"Now, students pursuing what have been classified as 'professional degrees' are granted a higher loan limit of $200,000 total. Other degrees are classified as standard graduate degrees, which means students can borrow up to only $100,000. People in public health and nursing worry that these proposed limits will disproportionately impact students of color who are seeking to go into women-dominated fields."

Patients may feel unsafe, judged, or ashamed, leading them to disengage from preventive care, withhold […]

Quiet Valor: Nurses Who Cared a record on a form of nursing work that rarely draws attention and almost never seeks it.
Quiet Valor: Nurses Who Cared, by Larry Nouvel & Jennifer Harrington RN

RANT: Started using the new ENFit feeding tube bags and accessories. ENFit was an industry-wide change to "fix" a problem that didn't exist. I put it off as long as I could. Feeding tubes have been around since the 1800s, pretty much unchanged. There wasn't a problem "mixing up" feeding tubes with intravenous IVs. They could have colored coded the existing setup.
I shouldn't have to have to use a wrench to use my feeding tube or its accessories, like medication syringes. I shouldn't have to use an ENfit cleaning kit because stomach contents (puke) now reside in the connections after using them because you can't flush the cavity. #Medical #MedMastodon #enshittification #Enteral #Nursing #FeedingTube
I shouldn't have to spend a hundred dollars to buy various adapters to use my stocked up medical supplies or spend thousands to buy new ENFit supplies. Of course, nothing is being produced "generically" now. It's all proprietary and shared by the few large mega-medical supply manufacturers through a trade organization they formed just for enteral (feeding tubes) care called the Global Engineered Device Supplier Association
After 14 years with my feeding tube, ENfit has now taken away my #accessibility to use my feeding tube and self-administer some of my medical care.
The ENFit transition is a global patient safety initiative to standardize enteral feeding tube connectors, replacing old "legacy" connectors with a new, twisting design to prevent misconnections with IV lines.
delighted to have been gifted the Victory medal of Clarissa Bedwell who was a member of the Queen Alexandra (QAIMNS). I found her nursing career lasted far longer than the years of the conflict-44 years in fact! #WW1 #Nursing #WomensHistory historicalclues.blogspot.com/2026/02/sist...
It's funny. The first recorded words of Florence Nightingale were "When I am no longer even a memory.", and yet somehow, we remember her to this day. Without her, modern nursing practices would not exist, so her prodiction that she would no longer be a memory did not come to pass. This is her voice, for those who haven't heard it.
