Hi all! I have been an LPN for over 30 years with experience in Geriatrics, Med/Surg, OB and Labor and Delivery, Home Health Care, Ambulatory, and Dr.'s office. Of all the above I really loved the idea and the job of Home Health Care. Back in the 1980's, however, when I was full time Home Health Care the patient's had a hard time getting the funding from Medicare/Medicaid. These were vent patients who required nursing care as well as providing respite care for the family. The two families that I was involved with ended up with the patient outliving the spouse. This, I can attest to, was due to the long hours, stress, and constant battling with the "system" to get and keep the nursing hours in which they were receiving. It was really just too bad. I do hope the "system" has changed somewhat. |

My company, Mitchell Martin Inc. in NYC, is sponsoring a free 3 hour training for practicing clinicians who are licensed Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses or Nurse Practitioners. This seminar is intended to “ease the fear and anxiety” that medical staff may experience when encountering a patient who is non-verbal and developmentally or physically disabled. We've found that most nursing professionals have little or no clinical training in communicating with non-verbal patients in a medical setting, whether it be in a hospital, skilled nursing facility, or hospice facility. Participants will view a slide show which shows the horrific treatment adults and children received at Willowbrook in Staten Island before it was closed down by the State. Attendees will include FNPs, RNs and LPNs who feel there is a need for education in the field of caring for people with disabilities and mental retardation. It is an opportunity to resolve the fears and anxiety among nursing professionals who may reject an opportunity to care for, or to work with, wheelchair-bound patients with MRDD because of their minimal, or lack of knowledge, in communicating with patients or understanding their special needs. |

Looking for any psych nurses out there that want to share innovations in the treatment of our unique group of patients. Also looking for a place to practice since I was just let go by my last employer. |
