- Abstract
This article offers update on the outreach efforts of several members of the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) as of May 2006. In the article "Nursing Shortage Hits Critical Stage," Justine Medina, director of professional practice and programs, was quoted as saying that some parts of the country are in a crisis phase and it is going to get worse before it gets better. The article "Perseverance That Paid Off: Outpatient Intervention Work Garners Awards for CC Nurse," noted that Mae Centeno, a cardiovascular nurse educator, has received national attention for developing new outpatient interventions for heart failure patients. The article "Actually Achieving Our Preferred Future" included a reference to the AACN Standards for Establishing and Sustaining Healthy Work Environments. Listed as the first standard is skilled communication with emphasis on access to communication technologies and proficiency in their use.
