July 2012 Highlights - a podcast by Unknown

Editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy and clinical managing editor Karen Roush present the highlights of the July issue of the American Journal of Nursing. This month offers two CE features: one is original research exploring the barriers and facilitators to implementing and following clinical guidelines among nurses. The second CE feature focuses on the use of therapeutic hypothermia following cardiac arrest – its uses, induction, adverse effects on nursing care. Other features include a look at commonly used dietary supplements by patients with diabetes, the use of community health workers in chronic care, especially diabetes, and the story of how an NP at a public hospital in San Francisco began a Bridge Clinic to improve transitions from hospital to primary care.

And of course there’s News, an AJN Reports on disappearance of nurses at WHO, Drug Watch, Journal Watch, Art of Nursing, and Reflections, “ In the News”, and more. You can listen to podcast interviews with David Benton, CEO of the International Council of Nurses on the lack of nurses at the WHO, and with the authors of the Bridge Clinic.
