Nov 22, '12 by MBARNBSN. Talk to the hiring manager at the hospital where you work or a former nursing employer. Ask that person if there are openings, let him/her know of your interest, and ask how you would be considered for an entry level position. That is the best way to get into Case Management. Good luck.
Approach Considerations. Fracture management can be divided into nonoperative and operative techniques. The nonoperative approach consists of a closed reduction if required, followed by a period of immobilization with casting or splinting.
1 This is a procedure that is called 'fracture reduction.' Because the fracture is being surgically repositioned, this is considered an open reduction. This would contrast with a closed reduction where the bones are repositioned without a surgical procedure.  Second, is an internal fixation. This means the repositioned bones are held in the proper alignment with some type of implant. Common surgical implants used to hold broken bones include metal plates and screws, and rods in the hollow center of the bone (called an intramedullary rod).
