Podcasts about RN

Hey Nurse friend, Today, I'm sharing a conversation I had with Lacey Conner on her podcast: Image Bearers. We have a casual conversation about nurse burnout and identity. We talk about how burnout show up in our lives, differently and the way God led us both to using our skills and expertise in nursing in our current season of life. Lacey is a mom to 4, RN and host of the podcast, Image Bearers. She is using the podcast to glorify God by sitting down with people and their story. Because we are made in the image of God, we have bestowed worth and dignity. She is wanting people to feel like they are seen, heard, and loved. To love another person is to see the face of God and I believe this to be true. Wherever you are in your nursing journey, I believe this conversation with shed light on how you can live out your identity with less stress.

Hundreds of union nurses, federal workers, and local residents gathered outside the Veterans Affairs central office building in Washington, DC, on Jan. 28, to hold a vigil for Alex Pretti and all who have been killed by ICE. The vigil was one of many events organized or co-sponsored by National Nurses United, the nation's largest union and professional association of registered nurses, which has forcefully called for ICE to be abolished in the wake of Pretti's killing.

"Radioimmunoconjugates work through a dual mechanism that combines immunologic targeting with localized radiation delivery. The monoclonal antibody components bind to specific tumor-associated antigens such as CD20, expressed on malignant B cells. Once found, the attached radioisotope delivers beta radiation directly to the tumor, causing DNA damage and cell death," Sabrina Enoch, MSN, RN, OCN®, CNMT, NMTCB (CT), theranostics clinical specialist at Highlands Oncology in Rogers, AR, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about radioimmunoconjugates.

Highlights From This Episode "Radioimmunoconjugates are a specialized subset of radiopharmaceuticals designed to combine the specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the cytotoxic power of radiation. ... Early development focused on B-cell malignancies, particularly non-Hodgkin lymphoma." TS 1:51  "An important concept for nurses to understand is the crossfire effect, where radiation can affect nearby tumor cells, even though not every cell expressed has the target antigen. This helps explain why these agents can be effective even in heterogeneous tumors." TS 3:40 "At present, 90 Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan is the only radioimmunoconjugate approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in clinical use. Historically, iodine-131 tositumomab played a major role in establishing these therapy classes, but it's also useful to contrast radioimmunoconjugates with other radiopharmaceuticals, such as iodine-131 therapies, which a lot of places do at this time, used for thyroid diseases, or radium 223, used for metastatic prostate cancer. Unlike those agents, radioimmunoconjugates rely on antibody-mediated targeted rather than physiologic uptake or bone affinity." TS 4:55 "I just try to explain to [patients] that radiation exposure is like being next to a flame. The further you are away, the less heat you get, the less exposure you get. These patients can be radioactive for three days, seven days—it just depends on how fast they excrete it through their bodies with half-life exposure." TS 9:33 "While only one agent is currently approved, the principles established by radioimmunoconjugates continue to guide development for newer targeted radiopharmaceuticals. Emerging agents aim to improve targeting, reduce toxicity, and expand indications beyond hematologic malignancies. This evolution underscores the importance of nursing education in this rapidly changing field." TS 10:41 "Radioimmunoconjugates represent an important bridge between traditional oncology treatments and the future of targeted therapies. Oncology nurses play a vital role in ensuring safe delivery, patient understanding, and collaboration between multidisciplinary teams. So, it's very important to educate and also stay up to date on evidence-based practices." TS 13:12

