Meet Sandra Gimblet, RN! Sandra is a multiple sclerosis (MS) infusion nurse who has worked in Shepherd Center’s Andrew C. Carlos MS Institute for 14 years. She sat down with us to share why she is so dedicated to her role. (Thread) #NursesWeek Image
✨Describe your role.
I give our patients with MS their IV infusion medications. Because these infusions can last anywhere from 1 to 6 hours, I am there to monitor my patients’ vital signs and teach them about MS and their treatment. Teaching is a BIG part of my job!
✨What do you love most about your job?
Our patients are like family to us and we’re like extended family to them. I feel blessed to have the skill to start IVs and love that my patients have the confidence in me to take good care of them.

Racism in nursing- centering the story of @DonQuenick-a 🧵

DonQuenick was a 3 time nominated Daisy award winning nurse working in ICU. She also received the American Heart Association award for performing CPR to a patient. She received many patient compliments. 1/18
DonQuenick (DQ) was by all accounts an excellent nurse-but she reported being treated poorly at work. This ranged from unsafe staffing assignments, unfair critiques, lack of leadership support, unaddressed complaints and retaliatory practices. At one point things went so 2/18
far as to include accusations of theft of patient belongings that were later dropped. In May 2019, Nurse DQ was caring for a patient who was critically ill. The family decided to withdraw care and the MD gave an order to remove him from the ventilator. This is fairly common 3/18

This #NursesWeek, we are featuring some of the nurses and patient care technicians (PCT) who care for our patients. Meet KaShari Warren, a PCT educator in Shepherd’s Brain Injury Rehabilitation Program. We asked her why she’s so passionate about her work. (Thread) Image
✨ Describe your role.
"I educate nursing staff by training new hires at Shepherd Center and creating content to educate our current nursing staff on the latest best practices. In addition to educating staff, I work on the floor with patients who have sustained brain injuries."
✨ What do you love most about your job?
"Knowing that I am part of a patient’s rehabilitation, either indirectly by teaching staff or directly by being their PCT, and that I made an impact on their lives is so rewarding (continued)

If #HealthCare positions itself as public priority number one during a #pandemic, then it goes without saying #nurses in fact perform a critical and central role in delivering said #health care. #NursesWeek2021 #NursesWeek #NursesDay #NursesMonth #Nursing #NurseTwitter #Nurse
By not only advocating for #HealthPromotion in general, but by also educating #patients directly and the public at large of the preventive measures necessary to avoid illness and injury, it's not an exaggeration to call #nurses out as #noble..
...or, at the very least their selfless #professional #nursing pursuits can be considered as such. Conjoined with providing actual #MedicalCare AND assisting with #rehabilitation AND providing emotional & psychological #support AND...

آج نرسوں کا عالمی دن اور #NursingWeek2020 منایا جارہا ہے، اس موقع پہ عالم اسلام کی سب سے پہلی نرس سے متعارف کروانا چاہوں گا🙏

رُفَیْدَهُ بنت سعد الاسلمیہ مسلم طبیبہ اور سماجی کارکن تھیں جنہیں تاریخ اسلام میں پہلی مسلم نرس اور پہلی خاتون جراح سمجھا جاتا ہے۔
مدینہ میں اسلام 1/7
قبول کرنے والی ابتدائی شخصیات میں سے تھیں۔ حضرت رفیدہ کا تعلق قبیلہ خزرج کی شاخ بنی اسلم سے تھا۔
حضرت رُفیدہ ایک ایسے خاندان میں پیدا ہوئیں جسے طب میں کمال حاصل تھا۔ آپ کے والد سعد الاسلمی ایک طبیب تھے، انہیں سے انہوں نے تربیت حاصل کی۔ نرسنگ اور بیماروں کی دیکھ بھال کے شوق 2/7
نے انہیں ایک ماہر معالجہ بنا دیا۔
غزوات نبوی کے دوران وہ علاج کیا کرتی تھیں۔ جہاد کے دوران زخمی ہونے والے سپاہیوں کی مرحم پٹی بھی سر انجام دیتی تھیں۔ پیغمبر اسلام کے مدینہ منورہ پہنچنے پر انصار خواتین کے ساتھ مل کر انہوں نے استقبال کیا۔
حضرت رفیدہ الاسلمیہ کو اصحاب سیر نے 3/7
