ABSTRACT
We report four draft genome sequences related to the genera Bacillus and Escherichia, recovered from surfaces associated with human interaction, and Sediminibacterium, recovered from an aquatic environment. This study was part of an undergraduate microbial bioinformatics course at the State University of New York at Geneseo.
ABSTRACT
Two components of the Magnet Recognition Program® are exemplary professional practice and the generation of new knowledge through research and clinical innovation. Within Magnet® institutions, exemplary professional practice is evidenced by collaboration. Hospitals and schools of nursing can develop collaborative relationships to promote a culture of inquiry in clinical care and generate research to advance nursing practice and nursing science. The authors describe a collaborative model between clinical nurses and an academic nursing research center that promotes involvement of clinical nurses in research.

The objective of this study was to investigate the associations between the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) work environment, quality of care, safety, and patient outcomes. A secondary analysis was conducted of responses of 1247 NICU staff nurses in 171 hospitals to a large nurse survey. Better work environments were associated with lower odds of nurses reporting poor quality, safety, and outcomes. Improving the work environment may be a promising strategy to achieve safer settings for at-risk newborns.