Adversaries of the U.S. could launch a nuclear weapon at America, or they can achieve the same goal by flooding the nation with fentanyl, says Rep. Addison McDowell, R-N.C., who has introduced a bill cracking down on fentanyl imports.   Over the past decade, roughly 500,000 U.S. lives have been lost to synthetic opioid overdoses, mainly fentanyl, according to the National Institutes of Health.   McDowell on Wednesday introduced a bill aimed at blocking drug traffickers from bringing a tool called a pill press into the U.S.  The process of fentanyl entering the U.S. is “coordinated,” McDowell explains. China, for example, “will ship a pill presser” to a drug dealer in the U.S. to cut “pure fentanyl, ... pressing it down into ... something that looks like a pill,” he said. The Preventing Rogue Equipment for Synthetic Substances, or PRESS, Act, criminalizes the “intentional importation of unlisted precursor chemicals and related equipment, including tableting machines, encapsulating machines, press punches, die systems, and gelatin capsules, that will be used to manufacture controlled substances,” according to the congressman's office.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Asked & Answered by Soul, Jennifer Urezzio welcomes back Marcy Newman—known as the Hardship Coach—for a powerful and heartfelt conversation on what it truly means to live a high‑vibration life. Together, Jennifer and Marcy explore how living “high vibe” is not about bypassing challenges, but about radical self‑intimacy, conscious choice, and aligning action quickly with soul guidance. Marcy shares how her relationship with her soul has evolved from receiving guidance and questioning it, to living in such deep flow that guidance and action are nearly indistinguishable. Key themes include: Why prosperity always follows passion How individualized spiritual practices are essential (there is no one “right” way) The importance of creating a daily sacred practice that actually works for you How to maintain a high vibration even when the world feels heavy or chaotic Marcy introduces a simple yet life‑changing practice she calls becoming a “Love Detective”—a daily practice of noticing what brings joy, peace, expansion, and delight, and consciously allowing those moments to rewire your frequency. The conversation also dives into deeper questions around fluidity, purpose, letting go of limiting beliefs, and following bliss unapologetically. Marcy shares how trusting the intelligence of the Universe allows her to stay rooted in love, even amidst global uncertainty. The episode closes with a powerful reminder: freedom comes from authenticity, and the soul is always guiding us toward more love, more truth, and more alignment—if we're willing to listen.

"The United States does not have a national cancer registry. We have a bunch of state registries. Some of those registries do collaborate and share information, but the issue is the registries that do exist typically do not report cancer by occupation. So, we cannot get our arms around the potential work-relatedness of the health outcome given the current way the state registries collect information. What we're trying to set up, is a way to make what is currently an invisible risk, visible," ONS member Melissa McDiarmid, MD, MPH, DABT, professor of medicine and epidemiology and public health director of the division of occupational and environmental medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the University of Maryland School of Medicine Hazardous Drug Safety Center Exposure Registry.

Highlights From This Episode "We thought that in order to answer some of the unclear questions about health risk, we would set up an exposure registry, in this case, for oncology personnel who handle the drugs. This would then create a cohort that we could ask questions to. For example, we could try to characterize whether there is a cancer excess in this group. Or characterize the reproductive abnormalities in excess that people are experiencing." TS 6:21 "It's sort of counterintuitive that the healthcare industry, whose mission itself is care of the sick, is a high-hazard industry. We typically think about the risk as being from infectious diseases, and certainly we've all lived in our practice lifetime through some examples of that. Even before COVID-19, some of us were doing preparation for Ebola and that sort of thing. So, we're kind of used to that. But the hazards that you kind of grew up with, we've routinized or normalized handling group one, human carcinogens, which a number of these drugs are—it's just something we do every day. Well, it is, but we have to do it with respect and with care every day. And I think sometimes in that routineness of it, we have sort of lost sight of the vigilance that we need to maintain." TS 11:19 "It's very easy in the life cycle of a drug in an organization to do something that doesn't just impact you, but unknowingly, you've contaminated a surface for somebody who comes behind you. Who maybe doesn't have plastic protective equipment on because something that got contaminated shouldn't have been contaminated in the first place. If we could all be thinking of it as more of a team sport, especially in terms of safe handling, that our disposition and drug handling affects not just us and our health, but those of our colleagues." TS 24:47 "For the job history pieces, we ask what year you started, what year you stopped, and we ask about estimations of handling. So we'll be able to come up with either a duration or some kind of metric for the intensity and duration of your handling history, which will then permit us to sort the population who completed the survey into sort of low, medium, high. And we'll see whether the health outcomes that are being reported are influenced by that drug handling history." TS 27:45 "The idea that we aren't exposed to the same therapeutic dose we give to our patients is absolutely true. However, the dosing schedule to them versus us is very different, and we are exposed frequently, if not daily, to very small concentrations. They don't reach a cytotoxic dose necessarily, but we do know from a lot of studies that either ourselves or our colleagues are taking up drug from contaminated work environments. And you've probably seen there is an awful lot of intermediate evidence looking at genotoxic insult in pharmacists and nurses who handle the drugs. So clearly we're showing uptake and we're showing that there are biologically plausible, concerning measures that are taking place in us. So, I think that we need to come back and circle around the idea that we need to have deep respect for the toxicity of these agents." TS 35:03

