Abby Rogers, who first investigated legal nursing as a career three years ago has made a commitment with impressive results. She began as a subcontractor, which she feels gave her the grounding to reach out for an independent career. Her first independent client didn’t know what he wanted, which gave her a unique opportunity to guide him.

Abby currently divides her work life between bedside nursing and LNC work. A special aspect of her promotional efforts involves LinkedIn, which she has studied in detail. While she feels that individuals find their own “sweet spots” in terms of types and amounts of posts, she shares what has worked and what has not worked for her.

Currently, she posts about three times a week. She also makes a point of responding to others’ posts. She analyzes her successes and failures in terms of responses and considers LinkedIn to be a major marketing tool for her.

She says that a lot of her best post ideas come when she’s walking her dog or doing other non-writing-related tasks. She urges those who want to post regularly to make a record of their ideas. Some may not be immediately relevant, but they can be used later.

When questioned about whether she uses artificial intelligence, she says only as a last step, for polishing language. She finds that if she makes it more part of the formative stage of writing, it ends up not sounding like her.

Abby is an enterprising and talented LNC businesswoman. You can learn a lot from this interview.

What you'll get from Mastering LinkedIn for LNCs

How can subcontracting help a nurse gain experience?

How does taking an open-minded approach to what you can do for a client help your business?

How frequently should you post on LinkedIn?

Why is it important to respond to others’ posts?

What role can artificial intelligence play in writing posts?

Abby Rogers

With years of experience as a dedicated NICU nurse, Abby Rogers founded Birth Injury Nurses to bridge the gap between medical expertise and legal insights. Combining meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of neonatal care, she assists attorneys with comprehensive case evaluations and medical record organization,

Crime fiction is one of the most popular genres, with medical crime fiction occupying significant space on the bookshelves of devoted readers. True crime stories are also popular; but while we may enjoy reading them, we may not think of what it’s like to be at the heart of an investigation.

Here to open that door is Jenelle Lea, a highly experienced forensic nurse who is deeply committed to help justice prevail. She and our host Pat Iyer will share some fascinating stories about crime as it interfaces with investigative nursing.

It’s important to be aware that there are many variants in the medical-criminal world. When we think of crime, we may most often think of spousal or child abuse. It’s important, especially if you have elder parents, to know that senior abuse is a serious issue also.

Jenelle explains how important it is not to be swayed by the obvious. Does the woman who has what appear to be cigarette burns on her arms suffer spousal abuse, or has something else caused these wounds?

She also emphasizes that it’s all too easy to focus on the most obvious clue. Keeping your mind open to all possibilities is crucial for a forensic nurse.

If you feel inspired to explore the aera further, this is a good opening point. And if you are simply interested in some fascinating forensic tales, you’ve come to the right place.

What you'll get from Forensic Nursing Insights and Real Cases

What is forensic nursing?

What qualifications are required for this kind of work?

What special skills are needed to deal with victims of sexual assault and/or interpersonal violence?

How can a sexual violence scenario endanger others at the scene?

Why do some cases present a false impression?

Pat Iyer

One of the biggest challenges when we live in a world dominated by processed food is to eat in a healthy manner. Because of stresses in our lives, we are conditioned to handle them by eating sugary or fat-laden food. When we’re tired and don’t feel like cooking, we reach for a frozen dinner.

Kris Mew, a legal nurse consultant, shares today her own journey to a healthy pattern of food consumption. As a nurse, she was aware of the connection between disease and diet. She began by investigating the ingredients in what she ate in terms of healthy eating and realized that she needed to change her habits.

She details the role of sugar in weight gain and points out that many people aren’t aware of the hidden sources of sugar, such as sugar in their coffee creamers. This is only one area where sugar hides and causes damage.

To discover how food affects them, many people now wear glucose monitors, even when they aren’t diabetics. The monitor readings teach them how much sugar is in what they’ve just eaten.

She also emphasizes that we need to find healthy alternatives to burying emotions with food. Taking a walk, talking with a friend, or addressing what we’re feeling go far to solve the problem.

Kris emphasizes that it’s important to be patient with yourself. Lifetime habits don’t disappear in a day, but you will come to feel the benefits of improved eating with increased energy and calm.

What you'll get from Discovering Healthy Eating

What is healthy eating?

How did we slide into eating highly processed and unhealthy food?

How can you overcome the conditioned reflex to bury emotions in eating?

Why are non-diabetics now wearing glucose monitors?

How does exercise help?

Your résumé and curriculum vitae (CV) are your calling cards into a new job or career. (To simplify matters, I am calling them your documents.) As such, they need to be honest, accurate, and impressive. Learn how to polish your résumé with Pat Iyer and Barbara Levin.

In terms of honesty, it’s important to remember that your personal data is available through a few keystrokes. Honesty is no longer the best policy; it’s the only policy.

Accuracy is also important. The attorney who may be considering hiring you want to know that you are meticulous in terms of fact-checking and research. Millions of dollars and a family’s future financial welfare may depend on your ability to seek out the most important information. Be meticulous about billing. Don’t allow a client to accrue a big bill and be as honest as you can in terms of estimating expenses.

A further element of accuracy involves those all-too-often ignored aspects of spelling, punctuation, and grammar. An attorney reading your CV will notice typos and other errors, He or she may pick up factual inaccuracies or discrepancies in the dates of your work history. You can’t afford errors here.

Polishing Your Résumé - Here's what you'll get out of this session:

What is the difference between a résumé and a CV?

Why is it essential to regularly review each for accuracy?

What styles of type give your documents the best appearance?

How much experience do you need to be a well-qualified LNC?

Will artificial intelligence affect the employee selection process?

Pat Iyer

Being an expert witness encompasses a wide range of responsibilities and perspectives. Here to discuss some key issues are LNC Pat Iyer, host of this show, and physician and expert Amy Fogelman.

We stressed the importance of efficiency in a number of areas. A primary one is the it’s essential for an expert to take responsibility for keeping track of cases. The case that it’s at the top of your mind may not even be hovering in a lawyer’s awareness. Their paralegals are doing their best to keep things organized. It’s up to you to save yourself from surprises like, “Remember that case? It’s going to court next week.”

This kind of efficiency extends to your communications with clients and potential clients. Always reach out to a prospect as quickly as you can and set up systems to assure a smooth flow of discussion and understanding of your policies.

Also, be very clear on what kind of work you do. Staying in your lane is essential for an expert. If you take on something out of your area of expertise, it will reflect negatively on your record.

Be meticulous about billing. Don’t allow a client to accrue a big bill and be as honest as you can in terms of estimating expenses.

Overall, Pat and Amy clearly expressed their shared principles of integrity in the performance of their work. When integrity guides you, your chances of success are much higher than those of less dedicated practitioners.
