"I think we really need to push more of our oncology nurses to get into elected and appointed positions. So often we're looking at health positions to get involved in, and those are wonderful. We need nurses as secretaries of health, but there are others. We as nurses understand higher education. We understand environment. We understand energy. So I think we look broadly at, what are positions we can get in? Let's have more nurses run for state legislative offices, for our House of Representatives, for the U.S. Senate," ONS member Barbara Damron, PhD, LHD, RN, FAAN, told Ryne Wilson, DNP, RN, OCN®, CNE, ONS member and member of the ONS 50th anniversary committee, during a conversation about the future of oncology nursing advocacy and health policy. Wilson spoke with Damron and ONS member Janice Phillips, PhD, RN, CENP, FADLN, FAAN, about how ONS has advanced advocacy and policy efforts over the past 50 years and its approaches for the future.

Highlights From This Episode Phillips: "I think that there are so many pressing issues, but I'm going to start with any kind of threats or legislation that's poised to take away safety-net resources. It's really going to set us back because we all know that, particularly for minorities and certain other underserved populations, they have experienced poor cancer outcomes for a variety of reasons, variety of socioeconomic reasons, lack of access to quality screening resources—you name it. When you take away those safety net resources and take away resources for people who are already underserved, uninsured, or underinsured, it also jeopardizes their ability to get proper screening, get proper follow-up, have access to state of the art cancer services. I think the lack of affordability of health care is a problem that continues to challenge us, whether you on Medicaid or whether you have limited insurance." TS 10:16 Damron: "Because ONS is so grounded in science and research—we're not just a clinical organization; we're grounded in scholarship, science, research, and publication—we're able to take this vast network of strong clinicians [and combine it] with amazing scientists. … We've had some amazing scientists come out of ONS; some of the leading nurse scientists of all time were also oncology nurses. So by combining this, we're able to make a difference at the state and federal level. So the advocacy work that I've been involved in, state and federal levels, really involved working with the ONS staff involved with advocacy and those scientists and clinicians who brought that expertise." TS 18:19 Phillips: "I think expanding the work around multiculturalism in oncology will always be important. Are there any new partnerships or avenues that ONS can reach out to or explore? Maybe there are other specialty organizations or groups—and not always necessarily nursing— because as we think about the determinants of health, we think about things like health and all policies. Maybe there are other disciplines or other specialties that we need to embrace as we launch our agendas." TS 23:28 Damron: "As nurses, just our basic nursing training, we get these skills—we see a problem, we identify the problem, we assess what we're going to do about it, we do it, and then we evaluate what we did. Does that work or not? That's how you make policy. So we were all trained in this. Then what you bring on top of that are oncology nursing experience, whether it's clinical, whether it's research, whether it's teaching, practice, etc. Those continue to refine those skills that are basic to us as nurses. We have this built-in skill set, and we need to own it and understand it." TS 30:25

In the early morning hours of July 14, 1966, Chicago police responded to a call about a woman screaming for help at a townhouse in Chicago's Jeffery Manor neighborhood. When they arrived, they found student nurse Cora Amurao outside the home she shared with eight other student nurses, all of whom had been strangled or stabbed that night by an unknown intruder, while Cora hid underneath her bed. Considered at the time to be a “crime of the century,” the student nurse murders shocked and terrified Chicago residents all across the city. Not only had one man managed to brutally murder eight people, but he had also managed to escape and was loose somewhere in the city. At the time, racially motivated riots had broken out across the city, making the already-burdened Chicago Police Department even more strained when it came to investigating the case.After an intense manhunt that lasted several days, investigators arrested Richard Speck, a twenty-four-year-old unemployed drifter with a criminal history. There was a strong amount of evidence that linked Speck directly to the murders, including his own confession, so when he went to trial, his lawyer tried unsuccessfully to argue Speck was not legally sane at the time of the murders. Unfortunately, the truth was something far worse: Speck killed eight women for no reason whatsoever.ReferencesAltman, Jack, and Marvin Ziporyn. 1967.