Mary Fusillo is a registered nurse and founder of Family Solutions International, with decades of experience in infertility care, egg donation, surrogacy, and third-party reproduction. Her work focuses on ethical fertility practices, patient advocacy, and helping families navigate complex reproductive decisions with clarity and care. Mary M. Fusillo, RN, BSN, MS is the founder and CEO of Family Solutions International. Mary was introduced to the area of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility while facing her own challenge of having children. As the Clinical Nursing Director of an Infertility clinic in Houston, she was instrumental in starting the Donor Egg program and recruiting their first donors. This program went from one donor in the Fall of 1999 to over 120 in 2004. Moving to the greater Washington, D.C. area, Mary becomes the Clinical Infertility Nursing Director at one of the oldest and most prestigious infertility clinics in the United States. With over 200 cycles of donor egg per year, managing donors and recipients while introducing new recruitment methods was a challenge. Recruited by one of the largest Pharmacy Benefit Management companies to run their Donor Egg pharmacy program, she traveled all over the country, consulting large and small clinics on issues that affect egg donation nationwide. She is a member of the Nurses Professional Group of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, a former National Board Member of RESOLVE, Inc., as well as a member of ASRM and ESHRE. Her volunteer work in the field of infertility led her to found “Donor Moms, a network of support for mothers via egg donation”. In 2007 Mary started The Donor Solution. On August 14, 2007, the website went live, and she started recruiting donors, and the company had its first match in October 2007. She started with only 19 donors but a short time later she had recruited 100's of screened donors to meet a burgeoning need for alternatives to the small donor pools found in IVF clinics.  After feeling like The Donor Solution was doing well, Mary launched 3 Sisters Surrogacy in 2012, because she saw a need for people who needed both donor eggs and surrogacy. In 2018,Mary put The Donor Solution and 3 Sisters Surrogacy under the Family Solutions International umbrella as a bridge to the domestic and international community. In 2020, she started The Fertility Consultants with the mission to assist intended parents in navigating the challenges of 3rd Party reproduction and finally merged all the companies together under the FSI umbrella. In the fall of 2019, Mary started a Ph.D. program in bioethics, over her 25+ years of infertility and 35 years in healthcare, she was constantly confronted with moral and ethical issues. Even now, a single embryo transfer is fraught with issues of people wanting twins. She decided to get her Ph.D. in bioethics because she wanted to understand the ethical aspects of this biological field deeper and felt there needed to be an ethicist who had a very deep background in infertility.

The Nurses Report on America Out Loud with Melissa Schreibfeder, BSN, RN, BC-FMP – America's public health landscape shifts as childhood vaccination schedules are revised and new dietary guidelines emphasize whole foods and nutrient density. The discussion explores competing narratives, evolving policy priorities, and what these changes mean for families, clinicians, and the future of health decision-making in the United States...

Our crew was dispatched to a high energy, rollover MVC with a patient ejection, which usually demands aggressive trauma protocols. But what happens when the patient is equipped with a HeartMate II, a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) that pumps blood for failing hearts. The irony is that this extremely sophisticated medical device that keeps our patient alive, also precludes our team from gathering regular vital signs, like a palpable pulse or traditional blood pressure measurements. How does the team manage a trauma resuscitation when the patient's circulation is a continuous flow rather than a beat? The trick is going to back to the basics of trauma care. Listen in and find out how this case unfurled.   Interested in obtaining CE credit for this episode? Visit OnlineAscend.com to learn more.

Jim talks with Julie McFadden, RN, known to millions as Hospice Nurse Julie, about death in a honest, open, and surprisingly comforting chat. Drawing on her years in hospice care, Julie shares what people experience at end of life, why talking openly about dying can actually bring relief, and how acknowledging our mortality can help us live with more clarity and purpose. Her insights come from being at the bedside with patients and families during their most vulnerable moments, and they carry the calm assurance of someone who has seen this up close many times. The conversation also moves into compelling paranormal territory, touching on "visioning," deathbed experiences, and moments that don't fit neatly into medical explanations. Julie recounts stories of patients seeing deceased loved ones and feeling a sense of comfort or presence near the end, including one experience that continues she'll never forget. -- JOIN JIM'S SPOOKY STUDIO PLUS CLUB You can get access to Jim's entire back catalog of Campfire and a TON of exclusive content with the Spooky Studio Plus Club.
