In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Maureen A. Madden, DNP, RN, CPNP-AC, CCRN, FCCM, speaks with James R. Rodrigue, PhD, FAST, and Richard D. Hasz, MS, about their article, “Racial Equity in Family Approach for Patients Medically Suitable for Deceased Organ Donation,” published in the December 2024 issue of Critical Care Medicine. The study found racial equity in organ procurement organization (OPO) family approach among patients who were medically eligible for organ donation. Dr. Rodrigue and Mr. Hasz explain that previous studies showing racial disparity in family approach were based on 25- to 30-year-old data. The changes in organ donation systems since then were what motivated Dr. Rodrigue and Mr. Hasz to conduct new research. Their findings highlight the positive impact of standardized OPO practices on equitable access to organ donation opportunities. Dr. Rodrigue and Mr. Hasz emphasize the importance of timely referral, family-centered communication, and coordination between hospital teams and OPOs in facilitating donation conversations during emotionally charged moments. These practices complement advances in technology and expanded donor eligibility criteria to make more donations possible. Integrating organ donation information into driver education programs and expanding registration opportunities to settings such as voter registration can also help increase awareness and informed consent, especially among young people.

We had minimal technology, no standardized training, and often tracked our work on spreadsheets and narrative notes. The broader healthcare team didn't always understand navigation, so educating colleagues in defining our role was essential. Today, navigation is becoming a well-established specialty. It's recognized by the Commission on Cancer, supported by [Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services] reimbursement codes, and integrated across diverse care settings. It's backed by evidence, standardized training, and emerging technologies that improve both patient care and program sustainability. I'm proud to have witnessed and contributed to the incredible evolution, and I'm excited for what's next in advancing navigation to better support patients and families.” TS 6:20 Gordon: “When I was first introduced to the [clinical trial nurse] role, there weren't published competencies in order to learn the role or any real standardization of the role. And so when you worked in clinical trials, you kind of picked up things from the providers, from the other investigators on how you should operationalize the role. We've seen that evolve. We've seen ONS develop competencies, ONS come out with the clinical trial nursing manual. And our organization has been able to use those tools to standardize the practice of the clinical trial nurse across our institution. So we take those competencies, and they are the foundation of our program. And we've been able to build our program over the last decade, mostly by the use of the tools that ONS has and the ability to share knowledge.” TS 14:22 Fields: “For nurses, many of my colleagues are going on to get master's in things other than nursing. They're getting master's in public health. They're getting master's in business. I have a colleague who is in [information technology], and so we should not limit ourselves. We should expand ourselves. And the more varied degrees that we have, we are more viable candidates for positions. I was never a clinical nurse specialist, even though that was my goal, but I have done above and beyond what I ever anticipated that I would do. And there are so many more new degrees for us to make us viable in this changing environment.” TS 28:30 Turner: “It is vital that the current generation of oncology nurse practitioners take the lead to mentor the next generation. The next generation needs to be educated regarding the importance of oncology nurse practitioners, filling those critical gaps in health care by caring for patients in rural areas and those areas where healthcare resources are scarce. Technology should be utilized to bring oncology care—for example, office visits, imaging, and treatments—closer to those areas where patients live further away or have difficulty accessing transportation and health care. This will provide continuity of care.” TS 32:42

  “One powerful, overlooked aspect of colorectal cancer survivorship is the emotional and identity transformation that our survivors undergo—and really how little space is given in the clinical arena for that. No one really talks about this ‘invisible recovery.' Facing mortality can lead to prolonged changes is values, relationships, and life goals. And these experiences aren't captured in lab results or imaging scans, but they really shape how survivors live, love, and heal and continue with their lives,” ONS member Kris Mathey, DNP, APRN-CNP, AOCNP®, gastrointestinal medical oncology nurse practitioner at The James Cancer Hospital of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about colorectal cancer survivorship.

Highlights From This Episode “As of the most recent data, more than 1.5 million people in the United States are living as colorectal cancer survivors. So this includes not only those who are currently undergoing active cancer treatment but also those who have completed treatment and ultimately are hopefully in remission. Just a reminder that colon cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States and it's the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths.” TS 1:53 “Our colorectal cancer survivors may have significant barriers when receiving this comprehensive survivorship care, and these challenges can affect not only their physical recovery but their emotional well-being and, ultimately, their long-term health outcomes. We as oncology nurses do play a pivotal role in identifying and addressing these barriers. So these can include fragmented care. Who's caring for these patients? That care coordination between the oncologist and the oncology team and then the primary care providers and team. Limited access—so our patients that may have geographic limited access or also financial- or insurance-related obstacles to follow-up services.” TS 9:10 “Our nurses can also facilitate the communication between specialists and primary care providers, so making sure that we're sending records, keeping those lines of communications open. Also, nurses can provide that psychosocial support, so our screening for distress and also advocating and supporting for referral to counseling or support groups for a patient. Nurses can also act as navigators to guide these patients through complex care systems.” TS 11:21 “Some of the recommended changes—nutrition—enhancing and emphasizing fruits, vegetables, that colorful plate, with whole grains. Limit those red and processed meats, and reduce sugary drinks and alcohol. I know we will all have those patients who have read things or cancer myths about, ‘Oh, cancer feeds on sugar, so I shouldn't drink anything or eat anything with sugar,' and maybe addressing that, just really emphasizing the well-rounded meals.” TS 19:57 “When we think about [ourselves], ‘Well, I don't have an implicit bias,' but we may not think about what that is. Some common preconceived assumptions are that survivorship equals a cure. And this assumption may overlook that chronic symptoms or those late effects and emotional needs of long-term survivors. So knowing that when a patient is coming to us on surveillance, they may be cured; they may not have active cancer, but they're still dealing with some of those chronic symptoms—and acknowledging that.” TS 30:37 “There's an assumption that an ostomy equals poor quality of life, and this may stigmatize patients and discourage open conversations about adaptation and support. A couple weeks ago, I volunteered at the Pan Ohio Hope Ride, which is with the American Cancer Society, and several states have a ride that's similar. And there was a patient riding, and I could tell over his jersey that he had an ostomy bag underneath that. And I just looked at him and I thought, ‘That's amazing. You are still functioning, still living, still riding a bike throughout the entire state of Ohio with an ostomy.' So he's still having that good quality of life. That doesn't stop him from living.” TS 31:39

