A nurse who graduates from the student period is the one who is going to turn out to be a clinical nurse specialist, working in any setup to handle emergencies. But how far does the curriculum focuses on the very basic critical care to handle emergencies. It is well known fact that sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death in the world and most of them die before reaching the hospital or in the emergency room. During such situations where time plays a crucial role in the recovery, even a second delay can further decline the chances of recovery. Hence is imperative to note, whether the student nurses are really competent to handle cardiac emergencies? The current scenario shows that nurses constitute the largest single group of health care professionals in any health care organization. The very nature of their work brings them closest to the population they serve. Due to their person to person interaction, Nurses are expected to be mainly responsible for the efficient and effective management of patient care services. More importantly, it must be ensured that they are adequately trained in terms of cardiac emergency drug management which is a crucial step in a patient's survival in cardiac emergencies. The present study emphasized on the existing knowledge and application skills on cardiac emergency drugs, which clearly showed that the students require further input into their knowledge and practice. Hence, errors in medications are made whether minor or major and even to the extent of losing a person's life. Therefore students' lack of complete knowledge and practice can have adverse impact on the quality of care and also threat to patient's life.Keywords

One of the greatest challenges to balancing work and home life is job demands. Job demands include time pressures and deadlines, long hours, unclear or conflicting duties, having too much responsibility, or work that is too tiring or boring. When employees are out of balance, they experience more stress and fatigue and tend to be absent from work more often due to these reasons. They have less focus while at work because they are worried about issues at home and they are also more distracted at home because work matters weigh on their minds. The end result is that neither the situation is healthy nor productive; in short, it's a lose/lose situation for employees, their families and their employer. Hence the researcher out of much curiosity conducted a descriptive survey to investigate the balance between work and life among the nursing and allied health personnel. The findings showed that majority, 65 (95.59%) has moderately balanced work-life and 2 (2.94 %) had well balanced work-life and only 1 (1.47%) had poor work-life balance and majority are satisfied with their job. The findings also showed that there was correlation between work-life balance and job satisfaction as obtained value was (.237) which is higher than the table value (.232) which indicates that higher the job satisfaction, better the work-life balance. Chi- Square test also revealed that there was no significant association between Work-life balance and the selected variables.Keywords

A class of undergraduate nursing students of size 80 was randomized to control and experimental group for teaching pharmacology (respiratory drugs) using Active Lecture Cum Live Demonstration (ALLD) and Active Lecture Cum Video (ALV). The controls were taught with ALLD and the experimental groups of students were taught using ALV. It was observed that the mean post-test knowledge score (50.05) of the experimental group after the competency programme on drug administration using active lecture cum video were apparently higher than the control group (45). Hence the competency programme on drug administration using Active Lecture cum Video (ALV) proved to be more effective than Active Lecture cum Live Demonstration (ALLD).Keywords

Out of the 115 health care professionals who were randomly selected, it was observed that most 95.7 % had been exposed directly or indirectly to fumigation. Majority 61 (53%) had been working in area for more than 5 years. Most 95.7% of these staff carried out fumigation as part of their responsibility in their respective unit. Majority, 60 (52.5%) had been exposed to fumigation more than 16 times and more. It was also noticed that majority, 60% of them had respiratory symptoms - cough was reported by 73.9 %, eye irritation 53%, nasal symptom 22.6%, wheezing 13.9%, Breathlessness 12.2 % and skin irritation 6.1%. Of these 60 % who had respiratory symptoms amazingly only 9.6% had reported to their physician for medical help. This clearly indicates that chemicals used for fumigation causes respiratory symptoms minor or major in nature. It is also noted that health problems are being neglected and not reported for early management or change.Keywords

Effective nursing care requires identification of the needs of the patient and planning nursing care according to patient's needs. In the Indian context it is very much necessary to study the nursing care needs of patients undergoing hemodialysis even though enough literatures on nursing care protocol based on the nursing care needs of patients are available in countries like U.S.A. Interview carried out among 50 patients on their health problems while undergoing Hemodialysis were ranked so that priority care can be provided. Following the priority problems, a nursing process approach was developed, which has been used by nurses working in the dialysis unit while taking care of the clients. The study found that the nursing process approach was very effective and proved rational care of patients undergoing Hemodialysis as it could prevent the complications.Keywords
