult conversation to have. We were *not* in a great place before the pandemic hit, so it is not surprising to learn about the toll it is taking on us. Per a study referenced in the interview, 75% - 77% of us are experiencing a clinical diagnosis of depression, anxiety, PTSD or insomnia. That is most of us! The way through is not an easy fix. It's time we are transparent about how we are doing when we consider re-building. Nursing is not the same as it was in 2019. So, we talk about what we can do as individuals and as healthcare leaders. Some of the work is personal and some of it is organizational. Both Marie and Cheri say utilizing the military's https://www.ptsd.va.gov/professional/treat/type/stress_first_aid.asp (Stress First Aid Model) is helpful. Staff truly need support in this time, so peer support programs are essential, as well as having authentic leadership as highlighted in the Healthy Work Environment by AACN. The emotional well-being of healthcare providers is a national top priority. If you are struggling, please know you are not alone. Here are some resources.

Dean Likes discusses how the Center for Community and Global Partnerships advances the profession of nursing, improves patient outcomes, and provides community support for some of the most vulnerable populations. The Center, led by Dr. Sara Day, focuses on initiatives such as professional development of nurses, the Management of Aggressive Patient Situations program (MAPS), the Sickle Cell Bootcamp, and more.

It’s now a way to … improve access to healthcare for people across all healthcare settings.” — Dr. Sophia Thomas “In educating the future of healthcare — whether that’s nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians, or other colleagues — [telehealth is] really going to have to be incorporated into the next generation of healthcare.” — Dr. Sophia Thomas “My career has gone from taking care of the patient to taking care of the nurse — and that’s where I find my joy and satisfaction.” — Vicki Good “I think [COVID-19] is going to become its own learning section … in a book … on how do you really handle a communicable disease spread in a rapid fashion? [And] what does that pandemic management look like?” — Vicki Good “I think the thing that benefited the profession in just healthcare overall is really looking at telehealth medicine in a totally different light.” — Vicki Good

No matter what position they hold, from floor nurse to administrator, all nurses are leaders, and all health care professionals have a responsibility to use their knowledge to impact change. Those are core beliefs of AACN president Dr. Deborah Trautman and ones she has lived out in her impactful career. From ER nurse to policy leader Dr. Trautman, who was a Robert Wood Johnson fellow in Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office during the development of the Affordable Care Act, has also seen firsthand the importance of sharing clinical expertise with policymakers. In this wide-ranging interview, Dr. Trautman speaks with Dr. Rishi Desai about the shift toward competency-based curriculum, the impact of COVID, the importance of mentorship, and why you can't divorce policy from politics.

She is Nurse Practitioner working in the ICU with over 13 years of experience in Critical Care. She also is a yoga instructor and has a new business called Seattle Beauty where she provides at holistic approach to the traditional medical spa.

As Des says, the point in talking about this is to lift the veil on some of what we as nurses experience so that our colleagues out there know that they are not alone. A lot of us have had walk into situations where we feel ill-prepared or struggle with what is happening. Yet, somehow we do it with grace and compassion. We both share experiences that were difficult and how it impacted us. I discuss a time when I felt profound moral distress and Des shares her experience transitioning a beautiful, young woman to comfort care.

Be sure to visit their website: https://www.aacnnursing.org/DNPAACN (2004) defines “practice” of a practice-focused degreeAACN definition of practice:The term practice, specifically nursing practice, as conceptualized in this document refers to any form of nursing intervention that influences health care outcomes for individuals or populations, including the direct care of individual patients, management of care for individuals and populations, administration of nursing and health care organizations, and the development and implementation of health policy. Preparation at the practice doctorate level includes advanced preparation in nursing, based on nursing science, and is at the highest level of nursing practice.Key Differences in DNP v PhDDNP | PhDPractice-Focused | Research-FocusedDesigned for Local Context | Designed for GeneralizabilityFinal Academic Product: DNP Project | Final Academic Product: DissertationWhen you earn the degree are you called “doctor” ?

