  5. How can nursing address and improve global healthcare needs?

    BBQvegan replied to IcanHealYou's topic in General Nursing

    Nurses do much more than be the initial face of health care. Nurses are there through the continuum of care. Doctors don't even get much one-on-one time with the patient. The main difference between...

  6. How can nursing address and improve global healthcare needs?

    BBQvegan replied to IcanHealYou's topic in General Nursing

    Huh? I don't understand your question. Who is hiring whom, and where and for what? When we talk about "collaboration" we mean doctors, nurses, researchers, government, reps from educational...

    BBQvegan replied to IcanHealYou's topic in General Nursing

    Another consideration: Nursing education teaches us that a "client" can be an individual, a family, or even a community. It seems to me that we can use the Nursing Process to assess and intervene on a...

    BBQvegan replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I don't see why health care has to be a privilege. As human beings, we should all be entitled to health care, education, and housing. Those are basic needs for survival. If you are sick and therefore...

    Sounds like you summed it up well! We should all be clear

  14. US Nurses Wishing to Work Overseas

    BBQvegan replied to suzanne4's topic in Nurse Registration

  19. Different roles for CNS's??? Come on guys share what you do!

    BBQvegan replied to traumaRUs's topic in Clinical Nurse Specialists, CNS

    This is a great thread. I want to specialize in some area of neuroscience. Would an NP or a CNS be the wiser option -- allowing me a lot of autonomy/flexibility/growth in this area?
