Shining a Light on Obstetric Violence in Nursing - Join me for a panel discussion on Sept 19. As healthcare providers, it’s our duty to ensure every patient feels respected and safe. Yet, obstetric violence remains a harsh reality in some birth settings— unintentional whether through coercion, lack of informed consent, or dismissive care. Trauma-informed care is crucial in addressing these issues, fostering environments where patients’ voices are heard and respected. Let’s work together to create a culture of empathy, dignity, and empowerment in obstetric nursing. 💪 Join me for a panel discussion on this topic based on the recent publication: Exposing the Role of Labor and Delivery Nurses as Active Bystanders in Preventing or Perpetuating Obstetric Violence 2024 AWHONN Ohio Annual Conference - September 19-20 co-panelists: Cristen Pascucci, Paula Rojas Landivar, Maggie Runyon #ObstetricViolence #TraumaInformedCare #NursingLeadership #PatientAdvocacy

Join us for the next free webinar 'Frailty in nursing homes: the SENIOR cohort'. According to the World Health Organization, the number of people aged over 80 will triple between 2020 and 2050. This aging process is often accompanied by functional decline including loss of mobility and frailty, leading some elderly people to be placed in nursing homes. In this IOF-ESCEO BoneCast webinar, Professor Olivier Bruyère will review the definition and diagnosis of frailty, highlight the associated comorbidities, and present some socio-demographic and clinical data, using the example of the SENIOR cohort, which prospectively monitors Belgian nursing home residents.

The SNEC-SERI faculty is proud to present the latest issue of Eye-Sight. Here we focus on our youngest patients: babies who need extra care for their eye health. Newborn babies born prematurely may need careful monitoring for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a disease that can have grave consequences for a child’s vision. Other highlights include: · The long-term safety of Atropine eyedrops in myopia control where there is no increased incidence of complications such as cataracts in adulthood 10-20 years later. · How our post-graduate nurses are upskilling themselves to lead thermal treatment for dry eye disease. · Our very first nurse clinician, Nazurah Loh. In an interview, she describes her path to success in nursing. Download a copy of our #EyeSight from our website: https://lnkd.in/gBGcbkiq Happy reading! #SNECSERI #EyeCare #Atropine #ROP #EyeSight
