Healthy Heart Month

Heart disease is the number one killer of women in America.

In conjunction with Healthy Heart Month in February, the American Heart Association is launching the 2nd annual National Wear Red Day for women on February 4. Go Red for Women is the movement to give women the lifesaving powers to prevent this disease and have long, healthy futures.

Go Red for Women combines style with substance. Going red is more than a fashion statement – it’s the symbol of women and heart disease and of the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women movement. Wearing red is just the beginning of being a part of the Go Red for Women movement. You’ve got to start living a Go Red lifestyle by doing the things that will help you live a longer, stronger life.

Join the movement. Get a free Red Dress Pin. Go to the American Heart Association website for more information.

Critical Care Nurse Spotlight

In celebration of Critical Care Month, we take an up close and personal look at Favorite Nurse Lisa Young, an ICU/CCU nurse from Milwaukee.

Like many little girls, Lisa Young grew up playing nurse and dreaming of career in healthcare. When she first enrolled in college, she intended to pursue a degree in medicine. Eventually though, she decided that a career in nursing was her calling.

Lisa has worked in a variety of settings which include a small, rural ICU, an 11-bed neuro-surgical ICU, a 7-bed level I neuro-trauma ICU and a level II emergency department. She started working for Favorite full-time in October of 2000.

When asked what she enjoys about working for Favorite Staffing, she explained, “What I like about working for Favorite is the flexibility of my schedule. Having flexibility allows me time to pursue other interests and hobbies. I also enjoy the diversity of the populations that I see with the multiple hospitals that I have worked. I’ve had the opportunity to meet many new wonderful people and form new relationships, as well as opportunities to gain different perspectives on how to perform certain tasks or procedures.

“Favorite Staffing has been a great employer to me. I have enjoyed all the support from the Milwaukee office. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure that my needs are met. They are committed to their employees and really do care about their nurses. I would recommend Favorite Staffing to anyone!”

In her spare time, Lisa enjoys spending time with her boyfriend and his children, as well as her family and friends. She likes watching movies and reading. In the future, Lisa intends to pursue her Master’s degree.

To all the ICU/CCU nurses, Lisa says, “HAPPY CRITICAL CARE MONTH!”
