In the news,The National Coalition for Caymanian's Administration is proposing Cayman's first stand-alone Environmental Health Act. Bringing nursing exams home—proposed changes to the Health Practice Act aim to shift oversight to Cayman's Nursing and Midwifery Council and strengthen governance for nursing education.A cheeky job posting for a “Chief Relaxation Officer” turns into a major marketing win for Cayman's tourism officials.Looking for a way to give back? Kiwanis is calling for volunteers to support its child literacy programme, and the George Town Library is offering a low-cost, book-filled Saturday for families.

Jeff Hoover talks with Dr. Emiley Button, Director of Nursing at Lindsey Wilson University, about the school's new fully online RN to BSN program. They discuss how the program helps working nurses earn their bachelor's degree, partnerships with area hospitals and Somerset Community College, tuition assistance opportunities, and the growing demand for nurses across Kentucky.

"We have an untapped army of 200,000 PAs that really could step up and drive some change in the healthcare system if we weren't restricted,” says Dr. Jennifer Kolb, capturing her motivation for pushing to update practice regulations for physician associates that date back more than 50 years.  As Chief Medical Officer and Senior Vice President of Clinical Affairs at the American Academy of Physician Associates, Dr. Kolb has been in the middle of the fight at the state and federal level to grant PAs more independence from physicians, full billing rights, and the increased ability to practice across state lines, among other changes.  In this pertinent conversation with Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, Dr. Kolb explains how these updates could help close huge gaps in access to healthcare, better manage the fight against chronic diseases and improve patient outcomes.   Dr. Kolb also addresses:  Why the name shift from "assistant" to "associate" took her years to fully appreciate; How a 10-year gap in life expectancy across Chicago zip codes shapes her view of health equity; Why PA's shouldn't wait for permission to start making change in their communities.

What does it mean when Isaiah 49:23 calls kings "nursing fathers" to God's people? In this episode of The Magistrate, Josh Howard and James Baird examine one of the most debated passages in Christian political theology. Looking at Isaiah 49, Numbers 11, and the historic Reformed tradition, they explain why civil rulers are called to protect, nourish, and support the church—not as replacements for Christ or the church's spiritual authority, but as ministers of God for the good of His people.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Nursing leadership has never carried more weight, or more complexity. In this episode of Elevate Care, host Steven Endsley sits down with Alan Vierling, Chief Nurse Executive at San Juan Regional Medical Center, to talk about what it actually takes to build a sustainable pipeline of nurse leaders in an environment defined by workforce shortages, generational shifts, and rising expectations for both quality and financial performance. Alan brings a career's worth of perspective to the conversation, from his start as an operating room technician to leadership roles across Ohio, Texas, Michigan, and Alaska before landing at San Juan Regional. He shares candid insights on identifying leadership potential, the role of emotional intelligence in a text-driven generation, and why San Juan Regional has built structured programs like book clubs, skip-level meetings, and simulation-based coaching to develop leaders earlier in their careers. The discussion also covers practical retention strategies, including sabbaticals for veteran managers, dedicated overnight support to reduce burnout, and New Mexico's unique childcare and tuition benefits designed to remove barriers for nursing staff. Alan closes with a grounded take on artificial intelligence in healthcare: a tool for sharper decision-making, not a replacement for the human connection that defines nursing. Key Takeaways Nurse leadership development requires both structured programs (book clubs, coaching) and informal access (skip-level meetings) to build trust and leadership readiness at every level. Emotional intelligence, not technical skill alone, is often the clearest early indicator of leadership potential among nursing staff. Retention strategies like sabbaticals, overnight management support, and reduced administrative burden directly address burnout among frontline nurse managers. State-level benefits, such as free childcare and tuition support in New Mexico, are reshaping how health systems compete for nursing talent. Artificial intelligence can strengthen data fluency and speed up clinical decision-making, but it cannot substitute for authentic, face-to-face patient and staff connection. Reframing setbacks as learning opportunities, rather than crises, builds long-term resilience across nursing leadership teams.