Ninja Nurse Book: https://amzn.to/42n9Fqz TKF -KFP Blend 1.Leaders 2.Ando Mierzwa 3. Saturday Mental Meals Shurite Troy June 26-28 2026 https://shuritebujutsu.com/seminars%2Fevents Support A Kids Dream https://gofund.me/e745a0e7 Injuries, ailments and bruising are part of being a martial artist. Sore muscles, joint tweaks and broken bones can happen in martial activity with many variables dictating the outcome. We want to identify the most important variables or potential risks. The injury rate in martial arts is similar to other contact sports. In a study, # Comparison of Shotokan Karate Injuries against Injuries in other Martial Arts and Select NCAA Contact Sports By John-David Swanson, Ph.D. Department of Biology and Biomedical Sciences, Salve Regina University, Newport, RI 02840 Martial arts has "myriad physical and mental benefits. Physical benefits include improved balance, meaningful exercise, and the ability to protect oneself against a physical threat [2]. It is also a physical art, with flowing movements that support one's connection to his/her movements." A review of research revealed there is a 1 in 5 chance of being injured in a shotokan tournament and 1 in 4 chance of being injured over the course of time training. The mean percentage of reported injuries thru 10 studies 1. Contusions 47% 2. Epistaxis (nosebleed) 20% 3. Laceration 14% 4. Sprains/strains 3% 5. Concussions 2% some as high as 7% the most injury-prone arts appear to be Jujitsu (97.5%), Aikido (51%), and Kung Fu (38%), followed by Judo, Karate, and Tae Kwon Do which all were at 20-21%. The least injury prone martial art of those studied is Tai Chi (14%). Which I define as the Wellness versions, but may include pushhands and some strengthening work. Over a 16 year NCAA research study, the only collegiate sport that had a higher injury rate than shotokan karate was football witha 36% injury rate. Soccer and ice hockey following respectively. The major risk factors for injury in the Martial Arts are the 1. time spent in training, 2. age of the participant, 3. the experience of the participant. 4. Specifically, it was found that overtraining, and older and inexperienced participants presented the highest risk of injury. As you might imagine, these factors compound, so an older, inexperienced person has a much higher percentage of getting injured. Professor Swanson states, "The single most important factor in preventing injury is the education and experience level of the instructor [14]. This indicates the requirement of having a strong organizational “apprenticeship” or instructor qualification that includes specific instruction in warm up and cool down procedures, injury prevention and the mechanisms of prevention, the ability to determine overtraining, the ability to give appropriate advice to students in the implication of techniques in both execution and results of delivery" Segways to why this is an important book, Ninja Nurse by Peter Jones. The Essential Guide to Injury Management in Martial Arts. It is available on amazon, goodreads and several other locations. Contributing to the validity of this 300 page book is that Peter is a nurse, has over 30 years of multi-martial experiences and deposits volumes of this information into one book. Ninja Nurse is an excellent guide to all aspects of injury prevention or reduction in martial arts. Chapters include health screening, risk assessment, and aspects of the training environment. Also, You Get a deepdive into children and to combat sports. It also includes true stories, useful links, and where to find important forms if you have a school. Peter takes you through a process, how to: 1. Reduce and prevent injury 2. Treat injury 3. Learn from the injury The book emphasizes content for the instructor. Peter walks through potential problem actions such as : 1. Breakfalling 2. Striking and padholding 3. Chokes and strangles As I read through the book, I noted that Peter provides you a good idea of what a legimate martial arts first aid kit might look like. Granted, any is better than none. However, This is particularly useful if you are not sure on how to build your martial arts first aid kit. Then please, make sure that you can use everything that is in it. https://www.nationalcprfoundation.com/courses/standard-first-aid-3/. $12.95 2 years Reality Moment: Indiana Personal Injury Lawsuit Involving Karate Kick Moves Forward. Kicking Held Bags, Johnny the jackass has already been warned twice about trying to crush people, and on third, gets a lady, jump kicks her when she wasn't ready. she injures her knee in the fall that required surgery. She has sued Johnny, and the court has stated, "an individual's actions during a particular exercise or drill in a practice session can be viewed as “within the range of ordinary behavior of participants in the sport” or whether it is dangerous is for a jury to decide." It continues, "Responsible trainers and athletes keep themselves aware of both the risk of injury and the steps to prevent them." My understanding is that the injured lady is only seeking damages from Johnny Jackass and not the martial arts school. My guess would be that they did things as close to right as possible, except for yanking johnny on his second warning. Ninja Nurse is an excellent clinical reference broken into areas, such as: 1. Spinal injury 2. Chest 3. Neck 4. Limbs 5. And smaller join injuries. Peter discusses Mental Health Awareness and there associations to problems in your training hall. Depression, anger, bi-polar students will bring unique concerns that you can reduce with awareness. Peter states, "consider an acute mental health episode like an acute injury." Iain Abernethy said, ""it focuses on how to ensure training partners don't get hurt and how to help them if they do." Jamie Clubb says, "this is as an exhaustive work on the subject as one could hope to find." I would tell you that this book addresses a critical area of any martial arts training center. Its value is well worth more than the cost. Thank you Peter.

