    Nursing 1 Nursing For other uses, see Nursing (disambiguation). "Nurse" redirects here. For other uses, see Nurse (disambiguation). Nurse A British nurse caring for a baby in 2006 Occupation Names Nurse Occupation type Healthcare professional Activity sectors Nursing, Health care Description Competencies Caring for general well-being of patients Education required Qualifications in terms of statutory regulations according to national, state, or provincial legislation in each country Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life. Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in a wide diversity of practice areas with a different scope of practice and level of prescriber authority in each. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has come to shape the historic public image of nurses as care providers. However, nurses are permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings depending on training level. In the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and specialized credentials, and many of the traditional regulations and provider roles are changing. Nurses develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with physicians, therapists, the patient, the patient's family and other team members, that focuses on treating illness to improve quality of life. In the U.S. (and increasingly the United Kingdom), advanced practice nurses, such as clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, diagnose health problems and prescribe medications and other therapies, depending on individual state regulations.

    Operating Together: 12 Years of Collaboration Between RCSI and COSECSA Leading the world to better health 1 Leading the world to better health Dr Enock Ludzu and patient, Mangochi District Hospital, Malawi. Photo courtesy of Antonio Osuna and SURG-Africa. Edited by Eric O’Flynn, Krikor Erzingatsian, Declan Magee and the RCSI/COSECSA Collaboration Dedication To everyone who made this happen. 1 Authors’ Note The story of the collaboration between the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) and the College of Surgeons of East, Central and Southern Africa (COSECSA) can only be properly told in conjunction with an account of the story of COSECSA. This book cannot, and does not attempt to, give a comprehensive history of COSECSA, only that part of it necessary for a better understanding of the story of the RCSI/ COSECSA Collaboration Programme. Recounting the exciting and inspiring story of COSECSA itself is for another day. We look forward to reading such an account in the years to come! 2 Foreword 4 Chapter 1 The Global Surgical Care Crisis 6 Chapter 2 A Vision for a Surgical Training College 10 Chapter 3 The Genesis of the Collaboration Programme 14 Chapter 4 The COSECSA Experience 23 Chapter 5 Examinations and Training Support 28 Chapter 6 Training Support 34 Chapter 7 Rural Surgery 49 Chapter 8 Harnessing the Power of Data 52 Chapter 9 Building the Organisation 56 Chapter 10 The Voice of COSECSA 63 Chapter 11 Evolution of the Collaboration – Successes, Failures and Lessons Learned 67 Chapter 12 Looking Forward – A Lot Done, More To Do 72 Chapter 13 In Memoriam 76 Bibliography 78 Acknowledgements 82 Glossary 83 3 Foreword by Minister of State for the Diaspora and International Development, Ciarán Cannon TD The late Kofi Annan, former United Nations Secretary-General and a great friend of Ireland, said that “The biggest enemy of health in the developing world is poverty”.

Address: Molloy College, United States.

A deeper understanding of their motivation, career paths, and job satisfaction is needed to target recruitment and retention efforts. Currently the largest male cohort entering nursing is by second career. This study examines if job satisfaction differs for men who choose nursing as their first choice of career, as a convenience after exploring other options, or as a second career. Methods: This mixed-method study examined the relationship between men entering nursing by choice, convenience or second career and their resultant job satisfaction. A convenience sample of 238 men answered an online survey. Entry path, current practice position, and future career plans in five years was by self report. Job satisfaction was measured using Lester’s instrument.

Ebola is far more difficult to catch than measles that is transmitted through the air. • Patients with Ebola need to be treated in isolation by staff wearing protective clothing. Symptoms "The feeling was overpowering. Ebola is like a sickness from a different planet. It comes with so much pain." - SALOME KARWAH, EBOLA SURVIVOR • People are not infectious (cannot pass on the virus) until they show symptoms.
