A survey measuring the degree of model compliance plan for clinical laboratories implementation in small/rural hospital laboratories.

The Office of the Inspector General published the Model Compliance Plan for Clinical Laboratories (MCPL) in February 1997. In March and April 1998, a survey of 200 Midwest hospital laboratory managers (hospital size < or = 200 beds) was performed to determine the degree to which their laboratories had implemented the various recommendations of the MCPL. Of the 200 surveys sent out, 76 were returned--a 38% response rate. Aspects of the survey were broken down into two categories: "Laboratory Manager Responsibility," those items that can be implemented independently by the laboratory manager; and "Administration Responsibility," those items requiring administration's direction. With the exception of rewriting job descriptions to include compliance issues, > or = 75% of the laboratory managers have implemented the items within their power.

Are you ready (to be a neuroscience nurse)?

On the pediatric neurosciences unit of British Columbia's Children's Hospital we are in the throes of a nursing staff crisis. In the last year alone we hired ten new graduates to work as casuals on our unit. With a two and a half day hospital orientation, five preceptor shifts, and a Competency Based Education Plan in hand, we send them off to the trenches. We know these nurses have little nursing experience and even less Neuroscience nursing experience. Yet, we expect them to care for patients and families whose problems they may not understand. For a preceptor, and senior colleague, this is a disturbing situation. We recognize that in their orientation shifts they have not even begun to experience the challenges of a Neuroscience unit. Have they cared for a child who has had a postoperative laminectomy? Do they recognize subtle seizures? Have they sat with a family who have just learned that their child has a brain tumor? No. We expect them to care for patients and families with minimal support. This is the reality of nursing today. Many of us pride ourselves on being committed pediatric Neuroscience nurses. Our physicians rely upon our assessment skills and they trust our intuition! We believe we have earned that trust. How can we convey our enthusiasm and excitement to our perceptees so they are motivated to stay and become experienced pediatric Neuroscience nurses? In this presentation we outline our paper to remedy this situation.
