Medical Credential Abbreviations Medical Credential Abbreviations By: Ashlee Hamilton May 13, 2016 English 205 Hondros college Medical Credential Abbreviations My topic is medical profession abbreviations that are common. The knowledge of medical professional’s and their scope or area of treatment vary in large amounts. The amount of medical professions is very large and grows by the day. Medical credential abbreviations help us as people out in the world know what type of doctor we are seeing at the time. We as people may not realize that we are using the abbreviations to identify the medical staff member, but we are. This is more of a subconscious happening in our daily lives. Not all of us understand exactly what each letter in the abbreviation stands for but we do have a general understanding. I will just be giving you a brief understanding and a little more depth onto what you may already know. There are thousands of medical credential abbreviations. They represent several different profession’s there are abbreviations to show for every type of healthcare provider. I will start off with STNA. This stands for State tested nursing assistant, this is someone who helps a patient with activities of daily living. They are under the direction of the nurse and doctor’s. They can only carry out things that are ordered in the plan of care. The nurse’s delegate simple task that are within the STNA scope of practice. The STNA take a course and that makes them a CNA when they are finished with the course. A CNA is a certified nursing assistant. They then have to take a state board examination to become an STNA. The state board examination is a combination of skills, such as changing a bed, hand washing, ambulating a patient, and so forth. They must also pass a written exam. They are expected to be compliant with HIPPA, which is to not disclose any information of a patient to anyone that is not on the patients care team. They work in all avenues of healthcare such as home care, hospitals, and nursing homes. Medical Credential Abbreviations The next abbreviation I would like to focus on is LPN this stands for Licensed Practical Nurse. An LPN is the nurse who works along with your RN and under the order and direction of your doctor. The LPN is generally a full time 12 month program at an nursing college. They must sit for the NCLEX after the completion of the program. The LPN is carrying out delegations from the RN and the LPN is delegating task to the STNA such as vitals, and activities of daily living. The LPN is allowed to do a lot of the same task as an RN but no hanging the first IV but they can maintain, they can not do any IV push medications. The LPN used to be used a lot more than it is today because we used to use what they call team nursing. LPN generally will be the one giving your medications and you generally find an LPN working in nursing homes, or doctors offices. RN is an Registered Nurse, they go to school generally full time for 2 years. This is an associate degree. The RN is the nurse that works directly under the Doctor or Nurse Practitioner. The RN is found mostly in the Hospital and long term care facilities the Rn is allowed to do most things they can flush a picc they can push medication in an IV, they can also hang the first dose of medication. An BSN is a bachelors of science and nursing, this is the more administrative and leadership side of the nursing. The next abbreviation I chose to use is the NP this is a Nurse Practitioner. An NP is a nurse with a master’s degree. The NP can be general family practice, teaching, or even specialized. They work under a Doctor. They can diagnose and treat they just can not write a narcotic prescription. The NP is becoming more common instead of always having to see a doctor. We are also being taught nursing by some NP’s. They are a vital role. They are seen in hospitals or doctors offices, or even nursing colleges. Medical Credential Abbreviations MD this is a doctor of medicine. A doctor of medicine is like your family physician. The MD goes through lots of schooling and even many long hours of fellowship and then they become attending, they really have lots of education behind them it is your degree plus then four more years on top of that for medical school. They are the backbone. They are the one who we as nurse’s do everything under the direction of. They are the one that is generally treating and diagnosing any condition and they are who writes all the orders. They write orders based off of the necessity found during their assessment. DO is an osteopathic doctor. This is a doctor who truly practices all avenues of medicine. They go through slightly more schooling than an MD. They have a wide scope of practice. This is another doctor that we as nurses carry out the orders of. I hope that you have a general understanding if you did not already on some awesome medical credential abbreviations. These are just a few of the medical credentials used most often. There are many more that I think I could possibly write a entire text book on just the medical credential abbreviations. This is a great thing to have a little knowledge about so you can make informed decisions of your healthcare. The Healthcare providers will help you in way’s you could never imagine and you could be entrusting your life in that persons hands so you would like to make sure you have a slight understanding at least on what schooling is necessary, what the job they do is, and how good they are. I hope this was helpful. I think it is more of a subconscious thing here in the US. We need to make sure everyone has the general understanding Medical Credential Abbreviations Bibliography AAPA.

