http://npworldview.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Adventures of a nurse practitioner in the U.S. Foreign Service. I've asked my colleague, Mary E. "Betty" Ulrich, MSN, RN, ANP-BC, FNP, to write a guest post. A nurse practitioner with the U.S. Foreign Service, Betty, a retired U.S. Army major and a member of the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International, is presently stationed in Kabul, Afghanistan. — Judie Pruett. In Liberia, a nurse told me she thought piped-in oxygen was a wonderful idea but did not expect to see this modern equipment du...

NP Worldview: Anne of the Foreign Service
http://npworldview.blogspot.com/2013/04/anne-of-foreign-service.html
Adventures of a nurse practitioner in the U.S. Foreign Service. Anne of the Foreign Service. On 6 April 2013, Anne Smedinghoff. A 25-year old U.S. diplomat working in Afghanistan, was killed in a car bombing. I never met Anne, but know her well. I know her from my years in the U.S. Foreign Service, working alongside the young—and not so young, but still idealistic and eager—officers who strive to bring the best of America to those outside our borders. When I worked in Ghana, West Africa, I frequently had...

Adventures of a nurse practitioner in the U.S. Foreign Service. Linked in but unhinged! Beware of jet lag. It can cause you to act in strange ways. Yes Though I don’t remember it at all, I had ordered one the first night back when my brain was still on low-function mode. I am totally baffled. Reflections on Nursing Leadership.

Adventures of a nurse practitioner in the U.S. Foreign Service. The babies of Karachi beach. Late one night, a group of us were driven to a secluded beach outside the city to view turtle egg laying. We were told there were no guarantees. It isn’t like the turtles make an appointment to crawl up on the beach to lay their eggs. While this is the busier season for egg, there are nights when no turtles arrive, or they come later than we are allowed to stay. Reflections on Nursing Leadership. This past month,...

Adventures of a nurse practitioner in the U.S. Foreign Service. I think the biblical scholars have it wrong when they propose that the Garden of Eden was located between the Tigris and the Euphrates. I’ve just returned from a driving tour of the South Island of New Zealand, and I’m pretty sure that’s the real. South Island of New Zealand is “Middle-earth. 8221; as all of the movies have been filmed there. And it makes for one bang-up trip. It is not easy to get to New Zealand, which may explain how it st...

Adventures of a nurse practitioner in the U.S. Foreign Service. Prague on my mind. And the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI) schedules its 24th International Nursing Research Congress there. As I spend my days in Karachi coveting my colleagues’ enjoyment of beautiful Prague and her fabulous culture, I will be remembering my very favorite places while I lived there. And, because I hold no rancor for my “missed opportunity,” I will share the thoughts I. With its more than one t...

Adventures of a nurse practitioner in the U.S. Foreign Service. Where's the billing department? On a recent trip to The Indus Hospital. Well, there is another really amazing fact. Indus is 100 percent paperless! All records and reports—all business—are electronic. Of course, since they have no billing department— can you imagine? How did this amazing institution come to be? A group of like-minded medical and business people decided it was needed and would be so—and now it is. The goal was free ...After m...

Taking hold of my dreams: From PhD student to PhD candidate
http://takingholdofmydreams.blogspot.com/2014/11/from-phd-student-to-phd-candidate.html
Taking hold of my dreams. From PhD student to PhD candidate. I am excited to announce I am now a PhD candidate! 8221;), so I have been patiently waiting for the day I could update my credentials. In the weeks leading up to my oral qualifying exam, it dawned on me I wasn’t required. On the subject of proper credentialing, and that sealed the deal. As much as I once looked forward to writing PhD(c) behind my name, I finally decided I would not use this distinction. PhD(c) isn’t recognized by some of ...
