In the Know, Inc.:"In the Know is a publishing company dedicated to developing quality paraprofessional inservice solutions for health care organizations. The company was founded in North Carolina in 1998 by Linda Leekley, a registered nurse with extensive experience in clinical education, staff development and both acute and long term care.
At In the Know, we recognize that:
Nursing paraprofessionals will continue to be the health care occupation most in demand as the U.S. population ages.
Nursing assistants play a crucial role in a health care team.
Nursing paraprofessionals have the least amount of pre-employment education of any clinical employees and therefore require effective ongoing on-the-job training.
A serious difficulty exists in training and retaining a strong nurse aide staff." Category: Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) ****************************************************

Indian Journal of Medical Ethics, Doctor, is your writing legible? Animesh Jain, Prateek Rastogi:"Today, computers are used in every field of work including medicine. Despite the computer revolution, however, a great deal of information in clinical records in hospitals continues to be handwritten. The doctor may understand what he/she has written, but difficulties arise when other parties are involved.
The handwriting of healthcare professionals in general and doctors in particular has been known to be illegible and difficult to decipher (1). In India, as in most other parts of the world, it is generally accepted that doctors have handwriting which needs some skill to decipher. Yet the importance of a doctor`s handwriting cannot be overemphasised. Pharmacists and nurses have to read the physician`s prescription to dispense and administer the correct medication to patients. Patients need to understand the prescription to take proper and timely treatment. In one study, 117 case notes were examined and 18 (15%) were so illegible that the meaning was unclear (1). Another study suggests that doctors, even when asked to be as neat as possible, produce handwriting that is worse than that of other professionals (2). This provides supportive evidence for the commonly held belief that the legibility of doctors` handwriting is unusually poor."

Infomed Drug Guide, Penicillin: Adverse Reactions:"Severe penicillin hypersensitivity with anaphylactic shock is very rare and occurs mostly in connexion with parenteral administration (5 to 10 cases on 10000 treated subjects). The emergency treatment is based primarily on adrenaline (and, in addition, maybe intravenous corticosteroids, aminophylline).
However, hypersensitive skin reactions (skin rashes, urticaria) are frequent (1 to 7% of the treated subjects). High concentrations of cerebrospinal fluid are neurotoxic (lethargy, confusion, myoclonia, convulsions). A sterile abscess can occur at the area of the i.m. injection. Hemolytic anemia, nephritis, and liver granuloma are very rare complications. Massive i.v. doses are associated to a risk of an electrolyte and volume overload."

Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP), In the long run, penmanship classes for doctors won't do much for patient safety:"With the nation's attention now focused on patient safety issues, television and print journalists frequently cover stories about medical errors. Often, medication errors caused by poor physician handwriting are a common theme. While jokes and cartoons still flourish about illegible prescriptions, the public is personally familiar with this problem, and it is no longer considered a joking matter. Recently, national television networks and wire services have reported a number of efforts that are underway at hospitals across the country to bring doctors back to the classroom for courses in basic penmanship. While we applaud hospitals that seek to improve handwriting through these courses, we fear that such actions will achieve only marginal improvement at first and even less sustained improvement over time."
