Stroke: An Introduction, Maureen Sullivan RN, BSN, CEN, CDE, Pedagogy Medical:"An
online continuing education course for nurses, medical health care
professionals, and other interested individuals.
Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and the
leading cause of serious, long-term disability. Few conditions can occur
as rapidly and with as devastating consequences as stroke. Data from
the American Stroke Association (ASA) indicate that over 700,000 people
in the United States suffer a stroke each year. Immediate emergency
treatment is critical to surviving a stroke with the least amount of
damage to the brain and the ability to function. Every stroke or
transient ischemic attack must be treated as a life-threatening
emergency. Thus, it is important that all healthcare providers be
educated on the early identification of stroke symptoms, emergency care
options, and prevention of recurrent stroke."

Renee Thompson, DNP, RN, RT Connections, LLC, @RTConnections:"At
RTConnections, I educate, connect and inspire current and future
nurses. I started this company because I really believe that patients
deserve to be cared for by competent, compassionate nurses and that
nurses deserve to believe they make a difference. To make that happen I
offer keynote presentations that help nurses take ownership of their
practice; seminars and workshops to improve clinical and professional
practice; and consulting to help organizations create nurturing and
supportive work environments for employees and the patients they serve.
My area of expertise is in professional development, nurse-to-nurse
bullying, communication/collaboration, team building and academic
service partnerships."

Age Discrimination Takes Its Toll by Paula Span, January 12, 2012, 12:07 pm:"Raise your hand if you’ve felt that people treat you with less respect or courtesy than others, that they act as if you’re not smart, that you get poorer service in stores and restaurants than others — in short, if you’ve felt discriminated against because of age, gender, ethnicity, income, disability, appearance, even marital status. A startling proportion of older people report that they’ve experienced discrimination: 63 percent, in a study recently published in Research on Aging. The most commonly cited cause? “Thirty percent report being mistreated because of their age,” said the lead author Ye Luo, a Clemson University sociologist. Perceived discrimination because of gender, race or ancestry, disabilities or appearance followed in smaller proportion"
