Really exciting to see this new nursing program at the University of Penn!
Exciting announcement! Penn Nursing is thrilled to launch our new Master of Professional Nursing (MPN) degree! This graduate-level program opens doors for bachelor's degree holders in other fields to embark on a rewarding nursing career: bit.ly/3DiGx6O.
Glad others are beginning to ask about how Hospital at Home programs acknowledge family caregivers and consider how the decision to receive acute hospital care in the home might affect them.
"We've got to look at the consequences for family caregivers," says @susanpolicy, SVP and director of @AARPpolicy, while discussing Hospital-At-Home Programs and their impact on the patient's family and #caregivers with @NPRHealth. #HospitalAtHome spr.ly/6013PuC1Z

#Medicare provides vital health care coverage to millions of adults 65. Yet contrary to common belief, the program does not cover all costs, causing many people with Medicare to face significant out-of-pocket expenses to meet their health care needs. spr.ly/6015P869D

It was good to be with @janesung to interview with CNBC about retirement. And of course @dcjretiresecure always adds so much to the discussion!
“By the time you’re about a decade away from #retirement, it’s a good idea to give some serious thought to your retirement goals while you’re still working and have time to build up your savings and make other arrangements.” @dcjretiresecure tells @CNBC. spr.ly/6013OtTVh
