Have you ever wondered what it truly feels like walking into a hospital unit you've never seen before, with patients depending on you within hours of landing? Do you want a clear-eyed look at one of nursing's most sensitive topics, straight from someone who has lived it five times over?In this episode of Nursing Uncharted, host Ann sits down with Melisa, an ICU and NICU nurse turned strike assignment veteran, for an honest conversation about workforce disruptions. Melisa shares how she went from scrolling social media to boarding a flight in 48 hours, what it takes to earn trust on a unit that's never met you, and why she believes two seemingly opposite things can be true at once: strike nurses support staff nurses, and patients still come first. You'll walk away equipped to understand every side of the strike nursing experience, from the adrenaline of day one to the quiet satisfaction of a job well done.Key Topics Discussed:· Building Confidence Fast: What it takes to walk into an unfamiliar unit and deliver safe, competent care immediately.· Supporting Both Sides: Why strike nurses and staff nurses share the same goal, even when the narrative says otherwise.· Emotional Preparation: How to stay flexible, patient, and self-aware through the unpredictability of a strike assignment.Chapters:· 00:00 - Two things can be true: Setting the tone for a sensitive topic· 00:31 - Meet Melisa: NICU nurse and soon-to-be nurse practitioner· 04:12 - How travel nursing paved the way to her first strike· 09:43 - The chaos, camaraderie, and community of strike assignments· 13:36 - Why the work feels rewarding on multiple levels· 21:15 - Patient ratios, safety, and what nurses are really fighting for· 26:55 - Earning trust from unfamiliar providers under pressure· 34:06 - The emotional release when a strike finally ends· 35:46 - Advice for nurses considering their first strike assignmentGuest SpotlightMeet our guest, Melisa, an ICU and NICU nurse who has completed five strike assignments while pursuing her nurse practitioner degree with a focus on postpartum care. Her firsthand experience navigating fast-paced, high-stakes environments, and her openness about the emotional complexity of strike nursing, offer valuable perspective for any nurse curious about this path.Ready to understand every angle of strike nursing?

Your primary care provider is doing their best. But there's something they may not be telling you — not because they're hiding it, but because they simply can't know everything.In this episode of Your Health University, Jamie Preston sits down with Scott Middleton — Founder and Chief Disruption Officer of Your Health — to talk about one of the most underutilized parts of the American healthcare system: specialty care. Scott shares real stories from the field that will make you rethink what you expect from your next appointment, including a patient who had been living in a nursing home for years without ever being offered a weight-loss medication that was available to her, and a lawsuit that turned on a single chest x-ray that no one thought to order.What you'll learn in this episode:Why your primary care provider legally cannot keep up with every new medication, treatment, and specialist recommendation — and what to do about itWhat GLP-1 medications are, who qualifies, and why so many eligible patients are never told they existThe standard of care around lung cancer screening for smokers — and why not knowing this can have life-altering consequencesHow to ask for a specialist referral (and what happens if your provider pushes back)Why behavioral health is one of the most under-accessed specialties in America — and how to change that for yourselfWhat "integrated care" actually looks like when it works — and what you deserve to expect from your healthcare teamYou are the CEO of your own health. This episode gives you tools to act like it. www.YourHealth.Org
Most healthcare organizations know specialty care matters. Almost none of them are actually using it at the level their patients need.In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Jamie Preston sits down with Scott Middleton — Founder and Chief Disruption Officer of Your Health — for an unfiltered look at one of the most critical gaps in care delivery: specialty services. Your Health currently routes about 10% of its patient appointments through specialty providers. The national average is 20%. Scott makes the case — with real stories from nursing homes, lawsuits, and the road across South Georgia — that closing that gap isn't just a clinical priority, it's a survival strategy.What you'll hear in this episode:Why a 400-pound patient in a nursing home had never been offered a GLP-1 for weight loss — and what that reveals about how providers think about specialtyThe exact communication chain (DPH → EDCS → Care Manager → Provider) and precisely where it breaks downHow 80% of Your Health patients have behavioral health needs while psych providers sit with open schedules — and how to fix that paradoxWhy texts and emails don't cut it in care coordination — and why voice-to-voice is the only real standardThe lawsuit that should have been prevented with a single chest x-ray, and what it means for provider accountability going forwardWhy Scott banned the word "no" inside Your Health — and the mindset shift that comes with replacing itSpecialty is what separates Your Health from every other provider in the market. If you're a DPH, a care manager, or a provider inside this system — this episode is for you. If you're a healthcare leader watching specialty care fall through the cracks anywhere, it might be for you too. www.YourHealth.Org

