The June issue of Nurses' Lounge-DFW is now available for viewing online!

This month's issue contains our National Nurses Week Round Up, featuring hospitals all over the metroplex and how they celebrated National Nurses Week with award ceremonies, festivals, galas and more.

For those readers looking for CE credit, our CE article, "Impact of Evidence Based Practices on Outcomes for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients," highlights the essential components of a collaborative effort in the hospital for rapidly identifying and treating patients with an ischemic stroke and leading efforts in preventing stroke reoccurrence using evidence-based guidelines.

This month's career profile explores Medical-Surgical nursing and the movement to change the field's name to Acute Care in an effort to boost its shrinking ranks. We talk with local Med-Surg nurses and nursing leaders about this career as a specialty and the specific demand in DFW for Med-Surg nurses.
