Millions of Dollars Worth of Information About Food, Nutrition and Health:"Here are a bunch of booklets and pamphlets the production of which cost millions and which we have all paid for. Well, US taxpayers, anyway. They are from various government agencies. There are a total of 96 publications."

Sunday, 16 January 2005: Self-Care: Why Is It So Hard?:"Although self-care activities should be common sense, "nurses often tend to put everyone else's needs ahead of their own [and are] so caught up in their professional life and its demands that they don't seem to have the time or energy to take care of themselves" (Swanson, 2004, p. 8). Some work environments actually seem to promote self-neglect. Such environments are recognizable by "hall talk," which goes something like this: "Oh, I'm just frantic this week; I have so many deadlines I couldn't accomplish them if I cloned myself 10 times.""I know what you mean, I haven't eaten dinner with my family once this week, and tonight will be no exception.""My work weeks typically average 55 to 60 hours, and I still can't seem to get on top of the demands."

Wellness Programs Can Offer $$, by Kristin Cassell:"Emeril isn't afraid to "Kick it up a Notch" so why not add a little spice and variety to your normal work schedule? Today, wellness programs are gaining speed in the private sector. HMO's, PPO's, health services, and even grocery store pharmacies are offering wellness services from glucose testing to flu shots. College campuses and corporations are requesting health screenings and immunizations. Why not use this as an opportunity to cook up a little cash while breaking the monotony? Seasonal vaccinations are a great way to earn extra dollars on the spot to put in your vacation piggy bank. In the winter, flu and pneumonia shots are a big draw. In the fall, college campuses are focusing on vaccinating all incoming and current students. Chuck Hackett at Maxim Health Services explains, "Nurses enjoy the gratification of helping people in an atmosphere different from a hospital or clinic." With the need for flu vaccinations reaching crisis proportions, wellness companies are diligently working to supply the population in need. As of early last December, Maxim has provided over 24 thousand vaccinations in grocery stores, wholesale outlets, pharmacies, senior centers and corporations. "This is a great opportunity for nurses to work in a new territory and a different way to apply their practice and knowledge," said Hackett."

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