130. Psilocybin and Menopause: Two Clinicians Reframe Midlife for WomenEpisode SummaryEstrogen regulates the serotonin system, and psilocybin reaches the same receptor. That is where this Salon starts, and it is the most specific version of the psilocybin and menopause conversation I have heard in public.Kelly McGinty, a nurse practitioner, told a full room at Town Hall Seattle that the drop women feel in perimenopause is physiological rather than imagined. I asked whether that means psilocybin replaces estrogen. She said no, and that she would like more research. Her co-author, Dr. Trish Singh, added that research on menopausal women barely exists at any phase of the transition.Two clinicians describe what they see in their patients, then draw a line at the point where the evidence ends. Most people selling a reframe of midlife will not draw that line on a microphone.What sits on the other side of it: anxiety as a knock on the door rather than a malfunction, why women microdose intuitively instead of on a protocol, and the archetypes we inherit about aging women. Kelly's oldest client is 85, and she says the younger generation is watching to see how the older one heals.A woman in perimenopause deserves an explanation for what is happening in her body. Psilocybin is not what delivers that. A provider who knows the full symptom list is.
Pre-rounding, reviewing patient data from the electronic medical record to formulate preliminary management plans, is an essential professional behavior for nurse practitioner students. To develop this clinical skill and promote metacognition, students design a personalized data collection template in a clinical seminar, identifying which data elements they will review and how they will organize the information.
Advocacy doesn't begin in the legislature—it begins wherever nurses use their voices to improve care. In this episode of Palliative Perspective, HPNA Advocacy Committee member Janelle Williamson MSN, NP-C, APRN, ACHPN, FPCN, and Kansas State Representative Melissa Oropeza DNP, APRN, NP-C, CGRN, join the conversation to explore how nurses can influence healthcare at every level. From sharing patient stories and engaging in professional organizations to testifying on legislation and serving in elected office, they discuss the many ways nurses can shape policy and advance the profession. Together, they reflect on their own advocacy journeys, the leadership skills that grow from speaking up, and why nurses are uniquely qualified to inform healthcare decisions. The conversation also addresses a common challenge: many nurses don't see themselves as policy experts, despite being the clinicians closest to patients and families. Whether you're attending your first advocacy event, participating in an HPNA Hill Day, or simply wondering where to begin, this episode offers practical insights and inspiration to help you discover where your voice can make a difference. Advocacy isn't reserved for a select few—it's a natural extension of nursing practice, and every nurse has a role to play.

Most people think occupational therapy is what happens after something goes wrong. Tyler Broome is here to tell you that's exactly the framing that's costing patients their independence. In this episode of the Your Health University Podcast, Jamie sits down with Tyler Broome, a Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant at Your Health, to explore what OT actually is, how it fits into a truly integrated care model, and why the therapy team often sees the earliest signs of decline — before anyone else on the care team does. Tyler brings a uniquely grounded perspective, shaped by a baseball career, a grandmother's fall, and years of working inside the homes of real patients. He articulates something most healthcare systems have yet to fully grasp: that medical outcomes and functional outcomes are deeply connected, and that a care team working in silos is a care team leaving gaps. In this episode: Why occupational therapy is defined by daily function — bathing, dressing, meal prep, medication management — not just physical recovery How OT's presence in the home gives the care team "functional health intelligence" no clinic visit can replicate The difference between saying your system is integrated and actually delivering integrated care Two real patient stories where early cross-disciplinary communication prevented a crisis from becoming a catastrophe Why the shift to value-based care makes therapy's role not just important — but essential If you work inside the Your Health system — or if you've ever wondered what the therapy team actually contributes — this conversation will change how you think about the care happening around your patients every day. www.YourHealth.Org