The Big Unlock · Umesh Rustogi, General Manager, HLS Dragon & Platform, Microsoft In this episode, Umesh Rustogi, General Manager, Healthcare & Life Sciences Dragon & Platform at Microsoft, explains that meaningful AI outcomes depend on combining unified multimodal data foundations with clinician-centered design to achieve healthcare’s quadruple aim: improving care quality, patient experience, operational efficiency, and workforce well-being. Addressing the severe nursing shortage and turnover driven by administrative burnout, Umesh details how Microsoft co-innovated with nine major health systems to deploy Dragon Copilot for Nursing, a clinical assistant that works alongside nurses. By leveraging ambient AI on mobile devices, the solution helps nurses capture flow sheet documentation for their review and maintains a running cognitive memory across shifts, significantly lowering cognitive load and enabling nurses to be truly present with their patients. Umesh also emphasizes that enterprise-scale success requires far more than model selection. It demands responsible AI governance, transparent audit capabilities, deep workflow customization, and robust change management, including nurse leader sponsorship and dedicated unit champions. He envisions smart hospital rooms, multimodal AI, wearable integration, and agentic workflows transforming clinical operations by delegating non-patient-facing tasks so caregivers can focus on delivering better care. Take a listen. This guest appearance was facilitated through conversations initiated at HIMSS.

It is built by taking intelligent action, developing simple systems, investing consistently, and turning today's income into assets that can support tomorrow's life. Start with one property, one relationship, or one disciplined habit, then keep building until freedom is no longer a dream but the foundation beneath everything you do.

Ep 295 Peacewarts: Resonant Charms - The Weight of Metaphor (Class 11) Episode Summary: In class 11, we explore the dual nature of war metaphors. While "The War on Cancer" helped rally vital resources, we examine how martial language can unintentionally increase patient guilt and normalize aggression in social policy. We introduce "Ecology Metaphors" and "Stewardship" as alternatives that maintain commitment without the violent side effects. Homework: Look up research on "Militarized Metaphors in Healthcare" for alternative framings. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write 'no question.' Optional: Journal about reframing a personal "battle" as a "navigation." Books: If you'd like to read more on this subject, some book suggestions are Metaphors We Live By by George Lakoff and Mark Johnson, a foundational linguistic masterpiece that reveals how our everyday conceptual frameworks unconsciously dictate human thought and behavior, and Illness as Metaphor by Susan Sontag, a brilliant and searing critique that exposes how militarized, punitive language inflicts deep psychological harm on patients navigating complex health conditions. Learning Topics: The "War on Cancer" Case Study; Metaphors as Policy Engines; The "Hero" Trap in Nursing; The Portuguese Health Shift; The Metaphor Replacement Lab; Combat vs. Cultivation.

"In oncology specifically, where care is complex, artificial intelligence (AI) can really synthesize large volumes of clinical information, flag risks such as treatment complications, and support adherence to evidence-based pathways. For nurses specifically, this enables them more time for direct patient care, clinical judgment, and care coordination, and really practice to the top of their license while reducing repetitive time and administrative tasks," Jenn Frith, DNP, RN, OCN®, NE-BC, associate vice president of clinical operations at Duke Cancer Institute in Durham, NC, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS. Weimer spoke with Frith and Emily Norboge, director of clinical and research informatics at Duke Cancer Institute, about how AI can help healthcare organizations improve the cancer experience.  Music Credit: "Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0  Earn 0.5 contact hours of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by July 24, 2027.

If a patient needs help with medical paperwork, the agent will walk the patient through how to do that paperwork. If a patient has a question that they need sent to their provider, it can document that and then send a message to the provider. There's a series of workflows so it can route to scheduling. It can answer information about test results that is compliant with our policy around test results. The goal of that agent is that it will handle all of those administrative-type tasks that don't necessarily require a nurse to fill." TS 5:44 Norboge: "When [patients] call the nurse triage line, the nurse will have to say, 'I understand you want your test results. I can contact your provider and have them reach out to you about your results.' But that's kind of where it ends. What we worked out with the agent is if a patient calls and says, 'I really want my test results,' they will in a very nice, standard way, say something similar. You know, 'I'm not authorized to discuss your test results with you, but I'd be happy to send a message to your provider and ask them to call you.' But then the agent goes one step further and says, 'Are you experiencing anxiety about your test results? If so, I can transfer you to the nurse to discuss support for a potential referral to family medical therapy if you would like help managing that anxiety.' In a clear, helpful way, it can define and help a patient with their needs and not just have a standard of 'this is our policy and I can't share it with you.'" TS 11:14 Frith: "Really, transparency is the key. The patient should understand that AI is used more as an enhancement, but not to replace the human connection. That's not the goal. The nurses can explain that the tools will help ensure accuracy, timeliness, and safety while allowing more time for the direct interaction of the nurse. I think framing AI as an additional layer of support rather than a decision maker helps build trust. And I think maintaining strong communication and presence at the bedside just reinforces that care remains fundamentally human." TS 15:32 Frith: "I think AI in oncology is going to continue to advance in our predictive analytics, personal care planning, and probably real-time decision support. I think we'll see a greater integration into symptom management, some early detection of complications, and longitudinal care coordination across our settings. I think nurses will continue to increasingly use AI to anticipate patient needs and prioritize care. I think the role of the nurse won't diminish. Rather, it will become more elevated in allowing them to practice to scope of practice." TS 19:58 Frith: "AI represents a meaningful opportunity to strengthen oncology nursing practice by reducing burden and enhancing the clinical insight. It needs to be a very thoughtful implementation. We talked about having strong governance and continued investment in the nursing workforce. I want to reinforce that oncology care remains deeply human, and AI should only be viewed as a tool that enables the nurses to do what they do best, which I feel is deliver safe, compassionate, and high-quality specialized care to our most vulnerable patients." TS 27:31

