Una Hopkins, DNP, MSN, FNP-BC, NE-BC, RN, FACCC, president of the Association of Cancer Care Centers (ACCC) designated her theme for the 2025-2026 year as Designing Oncology Care to Meet the Needs of a Growing Patient Population in response to forecasts predicting both patient and survivor populations will grow in coming years. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Dr. Hopkins about the importance of peer-to-peer mentorship in workforce development and empowerment, particularly for nurses, and why retired nurses are well-equipped to provide this mentorship. Later in the episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Josephine Lisowski, RN, BSN, OCN, PRN nurse at Advocate Health, who came out of retirement to fill a new role reducing burnout and increasing retention of oncology nurses. Throughout her career, Lisowski identified that a strong culture rooted in quality, patient safety, and excellence in nursing must be nurtured to avoid burnout. Upon retirement, she felt a pull to return towards mentoring and supporting younger oncology nurses to improve retention and job satisfaction. Lisowski will discuss how using a retired nurse for this mentorship role at Advocate Health lifted the burden on the main work force and combined generational strengths to enable nurses to provide the best care possible to patients. “We have to create spaces that are more psychologically safe for both our patients and our providers. I think that once we do that, we will see burnout change” - Dr. Hopkins “When you bring a retired nurse back again, it's meeting them where they are. They still want to share that knowledge that they have.” - Dr. Hopkins There's so much new innovation coming every day. But peer-to-peer, we can knock things between each other... It educates me and it educates them.” - Lisowski “I'm trying to encourage hospital management to keep the older nurses on at some point and not just have a whole new crew... In oncology, experience counts.” - Lisowski Una Hopkins, DNP, MSN, FNP-BC, NE-BC, RN, FACCC President, Association of Cancer Care Centers Director for Research and Evidence-Based Practice Montefiore Medical Center Bronx, New York Josephine Lisowski, RN, BSN, OCN PRN Nurse Advocate Health Park Ridge, Illinois Resources: Healthcare Burnout: An Epidemic Among Oncology Nurses Burnout Prevention & Education Mentoring Those New to Oncology Onboarding Experienced Non-Oncology Nurses to Address Staffing Shortages A Perfect Fit: Mentoring Experienced RNs to Meet Oncology Clinic Demand This podcast is part of a special series featuring ACCC members committed to the 2025-2026 ACCC President's Theme: Designing Oncology Care to Meet the Needs of a Growing Patient Population.
“When I was in medical school, no one had even heard of mitochondrial disease. Today, every student who graduates here knows what it is and has seen a patient with it,” says Dr. Mary Kay Koenig, director of the Center for the Treatment of Pediatric Neurodegenerative Disease at UTHealth Houston McGovern Medical School. That remarkable change in awareness has been accompanied by advances in genetic sequencing, the development of clinical guidelines, and the emergence of potential treatments in some forms of mitochondrial disease. In fact, Dr. Koenig's multidisciplinary team at UTHealth's Mitochondrial Center of Excellence has been a key player in clinical trials that may yield the first FDA-approved treatments for it. As you'll learn in this Year of the Zebra conversation with host Michael Carrese, her work in neurodegenerative diseases also includes tuberous sclerosis, where advanced therapies have replaced the need for repeated surgeries, and Leigh Syndrome, which has seen improvements in diagnoses and supportive therapies leading to better quality of life for patients. Tune in as Dr. Koenig reflects on an era of progress in the space, the rewards of balancing research, teaching and patient care, and the need for more clinicians to center listening, humility and honesty in their approach to caring for rare disease patients and their families.Mentioned in this episode:Mitochondrial Center of ExcellenceCenter for the Treatment of Pediatric Neurodegenerative Disease If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

“Giving learners options gives them a better learning experience. It's more holistic and more comprehensive,” says Sean Moloney, CEO and founder of EmbodyXR, an extended reality platform focused on the use of immersive technologies in medical education. In this eye-opening Raise the Line conversation, Moloney explains how AI-powered extended reality (XR) --which integrates augmented, virtual, and simulation-based environments -- allows learners to interact with patients, explore multiple diagnostic choices, and experience varied outcomes based on their decisions. The result, he notes, is not only stronger engagement in learning, but a measurable improvement in understanding. Despite these gains, Moloney is quick to point out that he sees these technologies as complements to traditional training, not substitutes for it. “We'll never replace in-person teaching,” he says, “but we can make learners even better.” Beyond training future clinicians, the EmbodyXR platform is also offering new modes of patient and caregiver education, such as augmented reality guidance for using medical devices at home. Join host Lindsey Smith as she explores how EmbodyXR achieves and maintains clinical accuracy, the connectivity it offers between headsets, personal computers and mobile devices, and other capabilities that are shaping the future of how healthcare professionals and patients will learn.

Crystal Tadlock, 35, was pulled over for speeding in Magnolia, Texas last Saturday morning. What followed was a conversation with a police officer about how much she'd been drinking, a series of field sobriety tests and her revelation that she was nurse and a new mom. After Tadlock's arrest, she told the officer she'd let him die if he came to her hospital for treatment. Tadlock also began to curse at the officer and questioned whether he was from another country due to his Latino last name.

