Nurses Say IT Efforts Ignore Their Needs







Nurses Say IT Efforts Ignore Their Needs

Nurses Say IT Efforts Ignore Their Needs 07/16/2004 04:51 PM

A survey of "early adopter" nurses finds that many of them are paying for devices such as PDAs out of pocket, and they say vendors are delivering poor-quality products that reflect a lack of understanding of what nurses do on a daily basis.

Swedish Gang Members Punk Nurses Via
Cameraphone
09/21/2004 03:02 PM

The gritty streets of Sweden are littered with the burnt and twisted carcasses of their many gang members, toppled bun carts, and half-expended tubs of peroxide paste - and now the violence is spreading to the hospitals, or so they would have us believe. Word is that youth who think they need prioritized health care are sending cameraphone picture threats to medical staff. As if nearly-free health care wasn't enough, now they've got to go and get all pissy because they aren't first in line. They ought to come over here and get stabbed - then we can see how much they like waiting in line, filling out the forms to claim you're a one-legged Hasid lesbian.

Also, this particular internet person pictured may not actually be a real Swede gang member, but that's not what Google thinks.

Nurses Bidding On Their Work Schedule,
Hourly Pay Rate


Nurses Bidding On Their Work Schedule,
Hourly Pay Rate
12/08/2003 04:53 PM
When I was in business school we had a convoluted computerized bidding process (on a Vax) to get into various classes. Now, with the success of eBay, it seems that everything is becoming auctionable. A hospital in upstate NY is using an online bidding process to fill open schedule spots for nurses. The nurses get to log in, see what timeslots are open, and bid how much they'd want to work those hours. If they match the necessary qualifications the lowest bidder wins. The nurses find that they can make more money than their standard wages (or augment their standard wages) by picking less desirable times to work (which sometimes are more convenient for them). The hospitals save money by not having to hire outside nurses (at much higher rates) to fill open timeslots.

I just received 200 comment spams. They each listed a different URL and came from a different IP address,which means the invaluable MT-Blacklist (thank you, Jay Allen) has to be told to delete each one, one at a time. Instead, I cobbled together an Outlook script — yes, I use OL on my desktop machine, although I've been happy with Thunderbird on my laptop — that looks through the messages you have highlighted in your inbox and builds a list of the URLs that people listed in the URL field of the comment. You then paste these into the text...

A study from ABI Research urges service providers that plan to use WiMAX not to ignore small and medium size businesses: While the firm concludes that by 2008, 42 percent of subscribers will be residential, another 16 percent will be small or medium businesses. Those businesses tend to churn less than consumers and will likely spend more on their connections so operators would be wise to target them. ABI expects that combined revenues for 802.16 and 802.20 should pass $1.5 billion by 2008....

Why You Should Ignore The Gallup Poll This Morning - And Maybe All Of Theirs If you support the Dems, you might want to pass this on!
"This morning we awoke to the startling news that despite a flurry of different polls this week all showing a tied race, the venerable Gallup Poll, as reported widely in the media (USA Today and CNN) today, showed George W. Bush with a huge 55%-42% lead over John Kerry amongst likely voters. The same Gallup Poll showed an 8-point lead for Bush amongst registered voters (52%-44%). Before you get discouraged by these results, you should be more upset that Gallup gets major media outlets to tout these polls and present a false, disappointing account of the actual state of the race. Why?"...
