Why is nursing research critical? For there is no healthcare without #nurses and 30% are looking to leave the profession. Change in organizations is needed! @vahsrd @VAResearch @Sarahlkrein @kirstin_manges @MargueriteDaus

Time in meetings has more than tripled since Feb 2020. Nearly a third of meetings are unnecessary—wasting $25M a year for every 1k people. There are 4 reasons to meet: to decide, learn, bond, and do. If it doesn't serve one of those purposes, cancel it. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Burnout in healthcare is not new. Neither are the practices that @sanjaysaint and I propose to find some joy in medicine: framing, gratitude and kindness. The one I'm practicing today: "If you want to feel better, be kind"🙏🙏 @vahsrd @SeaDenCOIN @PSEPUMVA @nejmcatalyst
.@VeteransHealth uses the simple practices of framing, gratitude, and kindness as a remedy to burnout and a pathway to joy: nej.md/3csuydb via @hgrnepi @VAECHCS @sanjaysaint @VAAnnArbor #JoyInMedicine

@eamonsees shows us how to bring nurses into antimicrobial stewardship. 1️⃣ Include stewardship in nursing scope as a patient and med safety issue. 2️⃣ Provide tools, education, and culture that empowers RNs to feel confident speaking up about abx concerns. #PedsASP2022

Thrilled to officially share this work with the #PedsICU: Antibiotic reduction after diagnostic stewardship in the @BrightSTAR_QI collaborative. Thank you @AaronMilstone - I couldn’t have asked for a better mentor and teacher. And thank you to our amazing sites +teams!
Results from the Bright STAR collaborative: Multi-center diagnostic stewardship found blood cultures in the PICU safely reduced overtesting and broad-spectrum antibiotic use. ja.ma/3vC0m6a @BrightSTAR_QI @HopkinsKids @ChildrensPhila #PICUtwitter