We're joined by first-time guest Lacey W. Heinsberg, PhD, RN, on this week's episode of the Faculty Factory Podcast to examine many of the ethical considerations surrounding the widespread use of generative AI tools (ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Claude, etc.). Dr. Heinsberg is Assistant Professor of Health Promotion & Development in the School of Nursing, and of Human Genetics in the School of Public Health, at the University of Pittsburgh. She also serves as Co-Director of the Genomics of Patient Outcomes HUB in the School of Nursing. It feels difficult to opt out of using generative AI without there being serious consequences to our careers, yet as we learn in today's episode, it's a deeply personal choice whether to use it and how much to use it. Personal Code of Conduct Dr. Heinsberg created her own personal code of conduct about using generative AI and discussed this in the interview today. Some of its themes include: "Enhance it, don't replace it" and staying aligned with her own institution's AI use policy. There is almost a certain slippery slope facing us all when it comes to an overreliance on generative AI. Writing is thinking, so if AI is writing for us, are we thinking more deeply? Is this harming our critical thinking? "When does trust but verify become ‘why bother using it at all?", she said. Broaching Tough Questions No one has all the answers to this, but it is important to be discussing this with your teams and to embrace these tough questions. Other recurring themes in this episode include: Authenticity.  Integrity.  Transparency (and where the line is between ghostwriting and flat-out generation of unoriginal text). If you're not sure where to get started on your code of conduct policies, or if you have any other questions, you can reach out to her directly via email: law145@pitt.edu.

All nursing schools teach you the five rights of medication administration as a key component in keeping your patients safe, but if you want to take it further to understand all the factors that go into giving medication safely, this episode is for you. In this podcast episode, I'll talk you through the five rights of medication administration, and then keep going with six more that will take your critical thinking skills to the next level. Medication rules are AWESOME because they're designed to keep both you and your patient safe, and I absolutely want that for you. So hit play and bulletproof your medication administration! Snag a copy of these to keep in your clinical binder here.  You can read the article "Bulletproof Medication Administration" ⁠here⁠. Now that you've got a foolproof system for your medication administration, why not take it a step further and build one for approaching nursing school as a whole. I get you started by walking you through the key shifts that separate struggling students from thriving ones in my free ⁠Nursing School Survival Blueprint⁠. Nursing school gets easier when you have a system. 

Most adults who smoke want to quit, and about half try to do so in any given year, yet fewer than one in ten succeed. That persistent gap between intention and outcome is one of the central challenges in public health, and it's exactly the kind of problem that calls for new thinking about how to communicate with people to support behavior change.  Dr. Amanda Graham has been a leading force in doing just that in her role as chief health officer at Truth Initiative, the nation's largest non-profit public health organization dedicated to preventing addiction among young people and helping people of all ages to quit tobacco. On this episode of Raise the Line from Elsevier, Dr. Graham, who holds a PhD in clinical health psychology and has done 25 years of NIH-funded research focused on technology-based cessation interventions, helps us understand the interplay between behavioral science and digital communications in the field. "A well-timed message can really be powerful in interrupting what for many people is kind of an automatic behavior, especially via text, which data tell us is an extraordinarily powerful modality,” she explains to host Lindsey Smith.  Tune-in to understand where the field is heading, and to learn about: Why "push" technology may work better than apps and websites when it comes to breaking automatic behaviors; How the rise of e-cigarettes, nicotine pouches, and heated tobacco has scrambled decades of public health messaging; How highschool smoking rates plunged from over 30% to less than 2%.