In human services today, numerous regularly inquire as to whether ones bargained workplace represent a risk to patient well being. Furthermore, assuming this is the case, what conceivable changes can be made to guarantee that patients are accepting the ideal measure of consideration obviously. Numerous attendants realize that because of the rebuild of medicinal services in the late 1990's, most human services offices began cutting their staffing needs so as to lower cost. Only this added to over effort of the nursing staff, which prompted numerous getting to be "wore out." Burn-out comprises of a wide range of signs and side effects, for example, crabbiness, weariness, sleep deprivation, and hypertension. Some attendants have voiced encountering migraines, back torment and also sadness. There are numerous anxiety related variables at work and inside attendants' close to home lives. This is a noteworthy antecedent for simple wear out. Because of spending plan cuts on the ascent and administrative cut backs also, numerous social insurance offices are encountering an emergency with regards to nursing deficiencies and staff wear out, which both are imperative segments with regards to risky working conditions for the health care staff. The steady disintegration in the nature of consideration is at an untouched high. As indicated by (Carayon and Gurses, 2008), there are a few outcomes for an expansion in workload for medical attendants. For example numerous offices may see an expansion in falls, pharmaceutical blunders, and contaminations to give some examples. An examination was finished by the Institute of Medicine, this demonstrated the record number of deaths every year as a consequence of Preventable Medical Errors was some place between 44,000-98,000. Instead of 50,000 deaths connected with Alzheimer's illness, and the 17,000 deaths that were connected with unlawful medication use. (1999). By and by these Nursing Shortage vs. Patient Care 3 concentrates alone are all that could possibly be needed to demonstrate the effect that working under staffed may have on patient consideration. In greater part of any medicinal services setting, attendants are truth be told the fundamental social insurance supplier. The patients will in all probability experience and invest a lot of energy with the nursing staff amid their remain. However even in their most powerless minutes, one's security ought to never be risked. It's genuinely basic that we as attendants are intended to encourage the sheltered and legitimate conveyance of nursing consideration conditions. In order to have a positive impact on patient safety and patient care, one must ensure effective nurse staffing, communication and a productive work environment for nursing staff. As stated by Despin (2009), the key to obtaining a healthy work environment includes the ability to adequately address the soft issues. (p.11). Overall we must be vigilant and continue to promote safety, nursing shortages has many contributing factors. All of which, may or may not directly impact the outcome of patient care and safety. Despite the fact that the requirement for nursing staff is high, the actuality remains that selecting and holding qualified and skillful human services proficient is an issue also. During the time staff deficiencies and coherence of consideration has keeps on being debilitated by this. Most healthcare workers acknowledge nursing positions keeping in mind the desire of having lucrative, dependable staffing and a sheltered workplace. Numerous healthcare workers are liable to stay in the health services setting where more secure work practices and conditions are executed every day. One realizes that the nursing situations can't be changed at the snap of your fingers, yet in actuality usage of collaboration, administration Nursing Shortage vs. Patient Care 4 abilities, and part clarity may truth be told be a stage in the right direction to building a more secure and effective workplace. "Many nurses assume an indispensable part in patient care and wellbeing and now and again are viewed as the main line of safeguard. The effect that working understaff has on numerous medical caretakers is inescapable. I have went home a few evenings subsequent to working short and frequently consider on regardless of whether I was going to return for my next planned movement. I got myself overpowered now and again. As nurses we anticipate a sheltered workplace and I do concur that a change in the workplace would minimize the nursing deficiency in more routes than one. Not just will progression of consideration enhance, quiet security would never again be traded off." (R. Brooks RN, individual correspondence, May 3, 2016). Greater part of the medical staff that I had the chance to talk with and in addition from my very own experience, all concur that a decent workplace comprise of admiration, collaboration, satisfactory measure of staff, and backing from bosses and administration. Each of these are little points of reference in the health services world, yet in the event that these are connected every day they can advance a more secure workplace and in addition more secure working conditions.