In this episode we are talking about the overall idea of the DNP Project, the nutshell.Welcome to the DNP Project Podcast where we share tips, inspiration, and more! This episode is dedicated to outlining the main points of the DNP Project. Just in a nutshell what is it and how does it work?Start with the Problem:It always starts with a problem that impacts a patient population (directly or indirectly). We learned that in the previous episode. In your core DNP Courses like informatics, theory, policy as such, you are learning to explore healthcare problems for populations and systems through multiple lenses. You will not do the project alone. You will have a DNP Team (structure depends on your school) and you will have to partner with others (organizations, hospitals, systems, clinics, schools, community, etc). The problem you choose has to be a priority for the partner and something that you can reasonably complete on an academic schedule. Your faculty will be most instrumental in helping you work out feasibility. Ideas usually start big and then must get narrowed down. But, when you find the problem, that's the first step. The second step is to understand everything you can about that problem and its context. Why is it important? What is the gap? What needs to get done that isn't getting done?Examine What is Known:What have others done to solve this problem? Could it work for you? Students must also have skills and an ability to search the literature in a meaningful way, find, and appraise the literature. It will help drive you toward evidence-based solutions. Don't reinvent the wheel. Translate evidence-based solutions to your context.Implement & Evaluate:Here you need to use some theory and frameworks to guide you. Project design will also come into play. But, bottomline, you have to make a plan, get approval, do it, and then evaluate it. The evaluation should include both outcomes and process.Share with Others:As you complete the Project, you want to share with others what you found out. This will include the academic side, usually a paper, presentation, and maybe a poster or other means of dissemination. It should be tailored to share with organizational stakeholders and possibly the community or patient population at large. Each of these deliveries require rearranging information to meet the needs and interest of the audience.Bottomline, this is a LIVING PROCESS -- the problems of today will not be the same as futureSounds simple, right? To help you learn more, check out the DNP Project Workbook: A Step by Step Process for Success. Each element is talked about in more, but simple details and it gives you actionable steps that you can take throughout your DNP journey.

In this episode, we are going to review the recommendations from the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) on the minimum expectations of a DNP Project.Welcome to the DNP Project Podcast where we share tips, inspiration, and more! In today's episode, we are going to talk about the AACN (2015) minimum requirements of a DNP Project.In 2015, a white paper was written to clarify issues surrounding the DNP Project (AACN, 2015). It is often referred to by DNP Faculty as just, “The White Paper”. In the document, they tried to put language to some of the challenges that we are having.Key Points: (not full list, please read the entire paper: Clarification of terminologyDo not use “Capstone”; rather “DNP Project”Do not use “Committee”; rather “DNP Team”Clarification on the idea of “implementation” you have to do somethingClarification on group projects (another episode), can read more in our WorkbookClarification on “minimum” expectations of the projectAccording to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (2015), all DNP Projects at minimum, should: "Focus on a change that impacts healthcare outcomes either through direct or indirect care. Have a systems (micro-, meso-, or macro- level) or population/aggregate focus. Demonstrate implementation in the appropriate arena or area of practice. Include a plan for sustainability (e.g. financial, systems or political realities, not only theoretical abstractions). Include an evaluation of processes and/or outcomes (formative or summative). DNPProjects should be designed so that processes and/or outcomes will be evaluated to guide practice and policy. Clinical significance is as important in guiding practice as statistical significance is in evaluating research. Provide a foundation for future practice scholarship." In the next episode, we will take a deeper dive into what DNP “Clinical” or DNP “Experience” hours look like or what they can look like. You can also learn more about the DNP Project through our workbook, The DNP Project Workbook: A Step by Step Process for Success available from Springer at: https://www.springerpub.com/the-dnp-project-workbook-9780826174321.html*** Always follow the guidelines from YOUR DNP Program
Get the inside scoop of what it takes and exactly what it is like to be in CRNA school. We discuss the interview process, work/life balance, finding the right program, tips on amplifying your application, necessary experience, the importance of the GRE/certification in your field, what a shadow day consists of and what her first intubation was like. We then go into some of Shelbi's most important lessons of being an ICU nurse, her worst days, some of her best days and what it is like to treat someone that is in the dying process-a very important and tough clinical skill to learn. Student's ask questions in this info packed session! Shelbi earned her ADN from HACC in 2003 and then her BSN from California University of PA in 2016. She is certified as a CCRN and while working at Penn State Hershey was on the clinical ladder as a clinical ladder IV. Her first job was at Holy Spirit Hospital MICU from 2003-2006 and then worked for Hershey Med in the Neuro ICU from 2006-2019. She has served as a preceptor, charge nurse and was involved in several councils including quality of worklife, practice council and nursing professional practice council. She is also a former board member of the regional AACN Chapter, The Susquehanna Valley Chapter of the AACN. She is one of the best ICU nurses I have ever learned from and is one of the reasons I am so detailed oriented in my care. She is now a student (CRNA/DNP) at York College of PA.
This has been a busy summer as far as conferences go. I attended the American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology’s annual conference in early June and just returned from the Group Practice Owners Summit a few days ago. Both were in Chicago, though they were held in different areas of the city. I thought about going to APA in August for ...