Informed consent is one of the most essential and often misunderstood aspects of pregnancy and birth care. To help unpack this important topic, we are joined by Hillary, better known as The Pregnancy Nurse®.* Hillary brings nearly two decades of experience as a labor and delivery nurse and has been supporting families in clinical settings since 1997. She has guided thousands of birthing parents in person and reached millions more online through her evidence-based education and compassionate approach. Her mission is to help families feel informed, empowered, and confident as they prepare for birth.  Together, we explore what informed consent truly means in practice, how doulas can help clients understand their rights, and the importance of collaboration with medical teams. We also discuss how informed consent differs from implied consent, and what true autonomy looks like in the birth space.  Join us for a thoughtful and informative discussion that will deepen your understanding of informed consent and strengthen your ability to support clients through empowered decision-making.

Could studying the DNA of extinct animals – or even bringing them back to life – help us save today's endangered species and inform modern medicine?  That may sound like the premise for a Hollywood movie, but it's work that our Raise the Line guest, Dr. Beth Shapiro, is actually engaged in as Chief Science Officer at Colossal Biosciences, which describes itself as the world's first and only de-extinction company.  “It's not just about learning about the past. It's learning about the past so we have more validated scientific information that we can use to predict what we can do to better influence the future,” she tells host Michael Carrese. An internationally-renowned evolutionary molecular biologist and paleogeneticist, Dr. Shapiro is a pioneer in ancient DNA research and has successfully sequenced genomes, like that of the dodo, to study evolution and the impact on humans. At Colossal Biosciences, she leads teams working to bring back traits of extinct species such as the mammoth, not for spectacle, but to restore ecological balance. “When species become extinct, you lose really fundamental interactions between species that existed in that ecosystem. By taking a species that's alive today and editing its DNA so that it resembles those extinct species, we can functionally replace those missing ecological interactions.” Tune into this utterly fascinating conversation to hear about what Jurassic Park got wrong, the positive ecological impact of reintroducing giant tortoises to Mauritius, and the ethics of using gene editing and other biotechnologies. Mentioned in this episode:Colossal Biosciences If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Urinary tract infections — or UTIs — aren't the most glamorous topic, but they're incredibly important, and we just don't talk about them enough. If you've ever had one, you'll know how miserable they can be: the burning, the stinging, those endless trips to the loo, the pain, and that bone-crushing fatigue. They can really knock you sideways.For many women, UTIs become more common — and more stubborn — during perimenopause and menopause.In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Helen Lake, a specialist urology nurse, to help us understand why UTIs happen, why they mustn't be ignored, and what you can do about them — from medical treatments to nutrition and supplements.Helen explains everything you need to know about identifying, understanding, and managing UTIs — and hopefully banishing them for good. We cover the key symptoms, prevention strategies like staying hydrated and double-voiding, why test results aren't always conclusive, and when antibiotics are needed. We also look at the role of beneficial bacteria, cranberry and D-mannose, vaginal moisturisers, topical oestrogen, and how to advocate for yourself with your GP.If you've found this episode helpful, please share it with a friend who might benefit too.

