I'm your host Jamie Davis and I'd like to welcome all of you to the program this week. We have a lot of great stuff coming up for you. That includes our news items looking at nursing shortages and reporting medication errors, as well as our follow-up with part two of the segment on ECG reading. All of that will be coming up later on in this episode. I do want to remind you, before getting to all that, to check out all of the additional information, resource links, news items and everything else you can find over at NursingShow.com (http://nursingshow.com). There's a shownotes link right at the top of the page. Click that link and use it to find the most recent episode listed first or scroll down to find previous episodes that way you can find additional resources and additional materials posted from the episodes every single week. An important reason to do that is that I can only speak about so much in a short time frame. I may even accidentally misspeak on occasion. When that happens, it's up to you to make sure you know what the full facts are. You must follow-up on the in-depth information and then understand how that applies to your own scope of practice. I'll try to continue to bring accurate, good information here on the show in short segments and it'll be up to you to see how you can apply that to your nursing practice. Let's go ahead and get on into the show but I also want to remind you to get back in touch with me. You can send an e-mail to NursingShow@Gmail.com (mailto:nursingshow@gmail.com). We'll have other contact information later on in the episode. Without further ado in just a sec, we'll get into the news.
