Breast Self Examination, Y-ME.org, in English & Spanish:"Breast Self Examination or BSE takes just a few minutes, and you only need to do it once a month. If you are menstruating, perform BSE 7 to 10 days after the first day of your period, when your breasts are least tender. If you no longer menstruate, choose the same day each month-to remind your self to do BSE. As you do your examination, keep in mind that your goal is to become acquainted with how your breasts normally LOOK and FEEL. Your knowledge of your breast texture and appearance will increase the more you perform BSE."

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month - Celebrate Partnership 1997 - New York State Department of Health:"One of the most important things you can do for your health is to get to know your breasts. Breast Self Examination (BSE) is the way for you to notice any changes in your breasts, changes that could be signs of breast cancer. If you should notice an unusual lump, discharge or any other change during the month, whether or not you notice it during BSE, contact your doctor. The earlier the doctor can examine it, the better. Most lumps are not cancer but all changes that you find should be checked out."

Breast Cancer Treatment Guidelines for Patients, National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN):"Since 1995, doctors have looked to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network for guidance on the highest quality, most effective advice on treating cancer. The Network has brought together experts from 17 of the nation’s leading cancer centers. After studying the research results on breast cancer treatment, a panel of these experts has agreed upon specific, state-of-the-art recommendations for treating women with the disease. (These guidelines do not address male breast cancer, which is much less common and is treated differently.) Every year the panel updates their recommendations based on advances in medical science."

Vulvar Self-Examination:

"Your Guide to The Benefits of Vulvar Self Examination (With Diagrams):"The "VULVA" refers to the external female genital organs...that very special area of a woman's body so vital to healthy female identity and sexual function. Yet...how often do most women correctly examine the vulva? Would you know the right way to check the vulva...what to look for? Could you find the early signs of important changes which mean the start of serious infection or even cancer of the vulva?"

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."

Nursing In The Media, Nursingadvocacy.org

• ER:"Media products under your influence, particularly the NBC/Warner drama "ER," are harming the profession of 2.7 million American nurses by giving the public an inaccurate and inadequate account of what nurses really do to save and improve lives. Research suggests that "ER" strongly and negatively influences the way children view nursing. These products contribute to the nursing shortage, a public health crisis that threatens millions worldwide."

• NBC's "Passions":"NBC's "Passions" solves nursing shortage: monkeys can do the job! Starting in March 2003 and at least as recently as late August, NBC's campy, supernatural daytime soap opera "Passions" has featured an orangutan named Precious in the role of the private duty nurse of one of its characters--a bold step backwards in the already slow...evolution...of the media's treatment of nurses. more..."

• "Scrubs" defines nursing:""Scrubs" defines nursing: it's all about shutting up and following physician "orders. " Tonight's episode of NBC's "Scrubs," which purports to teach nurse Carla Espinosa that nursing is all about doing what physicians tell you, is one of the most virulently anti-nurse prime time television episodes the Center has ever seen. more..."
