Dental Insurance Plans, Consumer Information Sites:

Choosing and Using Dental Benefits! Selecting and Using Dental Benefits, California Dental Association:"When most people think about health insurance, they first think about covering the costs of treatment for serious medical conditions or accidents. That's a natural thing to do. But there is another type of insurance that is equally important to your well-being —dental insurance. Because dental disease is so common, being protected by dental insurance and using it wisely are essential safeguards for you and your family. Unlike medical disease, which can be both unpredictable and catastrophic, most dental ailments are preventable. Preventive care, including regular checkups and cleanings, is the key to maintaining your oral health."

Digesting the alphabet soup of dental insurance by Dr. Jerry Gordon, HowStuffWorks.com:"Understanding the alphabet soup of dental insurance plans can be a difficult endeavor for most people. Two common insurance acronyms include PPO and HMO. Managed care plans are often either PPO or HMO, standing for preferred provider organization and health maintenance organization. With PPO insurance plans, the companies negotiate fee schedules with dentists in exchange for the dentist being put on a list of "preferred" providers. Employers give the list to their employees to match them up with dentists who participate with the dental plan. Dental insurance can help people pay for dental treatment, but it has its limitations. Most insurance plans have a deductible of $50 to $100, pay only a specified percentage for each type of treatment, and have a yearly maximum amount of funds available for dental care."

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."

Nursing In The Media, Nursingadvocacy.org

  • ER:"Media products under your influence, particularly the NBC/Warner drama "ER," are harming the profession of 2.7 million American nurses by giving the public an inaccurate and inadequate account of what nurses really do to save and improve lives. Research suggests that "ER" strongly and negatively influences the way children view nursing. These products contribute to the nursing shortage, a public health crisis that threatens millions worldwide."

  • NBC's "Passions":"NBC's "Passions" solves nursing shortage: monkeys can do the job! Starting in March 2003 and at least as recently as late August, NBC's campy, supernatural daytime soap opera "Passions" has featured an orangutan named Precious in the role of the private duty nurse of one of its characters--a bold step backwards in the already slow...evolution...of the media's treatment of nurses. more..."

  • "Scrubs" defines nursing:""Scrubs" defines nursing: it's all about shutting up and following physician "orders. " November 20, 2003 -- Tonight's episode of NBC's "Scrubs," which purports to teach nurse Carla Espinosa that nursing is all about doing what physicians tell you, is one of the most virulently anti-nurse prime time television episodes the Center has ever seen. more..."
