Gwenn Dalton, RN, CEO/Educator: What Attracted You To The Field of Nursing? @HospiceHeroes #Nurseup #Hospice

Gwenn Dalton, RN, CEO/Educator: What Attracted You To The Field of Nursing?

In 1986 I attended nursing school as a way to support my 2 little boys following a divorce. Many years ago I was called to hospice and found out that I had an ability to connect with people that was very fulfilling and actually made a difference.

Well, I began to see this ability as a gift that I was given to help others. So, early in my hospice career I knew that I had a duty to bring comfort and care to those dealing with the end of life.

Every day, I am thankful that I have the honor and privilege of caring for the dying."

Gwenn Dalton, RN, CEO/Educator, Pro Hospice Solutions, LLC, Texas Nurse Entrepreneurs, Hospice Educators:"Pro Hospice Solutions, LLC understands that care is more than tending to the physical end of life; it is a way of caring for the patient, their family, and support group.

Congestive Heart Failure, CHF, Patty Hedrick, @PKHedrick @nursesonthenet #NursesonTheNet #nurseup

Congestive Heart Failure, CHF, Patty Hedrick, @PKHedrick #NursesonTheNet:"Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a condition that requires a lot of daily management. As a result, it impacts not only the
patient, but also family and friends. Without careful monitoring, your loved one can end up with scary symptoms that often result in hospitalization. On the other hand,
careful following of dietary restrictions and daily weight and blood pressure checks can nip these frightening flares in the bud.
Anyone living with or helping someone with CHF will find it is a big job. And it takes its toll. In addition to daily assistance, CHF is unpredictable. There are good days and

bad days. Your relative can tire easily and need to cancel even the most cherished plans. "Cabin fever" is common for both the patient and family members. So is depression."

Keith Carlson, RN, BSN, @nursekeith: What Attracted You To The Field of Nursing?

"I was a Certified Swedish Massage Practitioner and Certified Kripalu Yoga Instructor during my 20’s after leaving behind my studies in several schools of fine art. After some years in the holistic health field, I found that I wanted to be able to impact people’s health from the “inside” of the system rather than just the “outside.”

I had three aunts who were nurses---one who was a personal nurse to General Patton during World War II---and their stories of nursing and its importance made an impression on me from a very early age.

I always perceived nursing as a humble and important profession, and joining the ranks of nurses seemed like a perfect “fit” for me vis-à-vis fulfilling my goal of bringing improved health to as many people as possible over the course of my career. The holistic nursing model was a good match with my previous training in holistic health, and my ongoing goal has always been to bring that holism back to the forefront of nursing practice."

Keith Carlson, RN, BSN, Nurse Keith Coaching, New Mexico Nurse Entrepeneurs, Nurse Coaches:" Nurse Keith Coaching provides professional coaching services for nurses and nursing students. My services include health and wellness coaching, work-life balance, burnout prevention, burnout recovery, career coaching, and life coaching. The majority of my coaching sessions are conducted via telephone and Skype, although some face-to-face sessions are possible for clients living in Northern New Mexico. The development of workshops and webinars is currently in process."

Facing cuts, long-term unemployed brace for grim new year, Martha C. White, NBC News contributor #nurseup #unemployment #jobs

Facing cuts, long-term unemployed brace for grim new year, Martha C. White, NBC News contributor:"Nancy Shields is among the millions of unemployed Americans who are losing their extended unemployment benefits starting this month.

Many like Shields depend on these meager payments, a federal extension of state unemployment programs that expired Dec. 28, to stay afloat. After tapping out their savings, downsizing their living space, and draining their retirement funds, one-time managers and MBA grads worry over what this new year will bring."

Your Changing Role, Patty Hedrick, RN, @PKHedrick, North Star #ElderCare, #Nurseup #Caregivers

Your Changing Role, Patty Hedrick, RN, @PKHedrick, North Star Elder Care:"Many family members comment that caring for an aging parent feels like a "role reversal." They have become the parent and their parent is the child. There certainly may be similarities in terms of your parent's dependence upon you.

You are likely to run into problems, however, if you try to assume a parental role. Even persons with severe memory loss remember years of independence. They do not respond well to being shut out of decisions or told what to do. Like any adult, they want to be respected."
