This study aimed to verify the effects of flipped learning on the academic achievement, teamwork skills and satisfaction levels of undergraduate nursing students. The flipped learning group received higher scores on academic achievement, teamwork skills, and satisfaction levels than the control group, including the areas of content knowledge and clinical nursing practice competency. In addition, this difference gradually increased between the two groups throughout the trial.

Maintaining HIPAA compliance in provider-to-patient communication and even in physician-to-physician communication is critical, which is why secure texting has increased in popularity. With technology evolving, organizations cannot afford to compromise PHI through SMS texting or an unsecured email.

Drones could be the difference between life and death for people suffering a heart attack. A team in Sweden compared how long it would take a drone carrying a defibrillator to get to an emergency versus traditional services, like an ambulance. Eighteen times in a row during the simulation, drones arrived before the hypothetical emergency services. And for someone suffering a heart attack, every one of those seconds counts.

Regulations can create a major time suck for staff in healthcare facilities, but digging a little deeper into protocols that hospitals follow rigidly could reveal that some rules are made to be broken.
That's the conclusion of Don Berwick, M.D., president emeritus of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, and coauthors from the organization, in a Viewpoint article published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
The administrative burden on clinicians contributes to widespread burnout. Many doctors spend more time with electronic health records and paperwork than patients, so some providers are outsourcing compliance tasks to outside groups.

The Simbionix SPINE Mentor, is hands-on simulated training and practice tool for minimally invasive spine surgeries. The medical training tool combines virtual reality simulation, 3D printing and medical tools to create a hybrid solution that extends the company's broad portfolio into spinal surgery training. 3D Systems tell us that the SPINE Mentor is "ideal for neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists, orthopedic surgeons and pain management surgeons to train for and practice procedures." The aforementioned groups would traditionally train using cadavers. According to 3D Systems, the SPINE Mentor provides a greater degree of realism and helps trainees gain the skills and confidence needed to perform spine surgery on living patients.

The University of Washington School of Medicine and Public Health is joining the Medical College of Wisconsin and five other medical schools in a new effort to transform medical education, as health care focuses more on population groups as well as individual patients.
"In addition to teaching students biomedical knowledge and clinical skills, they need to have the skills of professionalism, a societal perspective and be able to address the science of heath care delivery and public health issues," said Dr. Elizabeth Petty, senior associate dean of academic affairs at the UW medical school.

Contrary to what some may imagine, the construction and manufacturing industries do not have the highest rate of on-the-job injuries. In fact, hospitals hold this dubious distinction, and this should be great cause for concern among nursing and medical leaders. In terms of workplace injury activity in 2011, hospitals recorded 157.5 per every 100,000 workers. Meanwhile, the construction industry reported 147.4 per 100,000, and the manufacturing industry reported 111.8.