Send us Fan MailHave you ever asked three people at your fertility clinic the same question—and somehow gotten three different answers?It can feel like nobody is communicating. But sometimes the explanation is more complicated.In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols takes you behind the scenes of a fertility clinic to explain how the care team actually works. Front desk staff, medical assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians, embryologists, billing teams, and office managers all have different training, experience, responsibilities, and access to information—and that can affect the answers you receive.You'll learn the important difference between knowledge gained through repetition and experience versus knowledge built on a deeper medical foundation, why the most confident answer isn't always the most individualized answer, and why a physician saying “it depends” may actually reflect more—not less—understanding of your situation.You'll also learn a simple way to figure out who should answer your question:• Administrative questions• Billing and insurance questions• Medication and treatment instructions• Clinical interpretation• Individualized medical decisions• Embryology and laboratory questionsDr. Amols also explains why yesterday's answer may legitimately be different today, how new ultrasound findings, hormone levels, embryo development, or other information can change your treatment plan, and why not every member of your fertility team may have the newest information at the same moment.Plus, we tackle the difference between communication and customization. A clinic where every patient follows the same pathway may appear incredibly consistent, while individualized fertility treatment creates more moving parts—and a greater responsibility to explain why the plan changes.Most importantly, you'll learn two questions that can prevent a tremendous amount of frustration during IVF or fertility treatment:“Did something change?”and“Who is the best person to answer this question?”Sometimes different answers really do mean there is a communication problem. Other times, the answer changed because your care changed.If you've ever felt confused about who to call, who to trust, or why you're hearing different information during IVF, IUI, fertility testing, or embryo transfer treatment, this episode will help you navigate your fertility clinic with much more confidence.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

Send us Fan MailMy guest on the show today, Mary Howe, is an Air Force veteran and daughter of a military legacy family. Mary's mom is a retired Army Major; her father, Master Sgt. Paul Howe was in Delta and was in the Battle of Mogadishu, which later became the source of the movie Blackhawk Down. Her grandfather was Lt. Col. Charles Beckwith, the founder of Delta Force. To say that her family has a history of service at the highest levels would be an understatement.A bit about Mary. Mary Howe is a former Air Force Special Operations AC-130U aerial gunner turned Family Nurse Practitioner, now working in veteran disability medicine. Her work sits at the intersection of service, identity, and personal responsibility—shaped by a life spent in high-performance environments and a refusal to let performance define her worth.She is the writer behind Unfinished Business, a body of work that documents growth in real time, without the polish or the illusion of having it all figured out. Her perspective challenges the habit of outsourcing direction, calling people back to internal leadership, self-trust, and the work that happens long before anything looks successful from the outside.Her background spans military service, medicine, and a lineage rooted in Special Operations, but her focus now is simple: helping people think better, take ownership, and build something internally that doesn't collapse when circumstances change.It was an honor and joy chatting with Mary. Please enjoy my conversation with someone who is truly inspirational.In today's episode, we discuss:· Her mom, Connie, was a Major in the Army. Her dad, Master Sgt. Paul Howe was Delta and was in the Battle of Mogadishu, and Grandpa was Lt. Col. Charles Beckwith, the founder of Delta Force.· The differences in Delta, SF, Ranger Regiment, Ranger Tab, SEALS, PJ's: Delta is now called Combat Applications Group (CAG).· A group of PJs was on the coast of Florida that saved 11 people who had to ditch their plane in the ocean. They had about 5 minutes of fuel before they had to go back to base.· Growing up in a military legacy family, what was the talk like around the dinner table?· Her rebellious stage growing up. What did that look like and how did her parents deal with that? · Growing up in a strict home. Were her parents bouncing quarters off her bed?· Not realizing the gravity of her father's service until she read the book Blackhawk Down. · Her father's thoughts regarding the book and movie Blackhawk Down after he lived it.· SERE training.· Being a gunner on an AC-130U and her being deployed in four separate combat missions.· Post-military life.

Why do so many devoted healthcare professionals end up exhausted, disconnected, and questioning the very system they built their careers around?In this episode of Break Free from the Burnout, Dr. Anastasia Chopelas sits down with nurse practitioner turned healthcare leadership consultant Diane Gudmundson to explore what separates patient-centered care from patient-centered leadership. Diane shares her path from 25 years in nursing, through founding Nurse Practitioner on Wheels, to earning her MBA in healthcare leadership. Together they unpack the power differential between provider and patient, why listening restores safety and trust in a clinical relationship, and how self-awareness and identity work protect leaders from burnout and people-pleasing. Diane also describes the tools she uses with clients — human design, Myers-Briggs, and DiSC — and previews her upcoming book, Rooted to Rise.What this episode covers:The power differential in healthcare leadership and why it mattersWhy listening changes the outcome of every patient interactionHow identity and self-awareness shape leadership and burnoutHuman design, Myers-Briggs, and DiSC as tools for self-understandingReclaiming identity after difficult or abusive relationshipsIf you lead teams, care for patients, or give your energy to others every day, this conversation offers grounded, practical language for reclaiming your identity and leading with more ease.Visit the show notes at breakfreefromtheburnout.com to connect with Diane and learn about her book.Show notes at https://www.breakfreefromtheburnout.comDiscover your energy leaks.

