Getting Started.

This blog will help me organize ideas about discharging a patient and their family safely home.
In Healthcare today the goal is Safe Passage for the patient and the family (my nursing practice is Patient and Family Centered) through the facility and Safely Home. (!)

I am a Registered Nurse with 20 years of experience providing Safe Passage to my clients in a Medical Surgical Unit. My expertise is Gyn., Urology, and Plastic Surgery discharge instruction. I can talk about Diabetic and CHF instruction also.

This blog will look at larger issues around safe passage and discharge home.

I am still very much a student and this blog will reflect my continuing education.

A very quick search of WordPress and I’ve found…

This is from Mercy Library Mosaic- “This blog features select searches, articles and website that support hospital clinical care, quality projects, patient safety issues, technology and health care management”.