This special "speedcast" episode captures a slice of life on the road as we step away from our usual format for something more spontaneous and raw.My conversation with Gabby Savino, a nursing manager at Elite (the agency that provides my personal care nurses), reveals the fascinating intersection of healthcare management and human connection. Gabby shares her journey from Scrubs-inspired nursing student to healthcare professional, including hilarious stories about my own nurse Natalia getting stuck in a snowy driveway and cursing like a sailor. Behind these lighthearted moments lies a deeper story about what draws people to caregiving professions – that perfect blend of scientific curiosity and genuine compassion.Surrounded by the diverse stories and experiences at the Abilities Expo, we both found ourselves reconsidering what we're thankful for – from the basics of shelter and sustenance to the complex systems of care and support that make life possible for those with different abilities. For me, witnessing the struggles many face with healthcare and insurance has been "eye-opening" and "humbling in the best possible way."Listen in to this unfiltered conversation that reminds us why human connection matters so much, especially in the healthcare world. And if you've enjoyed this departure from our usual format, let us know – these speedcasts might become a regular feature whenever Life to the Max hits the road!
Ahh, denial. We all have it at times. How does denial play a role at the end of life? As BK says, “We're a death-denying society, and we carry this denial inside on a level that I don't know that we're even aware of.” Combine that denial with the fact that caring for someone at the end of life is different than caring for someone who's going to get better. Where can we find healing when the body can no longer be healed? When we've done the best we can, but we can't fix the physical body, how do we have some quality time? And, why do people hold on at the end? This excellent conversation with Barbara Karnes, RN, explores denial, letting go, caregiving, finding meaning, and holding on.
I am one who considers Rodney Barnes a master storyteller when it comes to Horror. The man behind Killadelphia, Monarch, Batman Full Moon, and Blacula has a resume full of popular titles that makes him a must have when he releases a new comic. Today we speak about a story of the Crownsville Hospital in a suburb of Annapolis, this Psych Hospital from 1911 to 2004 was held under scrutiny for its treatment of African Americans through segregation, over crowding, mistreatment of patients, and Illegal Medical Experimentation. In fact, Mr. Barnes Grandmother he tells us worked there as a Nurse. This story is based on real life horrors the facility still stands today abandoned where security guards suspiciously hear screams from the building. This leads to this tale where Detective Mike Simms and Journalist Paul Blair set forth to investigate this land where the paranormal spirits are not only sympathetic victims but also Forces of Vengeance. Elia Bonetti gives a feel of nostalgia in each page as the setting is the 1970's.This is also the first book where Oni Press is debuting their new logo setting forth a new era in their company.Written by Rodney BarnesArtwork by Elia BonettiVariant cover by Jason Shawn AlexanderCrownsville debuts November 5thSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-faqs-project-hosted-by-james-grandmaster-faqs-boyce/donations
In this thought-provoking episode, I reconnect with Dr. Bones and Nurse Amy to discuss how both their personal preparedness journey and the broader prepper community have evolved over the years. We explore the significant shifts they've made as well as, insights about the challenges facing the preparedness economy. We also discuss the medical preparedness gaps that most preppers completely overlook. Dr. Bones and Nurse Amy make a compelling case for why dental emergencies, obstetric care, and even pet medical supplies deserve as much attention as trauma kits and tourniquets. They also tackle the tough questions about privacy in the modern surveillance age, the importance of physical fitness as a foundation for preparedness, and why using today's medical technology to fix problems before disaster strikes might be one of the smartest preparedness moves you can make. There is a lot of good stuff here! I hope you enjoy it!

Brigitte Sager, DNP answers that question and maps out the next steps for nurses who want to bring functional approaches into practice. She explains why functional nursing is more than a rebrand, how it reclaims nursing roles as healers, teachers, and leaders, and why nurses need clear scope, community, and clinical support to apply these concepts safely. Brigitte also shares details about the Institute for Functional Nursing, current CE courses, the membership community with live case reviews, and the full functional nursing program launching in early 2026. If you want practical training that is built by nurses for nurses, or if you are wondering how to integrate functional care into your setting, this episode explains how to get started and where to find mentorship and resources.

Send us a textToday, I'm honored to welcome on the podcast, Lori Schellenberg, a registered nurse with nearly 45 years of experience. Lori's career is a true testament to the power of embracing change. She began at the bedside and followed her curiosity into home health, occupational nursing, and workers' compensation—discovering along the way just how transferable nursing skills really are.Through her journey, Lori built partnerships, mentored colleagues, and helped healthcare businesses grow. When retirement left her seeking a new purpose, she turned her focus to patient advocacy, founding Stepping Stone Advocacy Services. And when she noticed nurses themselves struggling with burnout and limited career vision, she created the Stepping Stone Nurse Academy—a platform offering courses, mentorships, and internships to help nurses transition into fulfilling alternative careers.Lori's mission today is dual: to support patients navigating the healthcare system and to empower nurses to realize their untapped potential. In the five-minute snippet: I'd like to see this one on the big screen.

