			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you a caring person who likes helping others? Have you ever considered going into the medical field? Earning a bachelor degree in nursing can make your future bright.  Employment specialists all agree that getting a bachelor degree in nursing in any specialty will vastly boost your income potential in the United States.</p>
<p><span id="more-136"></span></p>
<p>For people who feel they are too busy pursuing their own lives, earning an <a href="http://www.allied.edu/academics/degree/bachelors/">online bachelor&#8217;s degree</a> or <a href="http://www.allied.edu/academics/degree/associate/">associate degrees online</a> in nursing is one of the best options available.

Because the job market is only going to get more competitive in the next year, so you need every edge that you can find to get the good jobs, whether they&#8217;re in medicine or some other field. A bachelor degree in nursing can give you that edge.</p>
<p>Your career is in bright side!  Today it sounds right stating that a bachelor degree in nursing provides a strong basement for career advancement and higher level degrees, like a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) or a Doctoral Degree in Nursing.  In fact, if you are already functioning in the nursing field as <a href="http://www.medicalassistingcareers.org/medical-assisting-careers-information/licensed-practical-nurse-careers-duties-salary-and-job-description">Licensed Practical Nurse</a> or Registered Nurse, obtaining the Bachelor of science in nursing degree can open up new doors in your career.</p>
<div id="attachment_138" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://www.massagetherapycollege.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/nursing.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-138" title="Nursing Degree" src="http://www.massagetherapycollege.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/nursing-150x150.jpg" alt="Nursing Degree" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nursing Degree</p></div>

<p>Then, how much licensed nurse make?  Currently, bachelor degree in nursing in any specialty can increase your income potential. Registered Nurses with Bachelor of science in nursing degree can enjoy significantly higher salaries than RNs and LPNs who do not hold Bachelor of science in nursing degree. A  Bachelor of science in nursing degree increases RNs annual salary by about $6,000.</p>

<p>When someone develops an infection at a hospital or other patient care facility that they did not have prior to treatment, this is referred to as a Healthcare-Associated (sometimes hospital-acquired) Infection (<a href="http://www.haiwatch.com/HAIIssues.aspx?Region=US">HAI</a>).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.haiwatch.com/HAIIssues.aspx?Region=US">Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs)</a> are a global crisis affecting both patients and healthcare workers.</p>
<p>According to the World Health Organization (WHO), at any point in time, 1.4 million people worldwide suffer from infections acquired in hospitals.</p>
<p><span id="more-128"></span></p>
<p>A Centers for Disease Control (CDC) report published in March-April 2007 estimated the number of U.S. deaths from healthcare associated infections in 2002 at 98,987.</p>
<p>The risk of acquiring <a href="http://www.haiwatch.com/HAIIssues.aspx?Region=US">Healthcare-Associated Infections</a> in developing countries is 2-20 times higher than in developed countries.</p>
<p>Afflicting thousands of patients every year, <a href="http://www.haiwatch.com/HAIIssues.aspx?Region=US">HAI</a> often leads to lengthened hospital stays, increasing the likelihood of readmission, and adding sizably to the cost of care per patient.</p>
<p>Financially, HAIs represent an estimated annual impact of $6.7 billion to healthcare facilities, but the human cost is even higher.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>About Not on My Watch Prevention Campaign</strong></p>
<p>To protect patients by reducing the risk of HAI, healthcare professionals must continually update their knowledge of infection management.</p>
<p>As part of an ongoing commitment to quality care and infection prevention, nationwide doctors and hospitals are partnering with Kimberly-Clark to deliver continuing education programs on Healthcare-Associated Infection (HAI) prevention to staff and management. As simple as education sounds, busy doctors and nurses on the front lines of delivering care can find it difficult to find the time to take advantage of scheduled programs within their hospitals.</p>
<p>The HAI Education Program is part of a national infection awareness campaign for healthcare professionals called “Not on My Watch” and will provide the facility with a toolkit that contains informational flyers, patient safety tips and posters.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Not on My Watch&#8221; campaign provides accredited continuing education (CE) programs based on best practices and guidelines as well as research available on reducing the incidence of Healthcare-Associated Infections.</p>
<p>For details about the &#8220;Not On My Watch&#8221; campaign, and the HAI Education Bus please visit <a href="http://www.haiwatch.com/">www.HAIwatch.com</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Join the <a href="http://haiwatchdog.com/">community</a></strong> of healthcare professionals concerned with preventing Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs), which at any given moment seriously affect 1.4 million hospitalized patients worldwide. The <a href="http://haiwatchdog.com/">HAI WATCHDOG* Community forums</a> are intended to provide a place for healthcare providers to discuss issues and best practices related to Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs).<br />
<a href="http://www.kimberly-clark.com/">Kimberly-Clark</a> is committed to helping win the battle to prevent HAIs. As part of that effort, we are pleased to sponsor this <a href="http://haiwatchdog.com/">community site</a> for healthcare providers to discuss HAIs without mention of product-specific information.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you ask people what is their number one way to relax, chances are they will say getting a massage is their preferred thing to do. It is not surprising therefore that so many people want to learn the art of massage, so they are able to give to someone ultimate pleasure, relief and relaxation.</p>
<p>But what exactly is massage you may ask? Well, in technical terms it is the manipulation of superficial layers of muscle and connective tissue. By doing this you enhance the function of your muscles and at the same time it encourages the individual to feel relaxed and well.</p>
<p>A lot of people think they are pretty good at massage and are more than happy to give it a go. Sometimes when you have a stiff neck, instead of visiting a doctor or speaking to your healthy insurance provider <a href="http://www.aviva.co.uk/health/" target="_blank">http://www.aviva.co.uk/health/</a> or whoever it is , straight away people will give massage a go. However it is really essential that you visit a trained masseuse, as they are able to use the right techniques to help get you back to fighting form.</p>
<p>There are a number of massage methods which you are able to learn and you can choose to specialise in a certain one, depending on what you go on to do after you have trained. For example you may become an athletic trainer or a physical therapist.</p>
<p>The most well known methods include the following. Acupressure, which is a traditional Chinese medicine technique, that is applied to acupuncture points on the body. Then there is the Japanese traditional massage, Anma. Ayurvedic, which is derived from India, Balinese, Barefoot deep tissue, Bowen therapy, Breema, Champissage, Deep tissue massage, thai massage, stone massage and a wide range of others.</p>
<p>Training with us will give you the opportunity to hone your skills and become a successful masseuse. Please browse the rest of our website to learn more about our massage therapy college.</p>