Are you looking to take your experience on the show floor to a new level? Whether you are an association or trade show manager, IAEE-International for Exhibitions and Events-has the resources to boost your industry knowledge and enhance results for exhibitors, associations and attendees. In this second interview with Randy Bauler,CEM and Corporate Relations & Exhibits Director at American Association of Critical-Care Nurses(AACN),we discuss how beneficial IAEE is and ways you can get involved. IAEE has been around since 1928 when it was the National Association of Exposition Managers when it represented “the interests of trade show and exposition managers, the International Association of Exhibitions and Events® is the leading association for the global exhibition industry. Today IAEE represents over 12,000 individuals in 50 countries who conduct and support exhibitions around the world.” Whether you are an association or exhibitor, Randy shares key insights in this interview. 5 Ways to Get Involved with IAEE: Join a local chapter. Members have the opportunity to network, socialize and learn about the industry. Get Your CEM. If you’re an association, exhibitor or industry partner, IAEE offers great courses that will help you. There are twelve modules and candidates need to complete 9 to receive the CEM. Take a backstage tour. Local chapters offer an insider view behind the scenes at conference centers around the country. Whether you are a veteran or new to the industry this is a unique opportunity to learn more about how events happen. Take a Course.If getting your CEM isn’t for you, take one or two courses. Randy describes his course Exhibition and Event Sales where you will learn: Attendance marketing, contractor/supplier relationship programs. Specialty exhibit sales Tactics-to get people sign up for a show Help advance space selection General selling techniques Overcome objections Put together sales plan Basics of selling Specifics-how do you put together an exhibitor prospectus, whatever selling opportunities do you sell Attend Expo ExpoDecember 3-5, 2019 in Las Vegas.It is an opportunity to network, take CEM and more at the national level. Favorite Resource: Randy shares in addition to HCEA (Healthcare Convention and Exhibitor’s Association) and IAEE, he recommendsCEIR-Center for Exhibition Industry Research, which is part of IAEE and is a tremendous resource for data.

