A report by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing indicates that minority nurses make up only 19% of the workforce, highlighting a significant diversity gap. Lack of diversity in nursing can lead to health disparities and a lack of cultural competence in patient care. Solution: Implement recruitment and retention strategies, provide scholarships for minority students, and integrate cultural competence training into curricula. By fostering a diverse nursing workforce, we can improve care for all patients. Dr. Sellars Educate #DiversityInNursing #InclusiveEducation #CulturalCompetence #NursingLeadership #nursingeducation

Explore our latest study titled "School Nurses and Chronic Absenteeism in Schools: A Qualitative Study" on chronic absenteeism, focusing on differences between partial- and full-day absences. We analyzed qualitative data from six focus groups with 21 Midwestern school nurses, revealing four key themes: 1. Absenteeism at the family-health 2. Absenteeism at the family-school 3. Absenteeism at the family-ecological systems 4. School nurse roles in supporting chronically absent students The findings emphasize the vital role of school nurses in identifying at-risk students and intervening before chronic absenteeism becomes habitual.

This was a thought provoking episode of the #amplifiedRN news show with Jared Fesler. We definitely need a multi-pronged approach to addressing our current nursing pipeline challenges. Discussing these hurdles generates awareness, and allows us to find creative solutions that will address both the local and national healthcare landscape. One idea in motion: In September of last year “U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) and U.S. Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) introduced bipartisan legislation to address the pay gap between clinical and faculty nursing positions—which is the primary economic disincentive fueling the nursing shortage crisis across the country. The Nurse Faculty Shortage Reduction Act is a bipartisan bill that would provide a federal wage differential for the salary gap between clinical nursing and nurse faculty roles—to help fill desperately needed nurse faculty positions across the country. This program would operate alongside the Health Resources and Services Administration’s (HRSA) existing Nurse Faculty Loan Repayment Program (NFLP), to address a given nursing school or program’s needs.” (https://lnkd.in/gxp5G2yp) #nurseadvocate #creativesolutions #sittingatthetable with American Nurses Association - California 💪🏼

This unfunded minimum staffing mandate will destroy the US Post Acute infrastructure and our care profession as we know it for years to come, particularly for rural centers. Several states and providers have been closing down facilities in these rural areas due to inability to adequately staff these care centers. Clinical professionals (CNA, LVN, RN) pathway infrastructure is the first step. Front end investment, earlier and with urgency. The heavy stick instead of the inviting carrot seems to be the preferred method used on providers to come up with a solution. Well. It won't matter how much you catch us with that switch; Providers can't move states to use their education systems to prepare a workforce any quicker. Until the each state on concert with CMS understands the continuing and exponentially growing gap between service needs and workforce adequacy, we are lurching towards a dangerous precipice. A new law demanding it, does not make it so. We can be the change, we must be heard!

"You can create a mandate to create more nurses, it doesn't mean – we can write a law that says there'll be 75,000 more nurses, it will not create 75,000 more nurses. It's just not how laws work," Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) states during the U.S. House Energy & Commerce Subcommittee on Health hearing. 🎥Listen to the rest of Rep. Crenshaw's statement:

Bridging gaps in such profound ways!
UM St. Joseph was featured in this The Baltimore Sun article about our innovative partnership with Baltimore County and Community College of Baltimore County designed to provide workforce training to economically disadvantaged residents while helping to address a national nursing shortage. Our Public Health Pathways Program is building and sustaining a skilled and dedicated team of nurses. https://lnkd.in/eH8EQkup
A hospital needed nurses. Baltimore County wanted more good jobs. This program helps both.

Robert Wood Johnson Medical School Deans ask medical students to 'volunteer' for 5 hour shifts during nursing strke. Let that sink in . . . Medical students or Drs are not nurses; not the same skill set, not the same training(duh). Do they have a license to act as nurses, do they need one, what is their liability? Where's their insurance? Is it ethical for med school deans to request students to 'volunteer', are structures in place to protect students from retaliation if they don't? Will the time come out of their clinical rotation, didactics or free time; last I checked the latter was in short supply, if it's coming from their clinical time, what is the quality of education they're receiving working as nurses? As they will be perceived (correctly) as (forced) strike breakers what are the expectations of collegial culture between nurses and these soon to be doctors? I'm sure it's all been carefully thought out, probably JCAHO approved to boot. I just think administrative incompetence or greed shouldn't be turfed on patients' wellbeing, or students for that matter . . .

Primary health care faces significant workforce challenges, particularly in care for vulnerable populations and in underserved areas. The University of New Hampshire (UNH) Advanced Nursing Education Workforce (ANEW) program worked to increase the supply of primary care providers by developing innovative pathways to support registered nurses in becoming primary care nurse practitioners (NPs) with a participant commitment to serve a postgraduate period working in primary care in underserved areas. The ANEW program also used data from the NH Comprehensive Health Information System (NHCHIS), NH’s all-payer claims database, to examine primary care provision in the state and identify primary care provider types and settings.

Resources are limited...if you force mandates, it will strip resources from somewhere else to fulfil it. We need LESS MANDATES, LESS REGULATION and more incentives for high powered nurses to enter this field. Right now, what incentives are there other than altruism? Congress, let's learn about what motivates change versus what stifles it.
"You can create a mandate to create more nurses, it doesn't mean – we can write a law that says there'll be 75,000 more nurses, it will not create 75,000 more nurses.

Put your money where your mandate is. Labor costs have increased by 40 percent since 2019 and even those increases have resulted in less nurses available for hire. Rep. Crenshaw articulates simply what we all have begged CMS and our state agencies to acknowledge. You can’t mandate what is not possible. Trust us, we’re trying. Furthermore, how can you expect to attract more nurses to the long term care sector when all the general public hears from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and @POTUS is that the industry is full of bad actors? The rhetoric around long term care must change on a national level or even the most compassionate caregivers will continue to count it out as a career path.
