Despite the training nurses receive in school, nothing prepares them for the reality of working in a long-term care facility. Achieving success as a long-term care nurse requires understanding organizational structures, state and federal regulations, and work processes. It can be discouraging when the quality of one's work is questioned, especially after putting in hard work. It is even more morally distressing when one is hardly oriented to or trained in their work processes, as is common in long-term care practice. Feeling morally distressed creates a toxic work environment, leading to burnout and turnover among nurses. Change must happen, and it must be sooner if we are looking to recruit and retain more nurses and achieve quality care in facilities throughout the United States and beyond. Navigating Long-Term Care: A Practical Approach for Nurses is a comprehensive guide for long-term care nurses to enhance their understanding of organizational structures, state and federal regulations, and work processes. This 15-chapter manual uses the nursing process as a critical thinking framework and covers crucial aspects of resident care. In this book, you will learn new strategies on how to: Navigate your role as a long-term care nurseCommunicate effectively with clinicians and the interdisciplinary teamAccurately complete resident admission processes -assessments, medication reconciliation, and order transcriptionsManage discharge procedures, including acute transfers and RN pronouncementsNavigate the care planning processPrevent and manage infectious disease outbreaksPrevent and manage resident fall incidents and other sentinel eventsNavigate Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) processes and much more.Also included are case studies and post-chapter questions to evaluate understanding, making it an excellent resource for facility educators and training purposes. This book differs from what already exists as it is candid and geared to empower long-term care nurses to provide high-quality care that meets the standards set by the Centres for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and their organizations. Facility educators will benefit from the unique approach presented in this book, as it offers engaging and interactive methods for new hire orientations, annual staff retreats, and ad-hoc training. This book is an essential tool for new grads and all long-term care nurses seeking to improve their practice and provide the best care possible to residents and their families.

This book focuses on the linguistic needs of university students enrolled in English Medium Instruction (EMI) programmes in which disciplinary subjects are taught in English, a practice that has significantly risen over the last 20 years. It includes seven online, self-study modules (Creating outlines, concept maps, writing definitions, writing summaries, reporting data, the language of presentations and writing abstracts) that were designed after conducting specific research into students¿ needs in terms of academic genres and language functions. All these modules were piloted with students in different degree programmes. The piloting confirmed the suitability of the materials for EMI undergraduate and postgraduate learners and the benefits of following a genre-based approach in this specific context.

I den vidunderlige bohrbiografi af Abraham Pais "Niels Bohr og hans tid" Spektrum 1994, skriver forfatteren:"Hvordan kan det være at komplementariteten ... som Bohr selv anså for sit vigtigste bidrag, ikke nævnes i nogle af de bedste lærebøger i fysik?" Og jeg tilføjer:Hvordan kan det være at Bohr i de sidste 30 år af sit liv på skrift og i tale ustandseligt påpegede: "...vores vilkår som iagttagere af den verden hvoraf vi selv er en del."?Bohrs vigtigste bidrag...Og alligevel fænger spørgsmålene ikke rigtigt. Hvad er det vi overser?Spørgsmålene er tydeligvis hjemløse i vores nuværende videnskabelige paradigme. Bohr peger altså direkte på et forestående nyt paradigme med komplementaritet og selvreference som nøglebegreber. Bogen fremfører flere årsager til at et paradigmeskift er påtrængende nødvendigt.

Bogens anden del går i dybden med statistisk kvalitetsudvikling med serie- og kontroldiagrammer.

In this book, Richard Bussmann presents a fresh overview of ancient Egyptian society and culture in the age of the pyramids. He addresses key themes in the comparative research of early complex societies, including urbanism, funerary culture, temple ritual, kingship, and the state, and explores how ideas and practices were exchanged between ruling elites and local communities in provincial Egypt. Unlike other studies of ancient Egypt, this book adopts an anthropological approach that places people at the centre of the analysis. Bussmann covers a range of important themes in cross-cultural debates, such as materiality, gender, non-elite culture, and the body. He also offers new perspectives on social diversity and cultural cohesion, based on recent discoveries. His study vividly illustrates how our understanding of ancient Egyptian society benefits from the application of theoretical concepts in archaeology and anthropology to the interpretation of the evidence.
