Neonatal Hydrotherapy and Therapeutic Bathing in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
To a newborn, neonatal units appear exceedingly loud, astonishingly bright, unbelievably chaotic and intermittently painful. Providers do everything they can to maximize the peace and comfort of their charges, but only so much can be done. So, any technique which can reduce pain, decrease physical stressors, induce sleep, and increase hunger and the tendency to suck…. all without robbing the infant of energy, is like a gift from the NICU gods.

From Accident to Ambulance: Emergency Action Plans for the Injured Athlete
Emergency management of injuries in sport should be handled by a trained medical professional. An emergency action plan (EAP) is necessary for any school or university with venues where athletes exercise. An emergency action plan should be specific to your organization, venues, resources, and personnel. Sports medicine professionals must be competent in developing, implementing, and reviewing EAPs to protect athletes and reduce liability for the individual healthcare professional and institution. The instructor will provide an overarching review of the literature regarding the management of establishing emergency action plans to allow the participant to become proficient in establishing procedures and identifying personnel and resources to create EAPs.