Decentralized clinical Trials (DCTs) bring some or all elements of a clinical trial closer to patients. Consent, screening, treatment administration, and more can be administered through digital technologies and local health care providers, expanding accessibility for patients who face barriers to participation in traditional single site trials. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Erin Pierce, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, Associate Clinical Investigator and Nurse Practitioner at HonorHealth Research Institute, and Kristen Kipping-Johnsson, MPH, Director of Network Research Operations at the University of Chicago, about how each of their cancer programs are approaching DCT implementation. Their discussion explores how decentralized components, such as community-based treatment delivery, centralized research infrastructure, and hybrid trial designs, can increase participation opportunities for patients in both community and academic settings. Guests: Erin Pierce, MSN, APRN, FNP-C Associate Clinical Investigator Nurse Practitioner HonorHealth Research Institute Scottsdale, AZ Kristen Kipping-Johnson, MPH Director of Network Research Operations University of Chicago Chicago, IL "APPs are really poised to step into that role [of investigator] and help, not take the place of physicians, but work alongside our physician colleagues and enable us to expand the abilities of research." —Erin Pierce, MSN, APRN, FNP-C "Quality of life, being able to keep patients treated closer to home, allow them to stay with the physician that diagnosed them...Those are the things that are really important to me when it comes to decentralization." —Kristen Kipping-Johnson, MPH Resources HonorHealth Research Institute's First Steps to Approaching Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCTs) University of Chicago's Path to Operationalizing Decentralized Phase 1 Trials Across a Regional Network ACCC's Community Oncology Research Institute White Paper: Bringing Cancer Research to the Community: Strategic Approaches to Representative Oncology Clinical Trial Design This podcast was created in partnership with the Decentralized Trials & Research Alliance, with support from Eli Lilly and Company, Gilead Sciences, and Merck.

Lindsay Clancy saw her psychiatrist fourteen times in four months. Her nurse practitioner, who was also prescribing her medications, had no knowledge of those visits. When Clancy checked herself into a locked psychiatric unit, neither outpatient provider was notified.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony Brueski on True Crime Today to cover what these provider coordination failures mean in a case where three children — Cora, five, Dawson, three, and Callan, eight months — are dead.The trial at Plymouth Superior Court is in its third week. Testimony has shown Clancy searched "hallucinations" on her phone five days before January 24, 2023. She messaged providers that she felt completely hopeless and was experiencing unfamiliar intrusive thoughts. A postpartum treatment program she reached out to declined to accept her because of the number of medications she was already taking.Peer-reviewed literature documents postpartum psychosis as a rare condition — roughly one in every thousand births — with a four percent infanticide rate. Clancy's defense argues she was in the grip of that condition. The prosecution argues she was deliberate.Clancy attempted to end her own life immediately after. She jumped from a window and shattered her spine. She is permanently paralyzed. Coffindaffer covers what a jury does with evidence of a suicide attempt that severe, what it means that the system she was begging for help had no internal communication, and how an investigator reads the gap between a mother who planned a killing and a mother who could not stop one.Lindsay Clancy has pleaded not guilty. She is presumed innocent.Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Shelli-Ann McKenzie. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on advocating for healthcare professionals, addressing the challenges they face, and introducing Shelli-Ann McKenzie’s nonprofit organization, Help for Healthcare Professionals (HCPP). The goal is to highlight burnout, financial struggles, and systemic issues in healthcare while promoting programs that support mental wellness, financial literacy, and career development. Key Takeaways Healthcare Workforce Challenges Nurses and healthcare professionals face high stress, burnout, and long hours, leading to workforce shortages. Many professionals struggle financially—24% live in poverty. Lack of professors in nursing schools limits the number of students entering the profession. Understanding Nursing Roles Nursing includes multiple levels: Registered Nurse (RN): Associate or bachelor’s degree. Advanced Practice Nurses: Master’s level (e.g., Nurse Practitioner, Nurse Educator). Doctorate Level: Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) or PhD. Nurse practitioners often function as an extension of physicians, providing quality care. Respect and Recognition Nurses provide more direct care than any other health profession but often lack recognition. Advocacy is key to ensuring nurses can practice at the highest level and improve access to care. Why HCPP Was Founded Born out of COVID-19 crisis and Shelli-Ann’s personal experience with burnout. Mission: Provide mental health referrals, financial assistance (gift cards, gas), and professional development. Programs include: Financial literacy workshops Entrepreneurship training for healthcare professionals Scholarships and internships for aspiring professionals Youth Med Program Targets ages 13–20 to build a healthcare workforce pipeline. Offers hands-on training, CPR certification, exposure to neurosurgeons, and mentorship. Tuition-free and designed to scale nationally. Funding and Community Support HCPP is a nurse-owned nonprofit, funded by federal grants and donations. Annual event: Night of Grand and Gratitude—a charity awards dinner to raise funds for programs. Notable Quotes “No one else was coming to save us—so I created HCPP.” “24% of healthcare professionals live in poverty.” “If we don’t have enough professors, we cap nursing students—it’s cyclical.” “The most rewarding part of nursing is showing up for people in their most vulnerable moments.” “Every dollar we raise fuels education programs like Youth Med—strategic investment in the future of healthcare.” #SHMS #STRAW #BEST Money Making Conversations Master Class with Rushion McDonald is America's premier entrepreneurship, business leadership, financial literacy, and wealth-building podcast featuring successful entrepreneurs, executives, founders, celebrities, and industry experts sharing actionable insights for professional and financial success.

