Collaborative Model For South Korean Nurses: Education, U.S. Rn Licensure, And Employment, Gail K. Baumlein
Learning Showcase 2014
The purpose of this poster is to describe the collaborative model developed between a private university in the U.S. and constituents in South Korea to facilitate nurses’ attainment of a U.S. registered nurse (RN) license, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree, and employment in the U.S.
Throughout the world, nurses are being encouraged to increase their educational preparation from an entry level diploma or associate’s degree, to the BSN degree (International Council of Nurses, 2009). In South Korea, the government has recently mandated that nurses attain a BSN degree, and has closed all programs offering only the lower …

Anticipators Job Stressors Of Nurses Returning To The Workplace: A Mixed Methodology, Carol Peterson
Learning Showcase 2014
Multifactorial reasons have produced a growing nursing shortage. One possible group that could reverse this shortage in inactive nurses. Many stakeholders wonder about allocating scarce resources to identify, locate, educate, and redeploy this group into active practice. The purpose of this one-phase embedded validating quantitative mixed methodology was to identify the anticipated job stressors of registered nurse (RN) refresher students as they prepare to enter the work force following a career break. The Likert-type Expanded Nurse Stress Scale (French, Lenton, Walters, & Eyles, 2000; Gray-Toft & Anderson, 1981) was used. The independent variables were the job stressors of RNs. The …

Factors That Hinder Underrepresented Minority Adn Students From Initially Pursuing Baccalaureate Nursing Education, Tanika Cherry-Montgomery
Learning Showcase 2014
The lack of minority representation in the nursing profession has been an area of concern for quite some time because of its direct correlation on the health of our nation. However, the lack of minority representation in the nursing workforce and on baccalaureate (BSN) college campuses persists. Students from underrepresented backgrounds comprise 26.6% of entry-level nursing baccalaureate programs (AACN, 2014) and 16.8% of the nursing workforce (HRSA, 2010), yet 32% of the US population is from a racially or ethnically diverse background (U.S. Census Bureau, 2011). The numbers of diverse nurses who are in practice pales in comparison to the …

Abstract
Diabetes has been a growing concern in the United States due to the rapidly increasing incidence of this disease over the past decade. In their 2014 report, the CDC reported there were 29.1 million people diagnosed with diabetes in 2012, comprising 9.3% of the total US population. In addition, according to the CDC, 1.7 million people were newly diagnosed with type I and type II diabetes in 2012 with health care costs at an estimated $245 billion. Moving forward, the most effective approach is to empower and educate these patients to self-manage their own disease to decrease or prevent …

Background: The trend of unplanned extubations is rising. Unplanned extubations are a safety concern for patients.

This study determined the efficacy of cleaning products on mobile phones. Previous research has demonstrated the risk for bacterial cross contamination between healthcare workers' hands, close contact equipment, and mobile communication devices. There is extensive literature on survival of organisms on inanimate objects. Mobile communication devices can act as a reservoir for bacteria associated with nosocomial infection. Additional studies show cross contamination between the healthcare workers hands, the mobile phones, and the patient.

Impact Of Tranexamic Acid (Txa) On Hemoglobin Levels In Elective Total Knee Arthroplasty Patients, Gina Anderson-Malum
Nursing Posters
Over the last 2 years, the Bone and Joint Center has focused on blood utilization for total knee and total hip arthroplasty. With the use of a blood transfusion protocol, we significantly reduced blood transfusion rates and standardized the approach to care. As an expansion of this work, other ideas to further decrease blood utilization were considered. The purpose of the data collection of preoperative and postoperative Hemoglobin (HGB) levels was to evaluate the effect of Tranexamic Acid (TXA) on the average change in Hgb levels compared to Hgb levels of patients that did not receive the medication. In addition, …