Nurses Out Loud with Jodi O'Malley MSN, RN – New graduates are entering the workforce bright, passionate, and full of potential — yet many are struggling to make the leap from student to professional.

It's a reflection of a disconnect between nursing school and the realities of...

Nurse turnover rates have improved since the pandemic peak, but that doesn't mean we're out of the woods: 40% of nurses report that they intend to leave their job within five years. As nurse leaders turn their attention from fighting fires to finding strategic levers for nurse retention, they may be missing a surprising opportunity: career pathing. Nurse career pathing has traditionally aimed at a core goal: to keep nurses at the bedside for as long as possible. But our research found that, to build a sustainable nursing workforce, nurse leaders need to focus on nurse engagement—not just retention. This week, host Abby Burns sits down with Advisory Board nursing experts Miles Cottier and Allyson Paiewonsky. They break down the state of the nursing workforce and what it looks like to do career pathing in a way that better balances nurses' needs with those of the organizations. Hint: the path may look less like a ladder, and more like a branching river. We're here to help: Radio Advisory Nursing playlist Ep. 245: Headcount might not explain your labor challenges. What will?

When a mother in a New Jersey hospital looked down and realized the baby in her arms wasn't hers, veteran mother–baby nurse Joyce Fisher did what every good nurse is trained to do — she acted fast. But instead of being praised for preventing further harm, Joyce was fired and reported to the Board of Nursing.In this powerful episode of Nurse Converse, host Jana Price sits down with Joyce and her attorney, Matthew A. Luber, to unpack how a system meant to protect patients turned against the very nurse who upheld it. Together, they explore what happened during the baby mix-up, the emotional toll on everyone involved, and the broader implications for nurses who speak up about safety concerns.This is more than one nurse's story — it's a wake-up call for the entire healthcare profession about accountability, retaliation, and the urgent need for true “Just Culture.”>>Nurse Breaks Silence After Being Fired for Reporting Hospital's Baby Mix-Up | OpinionJump Ahead to Listen:[00:03:40] Case Overview [00:04:30] Joyce's Nursing Background[00:06:35] Start of Shift & Report[00:09:30] “This is not my baby.”[00:11:10] Escalation & Protocols[00:13:20] Emotional Fallout[00:17:30] Leadership Involvement and Reporting the Event[00:18:20] Suspension and Internal Investigation[00:23:10] Fired for “Gross Negligence”[00:24:20] Setting Precedent[00:26:10] Missing Root-Cause Analysis[00:28:10] Virtua "Just Culture" StatementConnect with Jana on LinkedInFor more information, full transcript and videos visit Nurse.org/podcastJoin our newsletter at nurse.org/joinInstagram: @nurse_orgTikTok: @nurse.orgFacebook: @nurse.orgYouTube: Nurse.org

Nurses Out Loud with Jodi O'Malley MSN, RN – New graduates are entering the workforce bright, passionate, and full of potential — yet many are struggling to make the leap from student to professional.

