| This Week in Nursing Changing nurses' perception of infection risk could improve compliance with infection control measures. More than half of catheterized hospital patients experience complications, a new study finds. A study published in Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology found that hospitals may have dodged financial penalties by billing hospital-acquired conditions (HAC) as present at the time of the patient’s admission. Solutions Spotlight With greater numbers of newly licensed nurses entering a more challenging healthcare industry than ever before, organizations have found that one of the most successful ways to attract and retain them is through a nurse residency program (NRP). When set up properly, an NRP can provide an ongoing support system and a gradual immersion into the profession which can avoid the “sink-or-swim” approach that still pervades the industry. Organizations looking for resources to design and build their own NRP need look no further than Nurse Residency Program Builder, Second Edition. This title provides a multitude of expert advice and resources to get you started and truly make the program work for your facility. Each chapter gives you the best-practice components needed to implement or enhance a successful NRP within your organization. Testimonial “Jim Hansen has assembled a highly specialized and experienced team in developing The Nurse Residency Program Builder, Second Edition. . . I think anyone planning to enroll in a professional (RN) Nurse Residency Program, preceptors, faculty members, program leaders, and nurse managers could benefit greatly from reading this book.” — Patricia Benner, R.N., Ph.D. FAAN Click here to order!
