#SouthDakota State Nurses, Could This Happen To You? #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare:"If you have been the victim of a situation like Amanda’s we’d like to hear your story. It is a story that is being repeated with the “Kennedy Nurses” in New York, with the “Sunrise Nurses” in Nevada, previously with the “Winkler Nurses” in Texas.
In each of these cases, it is interesting to note where the nurses turned for support. These situations happen every day. We would like Nurseup.com to become a clearinghouse for nurses in these types of situations. We want to compile lists of organizations that can help nurses in these types of situations."

Sleep Apnea Monitor Turned off or Ignored By Nursing Staff, Patient's Coding Goes Unnoticed #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare

Sleep Apnea Monitor Turned off or Ignored By Nursing Staff, Patient's Coding Goes Unnoticed #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare:"Monitors and Monitored patients present special challenges to practicing nurses. Like a call bell, when alarms on a monitor are activated, they can signal benign or life-threatening events. In this case, a patient's monitors did not alarm as expected. The patient was in distress and would be found without respirations and pulseless by the nurse on duty.

Show Me How Much You Care, AzNA - Nurse Ratched’s Place, @motherjonesrn, #nurseup #amandatrujillo #nursefriendly:"There is a big discussion going on over at the Arizona Nurses Association’s Facebook page about the Amanda Trujillo case. Many of their members think that their organization has been unfairly depicted in social media and are voicing their displeasure. I’m all about public discourse, and I welcome the dialogue. It’s about time that nursing organizations are finally talking about this case.
Some additional details have come out about Amanda Trujillo’s case. To recap, Banner Del E. Webb Medical Center fired Amanda Trujillo after she educated a patient that was slated to begin pre-transplant testing the next day."

Security video shows struggle between RFK son, nurses – USATODAY #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare #crime

Andrew Lopez

Security video shows struggle between RFK son, nurses – USATODAY #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare #crime:"Security video obtained by WNBC-TV shows that the nurses stopped Kennedy from using an elevator, then tried to block him from using a stairwell.
The two sides disagree about what happened during the struggle. Kennedy said one of the nurses tried to snatch the child from his arms. The nurse, Cari Maleman Luciano, told police she was only trying to steady the “violent shaking” of the baby.
One nurse said Kennedy twisted her arm. Another said he kicked her in the pelvis. The security video shows a woman falling to the floor. Kennedy was eventually stopped from leaving the hospital by security officers."

Sealed "Rape Kit" Reopened By Nurse. Evidence Inadmissible? #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare #crime

Andrew Lopez

Sealed "Rape Kit" Reopened By Nurse. Evidence Inadmissible? #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare #crime:"Documentation of observations and findings are basic to nursing practice. Our practice is governed by standards of practice and "protocols" to be followed. In this case, a nurse admitting a rape victim collected and placed in a "rape kit" DNA samples, evidence to be submitted for laboratory analysis. The evidence submission protocol would inadvertently be broken by the nurse. The defense for the rapist would argue this breach made the evidence inadmissible."

Linda Leekley RN & Stacey Turnure RN, EmbracingCivility.com, #RNFMradio #nurseup #nursefriendly:"When two North Carolina nurses met, they knew they had several things in common. They were both passionate about nursing, had a knack for writing and were driven to inspire others to embrace lifelong learning.
They later discovered they had something else in common—something they were not talking about. They had both suffered the ill effects of incivility in the healthcare workplace. Why weren’t they talking about it? Because no one talks about it. It’s healthcare’s dirty little secret. No one wants to admit that a shameful culture of incivility infects most healthcare workplaces."