Why has America struggled so much to effectively manage the opioid use crisis? One of the answers, as you'll learn in this eye-opening episode of Raise the Line, is rooted in laws and attitudes from the early 20th century that removed addiction from the realm of medicine and defined it as a moral failing. “The federal Harrison Act of 1914 forbade any physician from prescribing opioids to people with addiction, so it became more the purview of law enforcement or behavioral health or religion,” says Dr. Melody Glenn, who regularly confronts the consequences of this history during shifts in the emergency department at Banner-University Medical Center in Tucson, Arizona. And as Glenn explains to host Caleb Furnas, the resulting stigma associated with addiction has extended to the treatments for it as well, especially methadone, despite its effectiveness. Drawing on her dual expertise in emergency and addiction medicine, Glenn dispels misconceptions that medication-assisted treatment merely replaces one addiction with another, and emphasizes that harm reduction is critical to saving lives. Her desire to break prevailing stigmas led her to discover the story of Dr. Marie Nyswander, who pioneered methadone maintenance therapy in the 1960s and is featured in Dr. Glenn's new book, Mother of Methadone: A Doctor's Quest, a Forgotten History, and a Modern-Day Crisis. You'll leave this instructive interview understanding the roots of our flawed approach to addiction treatment, meeting an overlooked pioneer in the field, and admiring a devoted and compassionate physician who is following in her footsteps.

Wellness Nurse Revolution: Alison Boser RN “Everybody wants their employees to be healthy, but being healthy…What does that mean? And that means different things to different people. It's not one size fits all. It's a really flexible, definition based on your stage of life, where you are. And I think an awareness of wellness as this sort of amorphous different things at different times for people would be fantastic. I think wellness, like capital W wellness, has a bit of a negative connotation that, you must be very thin and muscular and do hot yoga or something, but that's not it. You know, it's like walking your dog. It's your grandma who can carry your groceries into her house at 95 and she gets them after she goes and plays cards! It's strong communities. I'd love to see all of the skills from Nurse coaching and all the Nurse coaches ripple out like that.” ~Alison Boser, RNAH-HA MomentsFrom Trauma to Transformation: Alison shares her journey from emergency and travel nursing to creating her dream role as a Wellness Nurse—a position she literally spoke into existence.Wellness in Action: Learn how Alison supports hospital staff with coaching, crisis response, mindfulness, group programs, and even “7-minute weightlifting sessions” to make wellness accessible in busy hospital life.Healing the Healers: Through compassion, listening, and presence, she models what it means to show up for others—and herself—while advocating for sustainable, human-centered healthcare systems.Community & Connection: From workplace book clubs to environmental wellness initiatives like composting and recycling programs, Alison weaves community care into hospital culture.The Ripple Effect: By supporting one nurse at a time, the Wellness Nurse Revolution uplifts whole teams, reduces burnout, and redefines what health looks like inside healthcare.Links and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coach Certificate ProgramIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastSeverance by Ling MaAlison's LinkedInAlison's InstagramAlison's Substack*****Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

In this episode of The Healthy Mouth Movement Podcast, I sit down with nurse practitioner and functional medicine practitioner Andrea Rorabaugh—also known as Annie from Back to Our Roots—for a powerful conversation about getting back to the basics of true health. Andrea shares her personal journey from working in urgent care during the height of COVID to realizing that she wasn't truly healing patients—only temporarily making them feel better. That realization led her to functional medicine, where she helps families uncover the why behind chronic illness. We dive deep into the connection between genetics, nutrition, and oral health, discussing topics like MTHFR, folate vs. folic acid, heavy metal toxicity, gut health, and how the body's natural ability to heal starts with small foundational habits. Andrea and I talk about why our children are sicker than ever, what parents can do to support their kids' bodies naturally, and how oral health and functional medicine beautifully overlap when it comes to true prevention.

Or at least a friendly smile. :) Through our company, "Crooked Pine Media," we're jumpstarting the Still a Nurse (SaN) podcast, adding video, and are hard at work on our dreams of the resource this platform can become for friends anywhere on their nursing career journey.This video is a quick "hi" to let you know that despite the show having "coded," resuscitation was successful! And... now might be a good time to introduce Tristan's medically ignorant, but plucky sidekick, Husband Clay! (Please hold your applause; you'll only encourage him). If anything on the show is medically wrong, just so so wrong, or embarrassingly punny, you can be certain he's behind it.Welcome back (or for the first time) to Still a Nurse!
Nurse practitioner Elisabeth Evans discusses her article "The critical role of nurse practitioners in colorectal cancer screening." Elisabeth shares why colorectal cancer is the second-deadliest cancer in the U.S. yet remains under-screened, and why early detection can mean the difference between a 14 percent survival rate and over 90 percent. She highlights the lowered screening age, the role of public figures in raising awareness, and how nurse practitioners and physician associates can normalize conversations, provide multiple screening options, and ease patient fears. Elisabeth also discusses environmental risk factors, the importance of family history, and the potential of emerging technologies like blood-based screening. Listeners will take away strategies to better support patients, improve screening rates, and save lives through prevention and timely intervention. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.
