Akram Boutros — Founder and CEO of Nexus Bedside.Akram brings more than 30 years of experience as a healthcare leader, executive, and clinician. He previously served as CEO of The MetroHealth System in Cleveland from 2013 to 2022, where he led a team of more than 6,000 employees and 3,500 medical staff, overseeing a nearly billion-dollar revenue operation and the complete transformation of the MetroHealth campus and care model.

“Climate change is the biggest health threat of our century, so we need to train clinicians for a future where it will alter disease patterns, the demand on health systems, and how care is delivered,” says Dr. Sandro Demaio, director of the WHO Asia-Pacific Centre for Environment and Health, underscoring the stakes behind the organization's first regionally-focused climate and health strategy. The five-year plan Dr. Demaio is leading aims to help governments in 38 countries with 2.2 billion people manage rising heat, extreme weather, sea-level change, air pollution and food insecurity by adapting health systems, protecting vulnerable populations, and reducing emissions from the healthcare sector itself. In this timely interview with Raise the Line host Michael Carrese, Dr. Demaio draws on his experiences in emergency medicine, global public health, pandemic response and climate policy to argue for an interconnected approach to strengthening systems and preparing a healthcare workforce to meet the heath impacts of growing environmental challenges. This is a great opportunity to learn how climate change is reshaping medicine, public health and the future of care delivery.  Mentioned in this episode: WHO Asia-Pacific Centre for Environment and Health If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Nursing achieved self-regulation a century ago – so why not dental hygiene? Your host Matt Crespin explores this with Cindy Gadbury-Amyot and Sylvie Martel, lead authors of the ADHA's newly released white paper on self-regulation. With 97% of Canadian dental hygienists self-regulated, Sylvie shares lessons from a 30-year journey of patience, resilience and coalition-building. Meanwhile, Cindy sounds the alarm on threats like Missouri's Oral Preventive Assistant pilot project – and explains why similar legislation is being introduced across the U.S. This episode tackles the big questions: Who should determine scope of practice? How does regulation by dental boards limit access to care? And what will it take to move the profession forward? Whether you're new to the self-regulation conversation or have been advocating for decades, this is essential listening.Guests: Cynthia C.

"...we sell hope, because lots of times patients will come to us, they've got the med list this long, and they just think it's going to keep getting longer. We let them know that this is not what it has to continue being. We can actually make changes, and lifestyle medicine providers will, as appropriate, de-prescribe or decrease the dose on these medications. And from the Nursing perspective, it's about being very specific, so making the recommendations instead of saying, you know, eat more fruits and vegetables. You know, well, what's realistic for you at this time? What are you ready to do?

Monday January 26, 2026 Nursing and residential care most dangerous industry study finds

The route of administration can change everything about how a medication works—from how fast it takes effect to how safe and effective it is for a specific patient. For nurses, choosing and administering the correct route is a critical clinical responsibility that directly affects outcomes. In this episode, we'll explore common routes of administration in nursing pharmacology, including oral, IV, subcutaneous, topical, and inhaled therapies. We'll discuss when and why certain routes are preferred, common pitfalls to avoid, and how nursing judgment plays a key role in safe medication delivery.

Medication calculations are a foundational nursing skill—and one of the most critical for patient safety. From weight-based dosing and IV drip rates to unit conversions and dose adjustments, small calculation errors can have serious consequences. In this episode, we'll break down medication calculations in nursing pharmacology with a clear, practical approach focused on real clinical scenarios. Whether you're building confidence, brushing up for exams, or double-checking bedside math, this discussion reinforces why accuracy, consistency, and critical thinking matter every time a medication is calculated.

Pharmacokinetics explains what the body does to a medication—and for nurses, it's essential to understanding how and why drugs work differently from one patient to the next. Absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion all influence onset, duration, and safety of therapy at the bedside. In this episode, we'll break down pharmacokinetics with a nursing lens, tying key concepts to real-world scenarios like renal impairment, IV versus oral dosing, and timing of medication administration. The goal is to make pharmacokinetics practical, approachable, and directly relevant to everyday nursing care. Your support helps me provide more free resources like this!

Dosage forms are more than just pills and injections—they directly impact how medications work, how quickly they act, and how safely they're used. For nurses, understanding the differences between tablets, liquids, injectables, patches, and modified-release products is critical to proper administration and patient education. In this episode, we'll explore common dosage forms in nursing pharmacology, why they matter, and how choosing—or administering—the wrong form can lead to errors or reduced effectiveness. This discussion connects dosage form basics to real bedside decisions nurses make every day. Your support helps me provide more free resources like this!