According to the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University, women make up 70% of the global healthcare workforce but hold only about 25% of leadership positions. Our guest today on Raise the Line, Dr. Roopa Dhatt, has been a leading voice in the movement to correct that imbalance through co-founding an organization called Women in Global Health (WGH), which has established chapters in over 60 countries since it started a decade ago. Dr. Dhatt is also pursuing that agenda and addressing other pressing issues in healthcare as a Young Global Leader at the World Economic Forum. “We're changing the equation so women delivering health are also viewed and valued as leaders,” says the internal medicine physician and assistant professor at Georgetown University School of Medicine. Beyond leadership equity, Dr. Dhatt is also seeking to address systemic pay inequities and high levels of violence and harassment experienced by women in the health sector, issues that were highlighted in research conducted by WGH. Although WGH has seen high-level success influencing policy at the World Health Organization and United Nations, Dr. Dhatt says the heart of its success is local. “Women community health workers have begun to see themselves as leaders and the heroines of health in their communities. That's profound change.” Join host Michael Carrese for a probing conversation that identifies the structural barriers blocking advancement for women and that explains why the health of communities and the planet depend on inclusive leadership.Mentioned in this episode:Women in Global HealthWHO Report: Delivered By Women, Led By MenDr. Roopa Dhatt on LinkedIn If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this episode of The Successful Nurse Coaches podcast, Shelby discusses the challenges and transformative power of selling nurse coaching. She reframes sales as a deep service to humanity, emphasizing the importance of ethical selling and advocating for clients' potential. Shelby shares personal experiences and insights on how to approach sales with confidence and integrity, encouraging listeners to view selling as a form of leadership and transformation.Shelby emphasizes that selling is fundamentally about helping clients make decisions that honor their potential, rather than merely closing a transaction. Ethical selling is likened to advocating for a patient's healing in a hospital, where the focus is on service to humanity. The goal of a proposal is to reach a decision, not just a 'yes', as leaving clients in a 'maybe' is not effective coaching leadership. Shelby highlights that sales calls should feel magical and empowering, and that confidence in sales comes with practice and repetition.Watch on YouTube:https://youtu.be/y-mSCSv1F6AMentioned in this episode:Join us LIVE for our Free Coaching Demo - Nov 7th at 6pm CSThttps://www.nurselifecoachacademy.com/events

 He is an exceptional physician who has spent a lifetime attempting to facilitate communication between patients and their doctors and patients and their families. He has authored a brilliant book summarizing his life's experience regarding preparations for dying well. This book is necessary for anyone who has loved ones who may be grappling with this issue. It is a masterpiece, says Philip W. Gold, M.D.Library of Congress Council of Scholars, Former Investigator in the Intramural Research Program of the NIMH.It has been over 50 years of medical practice and teaching for understanding what is needed to navigate the obstacles in the way of a peaceful departure. The subject of his commencement speech at the Duke Medical School graduation in 1970 concerned the lack of human understanding in medical education.The most  human of understandings, the wisdom to accept illness, old age (if you are lucky), and death, is called existential intelligence. This is the core intelligence of Doctor Horton's two current books and the ones to follow.He is the author of "Good to Go: Five Understandings to Navigate a Peaceful and Elegant Last Chapter of Life." https://drjohnhorton.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

Send us a textA single moment on a postpartum floor changed everything. Our guest, an OB nurse in California, describes the first time she was told to give a hepatitis B shot to a healthy newborn—and the gut-deep resistance that sent her searching through ingredient lists, safety thresholds, and the true indications for a vaccine usually tied to maternal status or later-life exposure. What began as a quiet unease became a conviction: parents deserve clear, pressure-free informed consent before any neonatal vaccination.From there, the story turns to outcomes. She recounts an internal email about fetal demises and the shock of seeing numbers she believed were unprecedented. Sharing that message outside the hospital led to whistleblower attention, media appearances, and an internal investigation focused more on policy breaches than the underlying question: if outcome patterns appear to change, are we rigorously auditing data, confounders, and clinical pathways, and are we communicating those findings with transparency? We walk through her claims, her faith-driven courage, and why colleagues often stay silent out of fear for jobs or reputations.Throughout the conversation, we keep returning to first principles. Informed consent is a relationship, not a rushed signature. Families have the right to ask about aluminum content, FDA safety limits referenced on federal pages, screening results for hepatitis B, and timing options. Clinicians deserve the space to raise red flags without retaliation. And when protocol meets conscience, the ethical response is more light, not less: better data, better explanations, and a willingness to change course if evidence demands it.If you're a parent, nurse, or physician wrestling with these questions, you'll find practical takeaways: how to frame informed consent in plain language, what to ask before neonatal shots, and where to find third‑party resources that help families think clearly. Listen, share with someone who needs it, and join the conversation.