Intensifying demands on nurses have led to burnout and workforce instability. Dr. Stubin describes her study that examined nursing alumni perceptions of how effectively their undergraduate curriculum prepared them to manage workplace burnout. She conducted focus group sessions with 55 alumni, all of whom had less than 5 years of experience as registered nurses. Participant responses included feeling overwhelmed and emotional shock during transition, inadequate preparation for managing burnout and mental health challenges, and desire for institutional change. Dr. Stubin share strategies to build into the curriculum to enhance retention, prevent early-career burnout, and foster a more sustainable nursing workforce.

New graduate nurses often lack the skills necessary to care for clients at the end of life. Essential to designing an end-of-life course is awareness of the potential psychological impact of the content and providing students with appropriate support resources. An online, asynchronous end-of-life course was integrated into an undergraduate nursing curriculum. Weekly modules provided specific wellness tips that encouraged students to use them in caring for their clients and supporting their own well-being.

Health New Zealand is celebrating meeting its nursing target, with 1800 roles being offered to graduates over the next year. The organisation says there's a wide range of opportunities across the country – including at hospitals and with primary, aged, and community providers. It says this is essential to building a sustainable long-term workforce across the health sector. Chief Nurse Nadine Gray told Mike Hosking most studying nurses can be confident there will be a job available once they graduate. She says this has been the case for most students coming out of university and polytech in the past year. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Landing your first nursing job sounds straightforward after graduation—but for many new grads, the reality is far more difficult. In this episode of Nursing Uncharted, host Ann [BG1][CD2]sits down with Stella Leiken, a recent MSN graduate from the University of San Diego's Master's Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN), to talk honestly about what it's really like to enter the nursing workforce for the first time. Stella shares her journey from a psychology degree at UC Santa Barbara to an accelerated MEPN program, completing 192 hours of hands-on NICU preceptorship, and preparing to take the NCLEX. But the conversation quickly turns to something many nursing programs don't prepare you for: the search for that first nursing job. Despite an MSN, a strong clinical record, and glowing recommendations, Stella applied to nearly every NICU in California and was denied by all of them. She opens up about the emotional toll of repeated rejection, the nursing shortage paradox that leaves new grads competing fiercely for a shrinking number of residency spots, and why she made the decision to look out of state rather than settle for a specialty she didn't want. Her story is raw, honest, and relevant for any new grad nurse navigating today's competitive job market. Key Takeaways Don't settle for the wrong specialty. Taking a job in a unit you don't want just to get hired can make transitioning into your dream specialty later even harder. Start applying before you graduate. Some new grad residency programs close months before graduation. Others open applications for only 24 hours with no public notice. Networking matters. Stella secured her NICU preceptorship because she made a strong impression during her leadership rotation. Connections can open doors that applications alone cannot. Broaden your geographic search. If your local market is oversaturated, looking out of state can unlock opportunities and help you grow in unexpected ways. Protect your confidence. Rejection after rejection takes a real toll. Staying focused on your goal and leaning on your support system can make all the difference Chapters 00:00 – Introduction and why this episode is different 01:49 – Stella's background: from UCSB psychology to the USD MEPN program 03:08 – MEPN vs. ABSN: understanding the pathways into nursing 04:25 – The three-week boot camp that kicked off her program 07:54 – How preceptorships work and why specialty selection is so competitive 09:22 – NICU placement and the power of networking for new grad nurses 11:47 – NCLEX prep: how Kaplan and school support set Stella up for success 15:26 – The new grad job hunt begins, and why the timeline catches many off guard 18:37 – The nursing shortage paradox: high demand, fierce competition 19:03 – Applying to every NICU in California and facing rejection 21:10 – Looking out of state: Nashville, Georgia, Colorado, and beyond 26:43 – The emotional reality of repeated rejection 30:08 – Stella's advice: stay confident, don't settle, and go where the opportunity is 35:36 – Closing thoughts and words of encouragement for new grad nurses   Meet Our Guest, Stella Leiken Stella Leiken is a recent MSN graduate from the University of San Diego's Master's Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN). She earned her undergraduate degree in psychology from UC Santa Barbara before working in a private ophthalmology practice, an experience that confirmed nursing as her true calling. Through her MEPN program, Stella completed 192 hours of NICU clinical preceptorship across two semesters, gaining hands-on experience caring for critically ill infants. She is preparing to take the NCLEX and is actively searching for her first nursing role.
