The Relentless School Nurse: Access to the Research Behind Evidence-Based Practice Must Not End at Graduation
A virtual library card is needed for the legions of working professional nurses who must be current in our practice. However, our access to the very journals that hold the most cutting edge, evidence-based nursing practice (EBP) is inaccessible once we graduate.

I wanted to share with you an article I recently published in the Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools, and Early Intervention titled “Trauma and the role of the school-based occupational therapist”.

Trauma-Informed Classrooms: Educator Self-Care
Working in a school is hard. It doesn’t matter if you work in a suburban, urban, or rural area.

Re: Shootings & Suicides Past the Tipping-Point: ACEs Epidemic & Declining Lifespans in US
No PhD required- Anyone can easily Discern the TRUTH using only a Dictionary: "To pursue a policy of NATURAL IMMUNITY against a Deadly Epidemic is the literal definition of Genocide!" * University Students are even now being used as the modern version of SMALLPOX-BLANKETS! * Google the three words "Corcoran, Hillsdale College" to hear the head of education in FL under Gov.
