RN Pathways Celebrates National Nurses Day With Launch of New Digital and Human Network Focused on Helping More Nurses

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) May 6, 2009

Today marks National Nurses Day and the beginning of National Nurses' Week; this year's theme is "Nurses: Building a Healthy America." RN Pathways, one of the most unique nursing organizations in the United States, is celebrating with the launch a new network to further its mission of helping nurses build healthy careers.

"We chose to bring this new resource to the world on National Nurses Day because helping nurses and their families is our passion," said RN Pathways spokesperson Joe Cockrell. "Now more than ever, nurses want more than just a listing of jobs on a static job board- they want personal expert advice and guidance. RN Pathways provides that in a way that is already changing the industry."

The website is one component of a unique digital and human network that RN Pathways has formed over the last several months- especially by incorporating social media platforms (such as Facebook and Twitter) into daily communication with nurses who seek career advice.

"We offer solutions for nurses no matter what their preference- whether that be email and online communication or live conversations with a real person," Cockrell said. "With today's technology, those live conversations no longer have to be on the phone; we've seen a dramatic increase in veteran-level nurses engaging in social media online- soon we'll be connecting with just as many nurses on Facebook as we are over the phone."

As part of the celebration, RN Pathways also launched contest where nurses who register as new users on the RNpathways.com website can win an iPod touch. In addition, there is an online promotion for those who want to salute nurses during National Nurses Week; you can win a new MacBook

Medical Pronunciations App Celebrates One Year Anniversary and Announces Major Updates

New York, NY (PRWEB) October 31, 2011

SayMedicines iOS application, Medical Pronunciations, was released for iPhone and iTouch exactly one year ago. The unique medical dictionary allows users to easily lookup audio pronunciations of complex medical terms and drugs.

Over the past twelve months, the application has been sold in over 20 countries worldwide and has become a popular reference tool within the healthcare community. The app features approximately 10,000 professionally recorded audio pronunciations and autofill search functionality. It also allows the users to easily research the words online with a built-in browser that automatically retrieves data from WikiPedia, eMedicine, and Google.

Since its release last October, SayMedicine has expanded to the Android platform with the Pharmacology Pronunciations app and have added several new features, including one that allows the users to record and add new words.

We are constantly working to improve our applications based on the feedback we receive from our users. Over the next few months, well be adding some awesome features and including over 50,000 new words to the library, said Santhosh Cherian, the founder of SayMedicine.

The company has set a one year goal to expand the apps library to include virtually all drug names and medical terms. The update set to be released in a month will include a platform that automatically downloads new words each time the application is launched. This is convenient for users because SayMedicine is planing on adding new audio files on a weekly basis.

Before the end of the year SayMedicine's Medical Pronunciations application will also be released for Android and Mac OSX. The current "Pharmacology Pronunciations" app for Android will be discontinued and replaced by the complete version. Also, a new login feature will allow users to access their bookmarks and custom words from multiple devices.

SayMedicine has not released an updated price on the the new apps. However, the app currently sells for $ 4.99 in the iTunes app store and anyone who purchases the app before the new update is entitled to free updates.
