108: Investing in Nurses! Leadership & Care Transformation May 31, 2024

Show notes

Despite broad awareness and agreement on the need for massive and urgent investment in nursing to transform our complex health and care systems, the American Nurses Foundation's Philanthropic Support for the Nursing Profession report revealed that nursing receives just one penny of every healthcare philanthropy dollar. In this third and final episode in our series of rare, in-depth unscripted conversations with philanthropists, fundraisers, program managers, executive directors, grantees, and innovators we explore the creative, strategic, and evidence-based approaches to investing and fostering nurses as drivers of transformative, systemic change in health systems.

In conversations with Marion Leary, PhD, MPH, RN, Director of Innovation at the University of Pennsylvania's School of Nursing, Howard Reid, Johnson & Johnson Global Head of Global Health Equity, and Ahrin Mishan Executive Director of The Rita and Alex Hillman Foundation, we hear the connection between nurses as catalysts in care delivery transformation and investments in leadership programming and the concern that without addressing the current and significant workplace stresses, the attrition of well trained, skilled nurses from the profession will continue.

Through strategic, targeted, and enduring investments that evolve alongside changing workforce needs, programs like the Hillman Foundation's nurse innovation grants, Design Thinking for Health, Johnson & Johnson's Nursing Innovation Fellowship, and NurseHack4Health demonstrate their powerful impact on career growth, longevity, and preparing nurses in taking on leadership roles within their institutions, in the broader health care sector, and at all levels of public policy. These thought leaders encourage more funders to look at nursing as an investment in accelerating the improvement of our healthcare systems and make clear that nurses are best positioned to identify, implement, and disseminate innovative strategies to advance health care access, quality and equity.

105: Fostering Kids ❤️ Fostering Families May 01, 2024

Show notes

Our kids are not okay. Social isolation, technology use, and mental health conditions like anxiety and depression are all spiking for children and teens. The US Surgeon General's Advisory on Protecting Youth Mental Health conveys, "the challenges today's generation of young people face are unprecedented and uniquely hard to navigate. And the effect these challenges have had on their mental health is devastating" and has had an outsized impact on youth in foster care. In the U.S. nearly half a million children are in foster care every year, many of whom experience trauma, instability, separation, loss, and neglect. As Foster Care Awareness and Mental Health Awareness both fall in May we're amplifying their messages and learning how foster care and mental health are powerfully connected through the "Foster Care to PhD" lived and professional experiences of nurse practitioner and foster care survivor Sharrica Miller, PhD, RN.

In this episode, Sharrica offers an unvarnished account of the foster care experience; discusses how nurses can use their advocacy and clinical skills to collaborate with social services to protect and provide stability for children in foster care; and shares her research, mentoring, and advocacy for legislative and policy changes to improve the child welfare system, ensuring their health and well-being as they transition out of foster care.

104: Practicing Green Health Apr 22, 2024

Show notes

Imagine – healthy people living in equitable and resilient communities on a thriving planet! That's the vision of Practice Greenhealth, a sustainability network delivering environmental solutions to more than 1,700 hospitals and health systems in the US and Canada. Healthcare sustainability is important work – if the healthcare sector were a country, it would be the fifth largest carbon emitter on the planet. The impact of environmental factors on human health is apparent now more than ever. The World Health Organization estimates that improved environmental conditions could prevent nearly a quarter of global diseases, citing climate change as a global public health threat. Healthcare leaders are recognizing the operational, strategic, financial and health equity importance of sustainability and resilience practices and taking impressive action in reducing their organization's environmental footprint, waste, greenhouse gas emissions, and more. In this episode, we learn from clinical experts and sustainability champions Shanda Demorest DNP, RN, PHN, Jonathan Perlin MD, PhD, Jessica Wolff MBA, MSN, Emma Pascale Blakey PhD, RN, and Beth Schenk PhD, MHI, RN-BC how healthcare as a sector is leaning into the generational demand and momentum for environmental stewardship in healthcare and about the vast array of tools, resources, and examples of practicing green health sustainably.