What if the biggest indicator of quality care isn't just what happens in the exam room—but how quickly patients can get there?In this episode of the Coleman Podcast entitled Quality-Flavored Kool-Aid (you'll find out why!) Megan DeMaagd-Rodriguez, Nurse Practitioner, draws from her experience at a Michigan Federally Qualified Health Center. Megan explains why meeting patients where they are, caring for them when they need you—not weeks or months later—and removing barriers to care leads to better outcomes, stronger patient relationships, and greater trust.If you've ever wondered how improving access can transform quality, strengthen patient loyalty, and reshape the way your team delivers care, this episode is for you. Megan goes beyond the "why" to share the "how," offering practical insights into the workflows, teamwork, and mindset shifts that helped her team at Catherine's create timely access that truly meets patients where they are.Because quality isn't just about what happens during the visit; it's about making sure the visit happens when it matters most.Books Mentioned in this Episode:Mastering Leadership the Coleman Way by Melissa StratmanGuest: Megan DeMaagd-Rodriquez, NP Host: Amanda LaramieThanks for listening!

The murder trial of Lindsay Clancy took a sharp turn today when psychiatric nurse practitioner Rebecca Jollotta, certified by Postpartum Support International, testified about a phone call that — according to her — never happened. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and is mounting an insanity defense built on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication, led by attorney Kevin Reddington.Jollotta told the court she saw Clancy just three times and eventually referred her to a program at Women & Infants Hospital. What happened after that, she said, she couldn't say — she never found out how the hospital assessed Clancy or why she wasn't admitted. That's where Reddington zeroed in, asking whether Jollotta knew the rejection stemmed from excessive medication, then reading a Women & Infants record stating the hospital had reached out to her and gotten no response. Jollotta flatly disputed that — she said she never spoke to Women & Infants, period. She also pushed back on any suggestion Clancy was chasing prescriptions, testifying she was trying to get off medication, not accumulate it, and noted she's personally treated five patients with postpartum psychosis, where hearing voices and visual hallucinations are documented symptoms.Prosecutors are expected to argue Clancy understood the nature of her actions despite the defense's mental-health claims. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial, underway in Plymouth Superior Court, is expected to last several weeks.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Testimony resumed today from Rebecca Jollotta, the psychiatric nurse practitioner certified by Postpartum Support International, in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and attorney Kevin Reddington is mounting an insanity defense centered on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Coming out of the morning recess, Jollotta detailed an extended thread of MyChart messages with Clancy, part of a pattern of communication that stretched well beyond the office visits. She told jurors that at a December 6, 2022 appointment attended by both Lindsay and Patrick Clancy, she floated the possibility of an underlying bipolar disorder. Jollotta said her concern for Clancy's mental health was significant enough that she wanted to be seeing her weekly — and that Lindsay had reported suicidal ideation, though notably never on the days Jollotta actually examined her.Prosecutors are expected to argue Clancy understood the nature of her actions despite the defense's mental-health claims. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down.

The murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023, moved into medical territory today. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and defense attorney Kevin Reddington is arguing she was in the grip of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Jurors heard from Julie Paul, one of Clancy's psychiatric nurse practitioners, who was cross-examined by Reddington — the key point being whether Clancy had Paul's personal cell number, which she confirmed. Then Rebecca Jollotta, certified by Postpartum Support International, described taking over Clancy's care after Paul departed the clinic. Jollotta testified to multiple medication changes, weight loss, and poor sleep, but was clear on what she didn't see: no mania, no psychosis, no suicidal or homicidal ideation. She also flagged that the medication trials were cut short rather than run the standard four weeks. Prosecutors pointed to a specific outreach from Clancy to Jollotta — concern about becoming dependent on Ativan and about intrusive thoughts — as evidence Clancy understood her own mental state.Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window after the killings and remains paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court and is expected to run several weeks.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Rebecca Jollotta, the psychiatric nurse practitioner certified by Postpartum Support International, went back on the stand today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney Kevin Reddington is building an insanity defense around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.After the morning recess, Jollotta picked up where she left off, walking jurors through an ongoing stream of MyChart messages between herself and Clancy. She testified that at a December 6, 2022 appointment — one Patrick Clancy attended alongside his wife — she raised the possibility of an underlying bipolar disorder. Jollotta said she was worried enough about Clancy's mental state that she wanted to see her every single week. And in a detail that's going to sit heavy with anyone following this case: Jollotta testified Lindsay did report suicidal ideation, just never on the days Jollotta was actually in the room to hear it.Prosecutors are expected to argue Clancy understood the nature of her actions despite the defense's mental-health claims.

She has pleaded not guilty and is mounting an insanity defense, with attorney Kevin Reddington arguing she was in the grip of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication at the time of the killings.Jollotta testified she saw Clancy only three times before referring her to a program at Women & Infants Hospital — and said she never learned how the hospital evaluated Clancy, or why she wasn't accepted. Reddington pressed on that gap, asking if Jollotta knew Clancy had been turned away over excessive medication, then read from a Women & Infants record claiming the hospital had called Jollotta and never heard back. Jollotta's answer: she never spoke with Women & Infants at all. She also testified Clancy wasn't doctor shopping — she was trying to get off medication, not add to it — and that in her career she's treated five patients with postpartum psychosis, a condition where hearing voices and visual hallucinations are recognized symptoms.Prosecutors are expected to argue Clancy understood the nature of her actions despite the defense's mental-health claims.

What if the biggest threat to your healthcare organization isn't competition or reimbursement rates — it's the moment one of your team members decided that the policy was more important than the person in front of them? In this episode, Jamie sits down with Matt Staub, CEO of Your Health, to explore the timeless "Give 'Em the Pickle" philosophy — born in a burger joint, but almost perfectly designed for healthcare. Matt and Jamie unpack the four pillars of the pickle framework — service, attitude, consistency, and teamwork — and trace each one directly into the reality of patient care, care team dynamics, and organizational culture. Video LinkGive Em The Pickle Youtube Video What you'll hear in this episode: Why charging a loyal customer 75 cents for extra pickles is the same mistake healthcare makes every day — and how the Ritz Carlton's $2,500 employee empowerment policy points to a better way How attitude isn't just a soft skill — it's the infrastructure of every patient interaction, including the ones where you're already having a bad day Why mistakes in healthcare aren't failures — they're invitations, and the patients who complained and felt heard often become your fiercest advocates What real consistency looks like in care delivery: not doing the same thing robotically, but doing ordinary things extraordinarily well, every single time How teamwork in healthcare means every person in the organization — from the CEO to the community health worker — has a role in whether the patient feels seen and served This episode will challenge you to look at service not as a department or a satisfaction score, but as the very soul of what your organization stands for. Give 'em the pickle.
Worried your leg heaviness, swelling, or visible veins mean something more? Adam Hicks, MD, Board-certified vascular surgeon with Franciscan Health, and Cassie Himes, NP, Board-certified Nurse Practitioner, explain when to seek evaluation for venous disease. They describe common symptoms (aching, swelling, end-of-day heaviness), risk factors like pregnancy and prolonged standing, how office ultrasound identifies reflux, and when lifestyle measures or procedural treatment may be recommended.
The medication timeline in the Lindsay Clancy trial got a lot more detailed today, courtesy of Julie Paul, the psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner who treated her before the killings. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is arguing insanity based on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Paul testified that Clancy's anxiety escalated once Patrick Clancy returned to work — and stuck around after that, no real relief. She also covered the sleep problems and walked through the different medications tried over time, laying out exactly the kind of trial-and-error record the defense wants jurors thinking about.Except Paul also flatly said she never saw suicidal ideation in Clancy at any point. And she pushed back preemptively on the idea that switching medications repeatedly is itself suspicious — she called it standard practice in psychiatry, not a warning sign. Sometimes finding the right drug just takes attempts. That's not a cover-up, that's how the specialty works.Clancy allegedly attempted suicide after the killings, jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Patrick Clancy was out running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court and is expected to run several more weeks.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Julie Paul, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner who treated Lindsay Clancy, testified today about the day-to-day reality behind the diagnosis — not the headline version, the actual clinical picture. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and attorney Kevin Reddington is mounting an insanity defense built on claims of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Paul told jurors that Clancy's anxiety got worse once her husband, Patrick, went back to work — and that it didn't let up after that, it just kept going. She also detailed trouble sleeping and walked the court through the string of different medications Clancy was prescribed, which is where the "overmedication" side of this defense lives or dies on the details.But here's the part that cuts against a tidy narrative either way: Paul said she never once saw suicidal ideation in Clancy. And she made a point of telling the jury that trial-and-error with psychiatric medication isn't some red flag unique to this case — it's standard operating procedure, full stop. Finding what works is often a process of elimination, not a sign something's going catastrophically wrong.Clancy allegedly attempted suicide after the killings, jumping from a second-story window and leaving her paralyzed from the waist down.