This is section 1.3 of the nearly 20-hour Nursing Pharmacology Review Course from Meded101! Enjoy! Pharmacodynamics is the “why” behind what medications do in the body—and for nurses, understanding it is key to safe and effective patient care. From receptor binding and dose–response relationships to therapeutic effects and adverse reactions, pharmacodynamics helps explain how medications produce both benefit and harm. In this episode, we'll break down pharmacodynamics in a practical, nurse-focused way, connecting core concepts to real bedside decisions.

In almost every conversation about healthcare, we hear the term, “provider.” Typically, we assume a healthcare provider is a doctor. But, if you look at insurance company definitions of health care providers, the term includes almost every branch of medical care - therapists, podiatrists, imaging centers, home-health agencies, hospice, the list goes on. Ironically, the one person not on any official list of healthcare providers is “you.” A local wellness entrepreneur is changing that. Kwame Terra is Founder and CEO of bEHR Health Systems. The company’s principal product is an app directed specifically at Black Americans. The app doesn’t replace professional healthcare providers, but it aims to put the user front and center in directing their own health outcomes. The app store summary says, “At bEHR, we aspire to create a healthcare resource free from the shackles of racism that infect our current system and seamlessly integrate health into Black culture. This isn't just a health app for tracking and enhancing well-being; it signifies the initiation of our enduring commitment to stand as Black America’s health partner for life.” With roughly 14% of Americans – 48 million people - identifying as Black, and a 2024 Pew Research finding that 51% of Black Americans say they believe the U.S. health-care system was designed to “hold Black people back a great deal or a fair amount,” there would appear to be a ready market for this product. When it comes to the traditional provision of healthcare, the consistently best-regarded group and most trusted providers of medical care, are nurses. Patients and doctors alike typically regard nurses as critical to patient safety and care. There’s also a critical shortage of nurses. According to a recent report from the Louisiana Board of Regents, the state is projected to face a shortage of roughly 6,000 registered nurses by 2030. That’s about 40% short of the workforce needed, if nothing changes. One local institution that’s working to change that outcome is The University of Holy Cross, on the Westbank. Among its other courses, UHC has a dedicated Department of Nursing. RegisteredNursing.org – a nationwide organization of registered nurses – has rated UHC as the best nursing school in Louisiana. And UHC’s nursing department is one of the principal focuses of the school’s President, Dr. Stanton McNeely. If we did a simultaneous scan of every news-talk radio station and every TV news channel right now, it’s pretty likely we’re not the only people talking about healthcare. But it’s very likely we’re the only people talking about a Catholic-college-driven solution to the nursing shortage, and an African-American-focused entrepreneurial venture aimed at sidestepping healthcare racism. Even in something as ubiquitous as the healthcare debate, New Orleans manages to be, well, New Orleans. Out to Lunch was recorded live over lunch at Columns in Uptown New Orleans.

This is section 1.2 of the Nursing Pharmacology Review Course From Meded101. Every medication decision carries ethical weight, and nurses are often at the center of those moments. From advocating for patient autonomy and informed consent to navigating high-risk medications, resource limitations, and end-of-life care, nurses face ethical challenges in pharmacology every day. In this episode, we'll explore the ethical considerations that shape nursing pharmacology practice, including safety, accountability, equity, and professional judgment.

On today's episode, I'm sitting down solo to talk about losing weight postpartum, especially while breastfeeding, so you can feel more confident in your body without negatively impacting your milk supply or mental health. Weight loss is challenging for anyone, but after having a baby, it can feel even harder. Limited bandwidth, less time for yourself, and conflicting advice make it tricky to know what's safe and effective. In this episode, I answer a listener's question about losing weight while nursing. I share my own experience and explain how I support postpartum clients in navigating these goals safely. You'll learn how to approach a calorie deficit intentionally, protect your milk supply, and get my top nutrition and training tips for moms. 1:1 Coaching with Lauren and Our Team of Dietitians: HERE To connect with Lauren, click HERE Submit your question for advice from Lauren on the show HERE Take the free Weight Loss Personality Quiz HERE Shop Our Meal Plans HERE Get Support & Personally Work With Us HERE Related Episodes:

We have a special episode of Raise the Line on tap today featuring the debut of host Dr. Parsa Mohri, who will now be leading our NextGen Journeys series that highlights the fresh perspectives of learners and early career healthcare professionals around the world on education, medicine, and the future of care. Parsa was himself a NextGen guest in 2024 as a medical student at Acibadem University in Turkey. He's now a general physician working in the Adult Palliative Care Department at Şişli Etfal Research and Training Hospital in Istanbul.  Luckily for us, he's also continuing in his role as a Regional Lead for the Osmosis Health Leadership Initiative (OHLI). For his first guest, Parsa reached out to a former colleague in the Osmosis family, Negeen Farsio, who worked with him as a member of OHLI's predecessor organization, the Osmosis Medical Education Fellowship. Negeen is now a graduate student in medical anthropology at Brunel University of London, a degree which she hopes will inform her future work as a clinician. “Medical anthropology is a field that looks at healthcare systems and how human culture shapes the way we view different illnesses, diseases, and treatments and helps you to see the full picture of each patient.” You are sure to enjoy this heartfelt conversation on how Negeen's lived experience as a patient and caregiver have shaped her commitment to mental health and patient advocacy, and how she hopes to marry humanity with medicine in a world that yearns to heal.

