After investigation into a hepatitis C outbreak in Las Vegas revealed that nurses knew there were poor infection control practices but did nothing for fear of retaliation, the Nevada Nurses Association enlisted Lisa Black to survey Nevada nurses to determine their experiences and workplace attitudes about advocating for patients. AJN’s editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy, along with senior editor Sylvia Foley, discuss the results with Black, including the survey’s use in successful passage of whistleblower protection laws in Nevada. 
Although Denmark and the United States have very different health care systems, the nursing issues are remarkably similar. Editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy spoke with Grete Christensen about what the health and nursing issues are. 
Editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy speaks with Masitsela Mhlanga, former president of the Swaziland Nurses Association and the nurse credited with initiating the Swaziland Wellness Center for Health Care Workers. The center (which has now been replicated in other African countries) is credited for stemming the migration of nurses from Swaziland, which, with a prevalence of 26% of the adult population, has the highest prevalence of HIV in the world. 
AJN’s editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy interviews these flight nurses about their jobs, their career choices, and issues around providing care in a challenging environment.