For many nurses, retirement marks not the end of a career, but the beginning of a new chapter of service. In this episode, former HPNA CEO Judy Lentz, PhD, RN, reflects on how retirement created an opportunity to reimagine her role in palliative care through volunteer leadership and the development of palliative care ministry within faith communities. Drawing on decades of experience in clinical practice, education, research, and organizational leadership, Judy explores how retired nurses and other healthcare professionals can continue to improve quality of life by supporting individuals and families living with serious illness. She also discusses the concept of the palliative care doula as one model for companioning individuals and families through serious illness, alongside practical examples of how congregations can become compassionate partners in care by providing spiritual, emotional, and social support that complements the work of interdisciplinary palliative care teams. The conversation also reflects on the evolution of hospice and palliative care, the enduring value of mentorship and leadership, and the fulfillment that comes from continuing to serve beyond a traditional career. Whether you're approaching retirement, considering volunteer opportunities, or looking for new ways to extend the reach of palliative care, this episode offers inspiration for finding purpose in the next season of professional life. Judy Lentz, PhD, RN Judy Lentz, PhD, RN, retired in 2012 as the CEO of the Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association, the National Board of Certification for Hospice and Palliative Nurses and the Hospice and Palliative Nurses Foundation.

You’ve probably heard the words ‘biofeedback' and ‘neurofeedback' floating around the internet. And you're also probably wondering what they mean and if they're worth your time and money when you have a vestibular disorder. I'm answering all of that in this episode! Biofeedback is a type of mind-body technique to control some of the body's function. And neurofeedback is a type of biofeedback that measures and records brainwaves. As always, I've got research and scenarios for us to talk through to help this really land. They're probably not the first thing you want to invest in and there are even less expensive options that are equally or more effective which I share more about in the episode. Buckle up and let's get a little nerdy with this one!

Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

Today we sit down with Alex, a nurse practitioner and mama of two, who shares her journey from a scheduled breech cesarean to a fast, spontaneous VBAC at a birth center. After two unsuccessful ECV attempts, Alex planned for a cesarean with her first baby. Along the way, she also experienced the heartbreak of miscarriage before welcoming her daughter. Alex opens up about navigating conflicting medical opinions (including being told by an MFM that her baby would die– not okay!!) and how her and her medical doctor husband's views on out-of-hospital birth evolved over time. Alex also shares why practicing for labor could only take her so far before surrender became the greatest lesson, the importance of surrounding yourself with more than just a supportive provider, and how having an encouraging birth team made all the difference. Alex especially talks about how her VBAC-certified doula was an invaluable part of that team. We also discuss some of the evidence behind using ultrasounds to measure scar thickness as a predictor of a VBAC outcome or uterine rupture, and why ACOG does NOT recommend it.