Have you been wanting to maximize your results with a trade show association or if you are an association do you want to help your exhibitors get better ROI by exhibiting at your show? In this interview, Randy Bauler,CEM and Corporate Relations & Exhibits Director at American Association of Critical-Care Nurses(AACN) shares advice about how to take your events to the next level in exposition education, booth space selection, sponsorship and how you can join an exhibitor advisory council (EAC). Exposition Education:Opportunity to provide CE credit to attendees in a theater setting. AACN offers 51 theaters, 200 topics that are presented 650 times over the course of the show. Exhibitors that include KOL’s (Key Opinion Leaders) to present content generate the best Conferences that offer CE credits on the show floor like AACN provide the opportunity for attendees to stay current (in the case of AACN, nurses can put CE credits towards renewing their licenses. Attendees want to learn and get education along with hands-on applications. Associations that offer CE credits on the show floor provide exhibitors a way to draw attendees to their exhibit and interact with them in a “non” sales format. Healthcare conferences for nurses enable attendees to become educated on the show floor and take the knowledge back to their hospitals and share it with other nurses. Selecting an Exhibit Space:You can often select next year’s space while at the show. Evaluate opportunities and consider a position near learning centers or special sponsored areas like the Rest and Relaxation area at AACN. How you bring traffic to your exhibit is more important than focusing on selecting a strategic location. Associations get attendees to the show-what do you do to drive traffic to your booth? Priority Point System is based on an accumulation of key criteria. Exhibitors earn points based on the size of the booth (1 point for every 100 feet of space at AACN). In addition, history/loyalty points matter. Points for advertising/sponsorship, year-round support also play a part. AACN also offers points if you stay in their housing block. Sponsorship opportunities:You have the ability to explore options outside of what is offered. Customize a sponsorship to achieve greater exposure to the attendee. Most exhibitors say “let me see your list of opportunities- what can we do to customize” and work with the association to develop the best offering. Engagement with attendee is more important than exposure. An example Randy shared is that while nurses are waiting for their seated message at the Rest and Relaxation lounge, the sponsoring company has greeters to interact with attendees, getting to know them and work the line before the nurse gets their message. Receptions offer an additional opportunity to interact and engage with attendees and the host company is encouraged to mingle and make connections. At AACN, a sponsoring company is able to have senior management speak for a few moments. Products can be on display at a sponsored reception giving companies a second opportunity to engage with attendees. Ways to Get Involved with Associations: Join an Advisory Council. Most shows have an exhibitor advisory council or committee-they invite representatives to talk about the event. Being on the EAC (Exhibitor Advisory Council) gives companies the chance to increase visibility in the industry and gain recognition. At AACN the only purpose is to make the experience better for exhibitors and attendees. Favorite Resource:HCEA-Healthcare Convention and Exhibitor’s Association. In healthcare it is a unique organization that includes exhibitors, show management and suppliers together. The HCEA events enable attendees to meet with peers, customers, potential customers and suppliers to the industry.

Episode 11: "There are no boundaries to the human condition." A personal history in nursing - Linda Sorensen, RN Patient names have been "bleeped" in order to protect patient privacy in accordance with HIPPA. Show Notes (helpful to non-clinical listeners!) LVN – Licensed Vocational Nurse, a different type of nursing license still offered by many states, also called LPN in some parts of the country. This type of license is not as liberal as RN licenses, i.e. LVNs cannot perform some skills like blood product administration (varies by state) “step up program” – once RN licensure became the norm many educational programs were created to allow LVNs and LPNs bridge to RN licensure CNA – Certified Nursing Assistant, or a “nurse’s aide” – many nurses have practiced as CNAs and aides prior to becoming fully licensed nurses “Float” nurse – nurses that work typically in different hospital units rather than just the same one all the time “CCRN” – Critical Care Certified Registered Nurse – a national certification offered by the AACN to recognize expertise in critical care. Not many nurses around have had this distinction for as long as Linda has. Hospital administrations are just now starting to offer bonuses and pay differential to nurses with this certification. “Swan” – a piece of medical equipment inserted through a large vein and threaded into the heart’s pulmonary artery. Also called a pulmonary artery catheter, it allows clinicians to measure advanced hemodynamics and diagnose heart failure. First used in 1970 and we still use Swan-Ganz catheters today. “ICP drain” – intracranial pressure drain; much like the Swan-Ganz, it is a diagnostic as well as a therapeutic tool inserted into the skull to relieve cerebral swelling and measure pressures “precepted” – “Precepting” is a term used by nurses to identify the training of new nurses and newly hired nurses mariemacmillan.com macmillanpages@gmail.com Podcast feedback line: 503-512-0185