In this conversation, Brigitte Sager DNP discusses the evolving landscape of functional nursing, emphasizing the importance of nurses as advocates for change in healthcare. She highlights the need for a shift towards a more holistic approach to patient care, where nurses can utilize their skills to address root causes of health issues. The discussion also covers the significance of certification in functional nursing, the establishment of a supportive community for nurses, and the future of functional nursing education.

In this episode of Caring Greatly, Amanda Choflet, DNP, RN, NEA-BC, Dean of Nursing at Northeastern University, shares the path that led her to studying mental health, substance use and suicide risk among clinicians. Dr. Choflet's research underscores the importance of creating access to mental health care and substance use resources that center around human-centered care and wellbeing rather than starting from a punitive or disciplinary stance. Because actions speak louder than words, Dr. Choflet shares evidence-based interventions that healthcare leaders can use to create work environments where clinicians feel safe and supported.

Welcome to Episode 50 of the HPNA Palliative Perspective podcast—a meaningful milestone, and one that gave us pause to reflect on the incredible leaders who've shaped the hospice and palliative care space. In early conversations about this episode, we considered dedicating it to Betty Ferrell, a visionary in the field and the longtime Editor-in-Chief of JHPN, the Journal of Hospice and Palliative Nursing.  But, in true Betty fashion, those close to her reminded us she prefers to stay out of the spotlight. So instead, we're honoring her legacy in a way we think she'd appreciate: by celebrating the educators.  In this episode, we're shining a light on the hospice and palliative nurse educators featured in an upcoming issue of JHPN—innovators who are creating new programs and pushing boundaries in their Schools of Nursing to bring both primary and specialty palliative care to the forefront of nursing education. Their work is not only advancing the field but also shaping the future of compassionate care.  Join Andra Davis, PhD, MN, RN, and Megan Lippe, PhD, MSN, RN, ANEF, FPCN®, FAAN—guest editors of the November issue of JHPN—as they share powerful insights on preparing the next generation of nurses in hospice and palliative care. Educating future nurses requires more than just a solid curriculum—it demands mentorship, creativity, and a deep, ongoing commitment. In this episode, we explore why palliative care is no longer a “nice to have,” but a necessity in nursing education. From shifts in accreditation standards to real-world bedside challenges, Drs. Davis and Lippe discuss the essential role faculty and mentors play in helping students navigate the emotional, clinical, and human complexities of whole person care. We also explore how practicing nurses can be part of this movement—supporting learners and strengthening the future of compassionate care.   Podcast Notes/Links  JPHN Article, releasing in Nov— https://journals.lww.com/jhpn/pages/default.aspx   Betty Ferrell, speaking at HPNA Annual Conference, link  Scope, Standards and Competencies for the Hospice & Palliative RN & APRN, link  The Corner https://www.aacnnursing.org/elnec/elnec-faculty-corner      Megan Lippe, PhD, MSN, RN, ANEF, FPCN®, FAAN Dr. Lippe is Associate Professor with tenure at the University of Texas Health San Antonio and a national leader in palliative nursing education.

While some nurses already serve in elected office, their numbers are far too few, and our communities are missing out. In this SEE YOU NOW Insight from Episode 95: Nursing Is Political, Kimberly Gordon, DNP, CRNA, co-founder of Healing Politics, makes a powerful case for why more nurses should run for public office. Drawing on their holistic training, problem-solving skills, and deep understanding of the social factors that shape health, nurses are uniquely equipped to serve on school boards, city councils, and in state legislatures. Kimberly shares how nurse voices in policy-making could transform decisions on issues like school safety, public health, and community well-being, and why public service should be part of nursing's culture of care.  To listen to this Insight clip's full episode visit SEE YOU NOW Podcast Episode 95: Nursing is Political at APPLE, SPOTIFY, YOUTUBE or at your favorite streaming platform.

Two years after introducing listeners to Healing Politics, with Episode 95: Nursing is Political, Kimberly Gordon, DNP, CRNA, returns along with co-founder Lisa Summers, BSN, MSN, DrPH, with sobering research and renewed urgency about nurses' political participation.   When more nurses are civically engaged, communities are healthier. Why? Because legislative decisions shape everything from healthcare access to public health funding, and nurses' holistic, community-based perspective gives them a unique view into both the problems people face and the solutions needed to address them. Research shows that nurse legislators consistently outperform their peers in crafting evidence-based healthcare policy, achieving bipartisan collaboration, and delivering measurable health outcomes for their constituents (ScienceDirect).  Yet without more nurses in elected office, these critical insights rarely reach the legislative process.  In this episode, Gordon and Summers share how Healing Politics has evolved since launching the first campaign school designed specifically for nurses and midwives. Beyond preparing candidates to run for office, their mission has expanded to strengthen civic engagement through partnerships with VoteER, Fair Vote, and Power to the Polls. Together, this bipartisan duo reflects on the vital distinction between politics and policy, and unveil their new state-based liaison strategy designed to scale their impact and increase nurse representation at every level of government.  Because when nurses step into the halls of power, they don't just change policy, they change lives.