Listen Again | 72: Marathons with Meaning Apr 10, 2024

Show notes

We're cheering on runners in the 2024 Boston Marathon this week by having another listen to our episode featuring Nurse Practitioner, elite runner, and Guinness World Record holder, Samantha Roecker, FNP. A competitive runner and nurse, she has a *track record* (pun intended) of breaking barriers and addressing stigmas, and for the 2022 Boston Marathon, she combined her passion for nursing and running into mental health advocacy and raising awareness for healthcare workforce well-being. Inspired by British nurse and marathon record holder, Jessica Anderson, Sam embarked on a bold goal – breaking the Guinness World Record for fastest marathon run in a nurse's uniform and raising thousands of dollars to support nurse well-being. In this episode, we talk with Samantha about her record-breaking run, the impact stigma has on seeking mental health services and preventing people from reaching their potential, the power of nurse-specific mental health support, and the surprising overlap between nursing and competitive running.

Update | 96: Addressing Moral Distress Across the Healthcare Workforce Mar 28, 2024

Show notes

March 2024 marks two years since President Biden signed into law the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act. This landmark, first-of-its-kind legislation has funded more than $100 million in grants to implement strategies to reduce and prevent burnout, stress and suicide, sustain well-being, and build workplace cultures and practices so our healthcare workforce can thrive.

The law and the recent bipartisan resolution designating March 18th as Health Workforce Well-Being Day of Awareness is keeping the spotlight and urgency on this workforce crisis and helping reduce stigma, advance research, and ensure that those who care for us can get the care they need.

So we're having another listen to this episode recorded Live at Aspen Ideas: Health in 2023 where an expert panel led by nurse economist Shawna Butler, RN, MBA, vividly describes how many of our health workplaces and practices are exhausting, overly burdensome, and causing moral distress. Kathy Howell, MBA, BSN, RN, NEA-BC, former Chief Nurse Executive, UCHealth; Corey Feist, President and Co-Founder, Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes' Foundation; and Iman Abuzeid, CEO and Co-Founder, Incredible Health, provide insight into what healthcare talent is seeking from their careers, how forward-leaning health executives are responding to market conditions and workforces that have dramatically shifted, and the readily available system level policy changes urgently needed to support and sustain a thriving health workforce.

103: Women Making History Mar 18, 2024

Show notes

Women's History Month celebrates women's achievements, acknowledging notable women in history and the important role they've played across societies, industries, and culture. There is perhaps no greater source of women's history-making and contributions to society, science, and social systems than healthcare and the nursing profession with its historically high representation of women among its ranks. In 2024 Women's History Month focuses on those women who have and continue to advocate for equity, diversity, and inclusion, and SEE YOU NOW is filled with stories of women making an impact across these dimensions.

In this episode, the SEE YOU NOW team digs into our past episodes to highlight women who have and continue to shape history and share our perspectives on why the work of these women -- many of whom are using their nursing superpowers -- to identify, advocate, and hasten equity and representation creates a better future for all and a writes a history that carries forward these important lessons, roadmaps, and contributions.

102: Healthier Policies for Healthier People Feb 29, 2024

Show notes

While not always obvious, the invisible hand of policy is ever-present, shaping our lives, and impacting our health. Much of a nation's most significant disparities and inequities are rooted in policy decisions that, intentionally or unintentionally, limit access to healthcare, education, transportation, nutrition, childcare and more. The good news: Policy is also one of the most impactful avenues for driving progress toward the health and wellbeing of every citizen. In this episode, we meet nurse Vincent Guilamo-Ramos, PhD, MPH, LCSW, RN, executive director of The Institute for Policy Solutions at the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, a new institute working to redesign the US healthcare system with the goal of shifting policy and practice to more preventive, value-based and whole-person care. Based in Washington, D.C., right down the street from the U.S. Capitol, Guilamo-Ramos shares the Institute's mission of teaching, research, and convening, and its deep commitment to social welfare, social justice, and public health, as well as the essential role nurses play in shaping solutions, policy, and systems to improve health for every community and every citizen.
