About Nurses Neighborhood

Who are we

My name is Jackie, I am from Canada and now live in Texas. I have been a nurse for many years and have worked in a variety of setttings. My experiences include nursing homes, and hospital units such as pediatrics, newborn nursery, neonatal intensive care, combined care, day medicine, and surgery. I have also worked for clinics as a telephone triage nurse in adult and pediatrics. I have worked in home health settings as both visit nurse, private duty nurse and supervisor/case manager. I have also worked as an insurance pediatric and neonatal case manager and a hospital based case manager.



How did I get here

I am currently working on my bachelors degree in nursing through an online program. Throughout this program I have spent numerous hours researching and reading websites and articles. It occured to me that having some of these tools I have collected along the way may be beneficial to other nursing students.

Another thing that was helpful was sharing reference lists with other students. We often take different quotes out of the article so it is helpful to share. Utilizing the references from the articles also helps to find more articles that may be beneficial. So I am sharing some of my reference pages from my nursing assignments and papers.

With the online program, a discussion forum is utilized as a classroom chat of sorts. These posts also require references, often from professional websites. Again, a list of these resources should be helpful to future students.

I also hope to add forums to discuss some of these assignments that are a norm among the different programs.

My future plans

I have been looking into starting a nursing business of some type for many years. I have been contemplating several ideas. So, while I decide on a definite plan and work on my nursing classes I decided to first start a website.

One helpful website about building a nursing business is the Nurse Entrepreneur network Read more here. They offer a variety of resources and tools that have been helpful.

While researching how to start a business I found SBI. I have started my website, talking about what I already know, nursing and nursing classes. I plan to expand my site a great deal, but with school it is a slow process. SBI gives me all of the tools I need to create this site. I did not know how to build a website, I did not know any html. I am learning, but with SBI I don't have to. If I can do this anyone can.

SBI now offers monthly or yearly subscriptions.
