2019’s Best & Worst States for Nurses
WalletHub (@wallethub) reports that nursing occupations are some of the most lucrative careers with the lowest unemployment rates in the U.S. In fact, the industry is expected to grow at more than double the rate of the average occupation through 2026. With such bright projections, WalletHub took stock of the nursing industry to help registered nurses, particularly new graduates, pick a place to live that will bring success. Check out their findings, commentary from a panel of experts and a complete description of their methodology.

Woman’s Hospital Launches Smartphone-access Patient Charts
Woman’s Hospital in Baton Rouge implemented Meditech’s Expanse Point of Care app system this week just in time for National Nurses Week! Nurses can now use a smartphone or tablet to access patient information and administer medications using barcode scanners, rather than wheeling clunky workstations in and out of patient rooms .
