    Ask Nurse Alice

    Health is personal. Healthcare is complicated. And sometimes you just need someone to help you make sense of it all.

    Ask Nurse Alice is where we talk about the health issues that actually affect your life, from the latest medical news and changing healthcare policies to prevention, medications, mental health, relationships, aging, caregiving, and the everyday choices that influence how you feel.

    Each week, Nurse Alice breaks down what’s happening in health and healthcare in a way that’s clear, relatable, and useful. What does that new study really mean for you? Should you be concerned about the health story everyone is talking about? What questions should you be asking at your next appointment? And how do you take better care of yourself when work, family, and life keep competing for your attention?

    You’ll hear candid conversations with experts, newsmakers, and celebrity guests, along with personal conversations about the parts of health we don’t always talk about enough. Nothing is off the table when it comes to helping you better understand your body, your health and the healthcare system you depend on.

    Some episodes will teach you something. Some will make you rethink something. Others may simply remind you that taking care of yourself deserves a place on your to-do list, too.

    Real talk. Real health. Real life.

    Ask Nurse Alice gives you the information, conversations, and practical takeaways to help you become a more informed and confident participant in your own health.
