Welcome to the Show

Good day and welcome to this week’s episode of the Nursing Show podcast for nurses, by nurses. I’m your host Jamie Davis and I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for checking out the show this week. First up, in this week’s nursing news items, we look at how hospitals are using social media tools like LinkedIn to recruit and retain nursing staff. How can you use this to your advantage?

Then, in this week’s special tip segments shot in the Physio-Control booth in New Orleans at the AACN critical care nurses conference, I have two nurse educators talking about sepsis management and improving CPR quality. We’ll have that and more later in this episode after the news.

If you want to get back in touch with me, please drop me an email. You can send those e-mails in to [email protected]. I love to hear from you and I make sure I respond back to every email that comes in. Send me links to news items you’d like me to cover, interview suggestions with you or somebody you know.

Also, a special thank you to Physio-Control, Nezzie by Blickman, and Advanced Ultra-Violet Systems for sponsoring my trip to that amazing AACN Critical Care Nurses conference.  That’s it. I will have more contact information coming up later on in this episode. Let’s get on into this week’s news items coming right up!
