Graduates will obtain a diploma in Practical Nursing and may then be eligible to take the National Council Licensing Exam for Practical Nursing (NCLEX-PN) used to obtain nursing licensure in Tennessee. Practical Nursing is entry level nursing. Graduates are prepared with the background and skills to give knowledgeable, basic nursing care to patients with varying degrees of physical needs. Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) work under the supervision of registered nurses and doctors. Positions are available in hospitals, long term care facilities, physician's offices, home health agencies, and in industry. The program is one year in length and classes begin each January, May, and September. The program requires a full-time commitment, Monday through Friday. Students attend class for the first three months from 8:00 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. consisting of lecture style classes and laboratory instruction. Students will begin clinical experience in the fourth month of the program. Clinical hours and days are determined by the clinical facility and will vary.

  • Chemical Pancreatectomy Treats Chronic Pancreatitis While Preserving Endocrine Function in Preclinical Models
    Chemical pancreatectomy treats chronic pancreatitis while preserving endocrine function in preclinical models Mohamed Saleh, … , Krishna Prasadan, George Gittes J Clin Invest. 2020. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI143301. Research In-Press Preview Endocrinology Gastroenterology Chronic pancreatitis affects over 250,000 people in the US and millions worldwide. It is associated with chronic debilitating pain, pancreatic exocrine failure, high-risk of pancreatic cancer, and usually progresses to diabetes. Treatment options are limited and ineffective. We developed a new potential therapy, wherein a pancreatic ductal infusion of 1-2% acetic acid in mice and non-human primates resulted in a non-regenerative, near-complete ablation of the exocrine pancreas, with complete preservation of the islets. Pancreatic ductal infusion of acetic acid in a mouse model of chronic pancreatitis led to resolution of chronic inflammation and pancreatitis-associated pain. Furthermore, acetic acid-treated animals showed improved glucose tolerance and insulin secretion. The loss of exocrine tissue in this procedure would not typically require further management in patients with chronic pancreatitis because they usually have pancreatic exocrine failure requiring dietary enzyme supplements. Thus, this procedure, which should be readily translatable to humans through an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), may offer a potential innovative non-surgical therapy for chronic pancreatitis that relieves pain and prevents the progression of pancreatic diabetes.

In an increasingly crowded world, people rightly expect health care to meet their needs quickly and, where possible, tailored to their needs. Technology helps to deliver these elements, putting the power back in the hands of the patient. Health care is growing increasingly complex, and most clinical research focuses on new approaches to diagnosis and treatment. In contrast, relatively little effort has been targeted at the perfection of operational systems, which are partly responsible for the well-documented problems with medical safety. If medicine is to achieve major gains in quality, it must be transformed, and information technology will play a key part, especially with respect to safety. Technological innovation in health care is an important driver of cost growth.

Publicly Accessible Penn Dissertations. 581. https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations/581 This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations/581 For more information, please contact [email protected]. Impact of Continuity in Nursing Care on Patient Outcomes in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit Abstract Background: Nursing care is known to improve patient outcomes during hospitalization, but the mechanisms by which outcomes are improved have not been fully explicated. Continuity in nursing care (CINC) may be an important characteristic of nursing care delivery that impacts patient outcomes. However, evidence linking CINC to patient outcomes is limited. Purpose: The first aim of this study was ot examine the relationship between CINC and patient outcomes - length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, adverse events, and ICU-acquired infections - in a pediatric ICU. The second aim was to examine whether the match of nursing expertise to mortality risk enhances the relationship between CINC and patient outcomes. Methods: This cross-sectional study was a secondary data analysis of prospectively collected data that were merged from multiple databases from one pediatric ICU. The analytical database was a combination of four databases: the Nightingale Metrics database, the Virtual Pediatric Intensive Care Unit Performance System database, the Medical/Surgical Intensive Care Unit-Acquired Infection database, and the Safety Errors Reporting System database.

  • The Use of Human Milk and Breastfeeding in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
    The Use of Human Milk and Breastfeeding in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Position Statement #3065 NANN Board of Directors April 2015 The use of human milk and breastfeeding are essential components in providing optimal health for the critically ill newborn. As the professional voice of neonatal nurses, the National Association of Neonatal Nurses (NANN) encourages all neonatal nurses to provide mothers of critically ill newborns with the education, support, and encouragement needed to provide human milk for their infant. Association Position Human milk and breastfeeding are essential for the growth and development of the vulnerable infant. All infants should be exclusively breastfed for the first 6 months, with continued breastfeeding for a year or more. A top priority for neonatal nurses is to ensure that all families understand the unique role that human milk plays in the health of their child. It is the responsibility of neonatal nurses to provide all mothers with education about the benefits of human milk for their infants, regardless of the mothers’ original intentions regarding feeding, and to encourage them to express milk for as long as possible. Research by Hallowell and colleagues demonstrated that only 49% of NICUs had lactation consultants working in the NICU and that nurses only reported providing breastfeeding support 13% (median) of the time on their prior shift (Hallowell et al., 2014). Neonatal nurses should incorporate lactation support into their daily care to ensure that infants receive human milk through discharge and to help mothers achieve their personal breastfeeding goals. Nurses must possess evidence-based knowledge regarding the science of human milk, lactation, and breastfeeding.
