This week’s ProMed Network update features three very popular shows here on the network. Each program is a great look at an aspect of health, wellness and medical care in the community.

In this week’s Nursing Show, for nurses by nurses, (www.nursingshow.com) host Jamie Davis (aka the Podmedic) continues his series on psych patient assessment with a look at common defense mechanisms. Each week, this show for virtually every nurse you know looks at news, reviews, and commentary in the world of health care.

The excellent health educator, Greg Friese, brings us a preview of the upcoming National Association of EMS Educators (NAEMSE) symposium. If you haven’t checked out Greg’s show, the EMS Educast (www.EMSEducast.com), you are missing out of a host of tools for educators of all varieties and disciplines.

Roy, Dan, and Jody of iRescue Radio always have a good time on their show. Their show entitled “Fleas and Floods” is their latest installment of the show about professional rescuers and healthcare professionals in the emergency services. You’ll laugh, laugh and laugh some more while you hear about the “my dog has fleas” discussion.

If you haven’t checked out these or any of the other 35 programs by medical and health professionals just for other medical and health professionals. With programs on topics from psychology and counseling to neurology, virology, nursing care and more, the ProMed Network is your first stop for the best in independent care.

Featured this week on the ProMed Network are three diverse programs serving the health care community. If you haven’t found a program, podcast, or show here on the ProMed Network that speaks to your specialty in medicine, nursing, or health care then you aren’t trying very hard.

First off this week is the brand new show for nurses called Insights in Nursing. This panel discussion show speaks to nurses, students and educators about recent news and events related to the nursing profession. This week’s program looks at how hard nurses and other health care professionals really look at research articles when they are published. Panelist Amy Romano, author of the Science and Sensibility blog, comes on to talk about her hard look at some particularly flawed meta-analysis looking at mortality and morbidity in home births. The panel has a lot of fun discussing bias in the medical industry, among health care professionals, and the media.

The next featured show this week is the excellent Medical Spanish Podcast by Dr. Molly Martin. Recently, Doc Molly has been focusing on beginner spanish for the medical professional. This week’s show is on symptoms and communicating with the Spanish speaking patient to get a good history of the problem at hand. If you haven’t checked out this show related to this important need in the field, you are missing one of the gems of medical podcasting.

Finally, Chris Montera and the gang at the EMS Garage also produce an excellent show called the EMS Leadership Podcast. This week’s show looks at the economics and budgeting of emergency medical services for your community. If you are interested in the issues surrounding providing emergency medical and rescue services in your region this show will provide you with some insights into the problems faced by a community’s emergency planners.

Check back next week for more updates here at the ProMed Network blog.  In the meantime visit ProMedNetwork.com for nearly 40 programs for medical and health care professionals at all levels.

Education and learning resources abound here at ProMed. Many of the programs here on the ProMed Network offer valuable information for students as well as existing medical professionals.

As the semester winds down, many students are getting ready for finals.  The shows of the ProMed network are already in place to provide students in all of the medical and health career fields some of the resources they need to be successful in school.

Our nursing programs, Emergency Nursing Today and the Nursing Show are both highly informative and provide regular tips and reviews for students and existing nurses.  Both shows have a large number of students listening every week and those students are usually more successful than their non-podcast listening counterparts.
