We need input from NAs about some special issues of care.
Anyone can become an author and when you submit your ideas and wisdom to us for articles and publications, you become a published author and receive a letter about how to put this on your resume.
The nice thing about this program is that you do not need to be concerned about spelling, punctuation or phrasings - its the ideas and wisdom that counts.
The current topic is: How can docs and NAs work together better for the resident who has chronic pain?
What do you want the docs to know about working with the person who is in pain? How can they help you do a better job?
You can email us privately at [email protected] or respond to this message board - but it is important for NAs to speak for themselves in these issues because no one else quite understands how it is for you. Here is your chance to educate a lot of people about who you are and what you do when providing care.
to submit or if questions - email to [email protected]
or phone 330 825 9342
