NurseWeek: Respect Breeds Contentment: Magnet hospitals tend to attract and retain nurses Hackensack Medical Center splashed its certification on roadside billboards, and Cedars-Sinai handed out free phone cards to its 1,200 nurses at the magnet award ceremony, telling them to "call their friends and tell them you work at a magnet hospital," Burnes Bolton said. Aiken was the lead author of a recent study that found nurses at the credentialing center’s 17 magnet hospitals had higher levels of job satisfaction and lower burnout rates, and gave the quality of care provided at their hospitals higher ratings than did nurses at other top hospitals in the country. While the UC Davis center had promoted magnet-like nursing values and programs for years, Robinson said the credentialing center’s lengthy certification process encouraged the staff to listen more carefully to floor nurses when making care decisions. www.nurseweek.com /features/00-05/magnet.html   (703 words)

Cedars-Sinai dumping hundreds of low income patients The California Nurses Association has sharply criticized state officials for establishing a dangerous precedent in approving tax-supported revenue bonds for the state's largest private hospital, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center of Los Angeles, which is dumping hundreds of its Medi-Cal patients, denying them access to available and much needed medical care. CNA challenged the bond approval, presenting evidence to the bond authority of a sharp drop in the number of Medi-Cal patients served by Cedars- Sinai after it terminated its Medi-Cal managed care patients, and how the hospital had also apparently violated the law relating to tax-supported bonds by failing to pass along savings to consumers. CNA first approached the bond authority after reviewing internal Cedars- Sinai documents that described the hospital's decision in the fall of 2003 to dump its Medi-Cal managed care patients. www.news-medical.net /?id=11717   (773 words)
