The Teaching Nursing Home initiative will continue to expand its reach in 2025. With new partners joining, the program is bridging the gap between education and real-world caregiving. McKnight's Long-Term Care News covers how the initiative is empowering the next generation of nurses while enriching the lives of residents. #longtermcare #teachingnursinghome https://hubs.li/Q02-ZfFl0

GP practices are ‘often reluctant’ to take on nursing students because of funding constraints and a limited number of practice supervisors or assessors, a new report has said https://bit.ly/3ZhyPV7 #integratedcare

As a profession we need to be mindful that the conversation around men in nursing does not perpetuate bias for women nurses. For example, it has been suggested that men must be given opportunities for higher paying, and more autonomous and advanced roles to encourage them to enter the profession (Blackley, Morda, and Gill 2019). Graduate entry accelerated programs to fast-track men into a nursing career has also been proposed (Harding et al. 2018), the idea being to decrease the financial burden on men and time taken to attain post graduate qualifications and thus fast-track promotion. However, given the nursing shortage, why are these strategies not also suggested for women? Prioritising the success and career progression of men over their women counterparts reinforces patriarchal views that women are subordinate to and less valuable than men.  Whilst men are underrepresented in the nursing workforce, they are not oppressed.

A pilot program rooted in the “teaching nursing home” concept started three years ago with the goal of building a talent and educational pipeline between nursing schools and four Pennsylvania nursing homes. This year, it is blossoming, reaching more nursing students than ever to prepare them for careers in long-term care. https://lnkd.in/egDbWfjA #longtermcare #skillednursing #nursinghomes
