Yesterday I taught in two #BLSD courses for #nursing students at their final year before graduating.

They cared about the topic, they asked pertinent questions, they were curious and demonstraded good knowledge and nearly perfect techniques.

Sadly I don't always see this positive attitude during the recertification courses for my fellow #nurses, #doctors and other #healtcare operators.

Eveyone should take example from this new generation of professionals. May their enthusiasm never fade!

Best Healthcare System in the World:

Health Care Companies Are Using Debt to TRAP Nurses on the Job

"If he quit or was fired before a year on the job, Rudis would have to repay UCHealth up to $7,500 for training, with any debt accruing 12 percent annual interest.

The arrangement is called a Training Repayment Agreement—critics add the word “Provision” to round out the acronym."

1/3: A message I wrote to a friend re. healthcare spending of nations, which they had observed to be increasing:

I'm of the (uneducated) opinion that as countries/peoples become more wealthy in peace-time, once they percieve their needs as met, they end up spending that wealth on healthcare. A great tragedy from our perspective is that the best healthcare spending is preventative, but the wildest healthcare spending I observe through anecdote in other countries is curative; notoriously seen in futile end-of-life care in America.

The most obvious homologue - of a nation spending a hoofing amount of it's wealth in a given industry - seems to me the "military-industrial complex". It's a slightly clumsy term for our purpose, but here the military is a function of the government which in turn is a function of the country/peoples. So I think of it as a nation spending a hoofing amount of it's money on funding the industries that manufacture and deliver "warheads on foreheads", so to speak.

The best summary of this was provided by Eisenhower. I paste here words from https://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/robert-schlesinger/2011/09/30/the-origins-of-that-eisenhower-every-gun-that-is-made-quote:

> More than a week after Stalin’s death, Eisenhower was talking with speechwriter Emmet Hughes about the address. “Look, I am tired—and I think everyone is tired—of just plain indictments of the Soviet regime,” Ike said. “I think it would be wrong—in fact, asinine—for me to get up before the world now to make another one of those indictments. Instead, just one thing matters. What have we got to offer the world?”

If you write medical fiction . . . here's something to add to your resources links.

MacGyverMedical over on Tumblr answers medical/nursing/first aid/public health asks for fiction/fanfic writers. ⚕️

Today they posted a nicely detailed item on the "scope of practice" for RNs (Registered Nurses). Turns out, it can be rather broad—depending on the state (U.S.) you practice in.

Here's the link: https://www.tumblr.com/macgyvermedical/725184210030215168/rn-scope-of-practice?source=share

“Belief systems are incredibly complex, and they can’t be dismantled with information. If this is your belief system, all the logic and proof in the world is never, ever, ever going to make you say, ‘Oh my God, I never thought of that.’ So, emotion has to be fought with emotion.”