This week on The Price for Paradise Podcast, I'm joined by my boxing coach Isaiah Lopez — a registered nurse, coach, and man of faith. We talk about boxing as a skill, not just a workout. Isaiah breaks down how learning to box builds confidence, discipline, awareness, and mental toughness that carries far beyond the gym. We also dive into his career as a nurse, how he blends healthcare and combat sports through pre-fight medical clearances, and his IV hydration business on the side. It's a unique overlap of performance, recovery, and responsibility. At the center of everything is faith — how it guides Isaiah's life, leadership, and how he shows up for others as a coach, caregiver, and mentor. This episode is about developing skill, character, and purpose — inside and outside the ring.

Episode HighlightsReflecting on 2025 & Setting IntentionsAnn shares how embracing the "good, the bad, and the ugly" of 2025 helped shape her current perspective. Rather than setting rigid resolutions that can lead to failure, the focus shifts to setting up a state of being. The chosen word for 2026 is "Manifest." This isn't about passively wishing for success or happiness; it is about visualizing where you want your life to go and actively doing the hard work to get there.The "Work" in NursingThe concept of "putting in the work" translates directly to the bedside. Nurses don't just show up and check tasks off a list. They use their brains, hearts, and intuition to advocate for patients who may not speak up for themselves. Ann discusses how to be fully present and proactive in patient care, rather than just existing in the role.Mental Health and Recognizing "Empty Cup" MomentsA key segment of this episode involves a raw personal story about reaching an emotional limit. Ann recounts a specific shift involving a critically ill infant and a challenging interaction with a patient's father. She knew she was burnt out and couldn't respond with the empathy the situation needed. By stepping away and asking her Charge Nurse for help, she protected both her own mental health and patient experience.Work-Life Balance & Self-CareNurses give endlessly, often sacrificing their own well-being. This episode emphasizes the necessity of filling your cup back up, whether that's through a free activity or a financial splurge. Ann shares her decision to book a five-day trip to Mexico with a friend. Despite financial goals, she recognized the need for a reset to maintain her passion for her career.The Evolving Landscape of HealthcareAs we move into 2026, the healthcare and travel nursing industries continue to shift. The host touches on the excitement surrounding these changes, the recovery from post-COVID transitions, and what the future holds for travel nursing.  Key TakeawaysManifestation requires action: You cannot wait for someone else to fix your life or hand you success; you must pull yourself up and do the work.It's okay to tap out: Recognizing when you have "nothing left to give" is a strength, not a weakness. It ensures patient safety and preserves your sanity.Prioritize the reset: Whether it's a vacation or a small treat, reclaiming your time off is essential to surviving life at the bedside.Embrace the unknown: Healthcare changes are inevitable. Approaching them with excitement rather than fear can change your entire experience.

Here's something most people don't know: In California, families cannot start an involuntary psychiatric conservatorship. Only hospital staff can initiate that process — and only if the patient is "gravely disabled," meaning unable to provide food, clothing, or shelter for themselves.Being violent doesn't count. Being delusional doesn't count. Terrorizing your family doesn't count. If you can tell a psychiatrist where you're going to sleep tonight, you walk out the door.Nick Reiner reportedly lived in his parents' guest house. He allegedly had food, clothing, shelter — provided by Rob and Michele. Under California law, that meant he wasn't "gravely disabled." So even if he was psychotic, even if his medication had been changed and he was spiraling, even if his father told friends he was afraid for his life — there was nothing the family could legally do to force long-term treatment.This episode explores the 1967 law that created this reality. The Lanterman-Petris-Short Act was supposed to end the abuses of indefinite commitment. It succeeded. But it also stripped families of any meaningful ability to intervene before tragedy strikes. California went from 37,000 patients in state hospitals to fewer than 1,500 on conservatorships today.Where did everyone go? Nursing homes. Family homes. The streets. And increasingly, jails and prisons — which now function as America's largest psychiatric facilities.The Reiners did everything the system told them to do. They paid for treatment. They kept Nick close. They tried to help. And the system that was supposed to protect them had been dismantled decades before Nick was born.#TrueCrimeToday #RobReiner #NickReiner #MicheleReiner #MentalHealthLaw #GravelyDisabled #5150 #LPSAct #SystemFailure #TrueCrime2026Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
