👏 Shoutout to Alex (The Break Nurse) Whitefield, MSN, RN! 👏
In the realm of #nursing, where outdated practices persist, Alex is a beacon of innovation. His groundbreaking software tackles a pervasive issue—#nurse breaks. Here's why it matters:
When a #nurse assumes care of patients and takes on additional assignments during another #nurses break this is not just a workflow challenge; it's a risk to #patientsafety and legal liability to the nurse and the organization. As stated by a lawyer: "Knowingly and willing taking on an unsafe assignment is the definition of medical malpractice." I've witnessed firsthand how taking on an unsafe assignment even when relieving another nurse for a break compromises response times and exposes both nurses and facilities to potential failures to respond - aka bad outcomes and litigation. Under rules and regulations and codes of ethics, it's the duty and responsibility of all nurses to provide a safe environment for all patients and I am here to remind all #nurses that nothing supersedes the professional license of a provider ever!
What Alex has created is revolutionary! It's not just about providing breaks; it's about ensuring continuity of care and mitigating risks - a gift to any organization. When there's a relief #nurse, work continues seamlessly, preventing delays and potential legal repercussions to the nurse and the organization. As a nurse with 23 years of critical care experience and former investigator for a board as well as a civil and administrative expert, I've seen the consequences of inadequate staffing and lack of breaks cost patients their lives and nurses their licenses.
Alex's solution isn't just a win for nurses—it's a win for organizations. It saves thousands of dollars in legal fees and fines from governing bodies, improves #nurse satisfaction and retention, and, most importantly, enhances #patientcare and safety.
Another HUGE thanks to Rebecca Love RN, MSN, FIEL for connecting us, I love meeting trailblazing nurses. I'm thrilled to connect with Alex at #vive2024! #nurses are taking the helm, advocating for change, and making a real impact on healthcare outcomes and I am proud to stand amongst them.
Let's continue this momentum and usher in a new era of #nursing excellence! We are done with asking to have a seat at the table and creating our own, come on over to the South Pavilion and visit us all!!! 💪🌟
Alex, I cannot wait to meet you in person at VIVE2024!!! #Nurses come and connect with us in the NURSE PAVILION and see how nurses are changing the face of healthcare!! #ISTANDWITHNURSESRescueRNMick HopkinsRNegadeJenny FinnellJean Ross, RN

As Nurses Week comes to a close, we celebrate the legacy of Florence Nightingale, the mother of modern nursing, on not only her special day but Mother's Day. Cara Spencer PhD, RN, FNP-BC shares a heartwarming birthday video in honor of the remarkable contributions the mother of nursing made to healthcare. Let's carry her spirit of compassion and dedication forward every day. Happy Birthday, Florence, and happy Mother's Day to all!
My POV:
As National Nurses week comes to a close, here’s a good read for our non-medical professionals. Did you know that lifting practice restrictions on nurse practitioners creates more access to healthcare for your family and loved ones? Read more to understand the challenge we are facing…if you agree, lobby your legislators to get healthcare to be accountable to patients rather than private interest groups!
Happy nurses week to my nurse and APRN colleagues (NPs, CNSs, CNMs, CRNAs)!
