Many of us were encouraged to eat healthy foods from a young age, but following this advice can be challenging. With Thanksgiving approaching, it becomes even harder to maintain balanced meals when friends, family, and even our patients offer us a slice of dessert as a gesture of appreciation. While completely ignoring sweets and carbs may not be the answer, practicing mindful eating habits, like savoring our food and showing compassion when we overeat, can boost nurses’ self-esteem during

Today’s workforce includes multiple generations of employees all looking for something different from their benefits package.

In raw numbers, that would be a deficit of 24,450 nurses — ranking New Jersey fourth in the nation in nursing deficit. It comes at the worst possible time for New Jersey, as an exodus of health care workers and an increasingly older population converge to strain the sys

Nurses gave passionate, at times pointed, testimony to lawmakers during a recent committee hearing where Ohio representatives heard more details about a proposed bill on staffing ratios that nurses said could be life-saving. House Bill 285 would set limits on the maximum number of patients a nurse working in a hospital setting would be responsible for, and establish a $20 million forgivable loan program to incentivize people to enter the profession.

Finally, some positive news in emergency preparedness for schools: Maryland’s new active shooter drill guidelines , set to take effect in the 2025 school year, mark a significant shift towards prioritizing student mental health while maintaining effective emergency readiness. As a school nurse who has long advocated for such changes, I’m heartened to see this growing recognition of the emotional toll that traditional emergency drills can impose on our students.

Massachusetts has taken a big step when it comes to addressing the nursing shortage in the state, but some people say it still won’t solve current staffing problems. On Wednesday, Gov. Maura Healey signed the state’s economic development bill, which included a measure to join the Nurse Licensure Compact. The agreement allows nurses to practice in other NLC-participating states — in person or via telehealth — without having to obtain a new license for that location.

An estimated 1.1 billion women worldwide will have experienced menopause by 2025. Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, and anxiety can be incredibly disruptive — and last for years. But despite its massive impact, little is being done to support those going through menopause in the workplace. In a recent survey, 70% of respondents said they have considered changing their employment to better manage symptoms — perhaps because only 8% received significant support from their employer related to meno

The Gypsy Nurse

Most travel nurses have adventurous spirits. We love going to new places, meeting new people, and having new experiences, and we will happily spend months upon months on assignments. Yet, most of us still enjoy the feeling of coming back home — unless that home is in severe disarray. Leaving a home unoccupied for months on end comes with risks. Homes require constant maintenance to keep safe and sound; neglected houses quickly become derelict.

Employee expectations around benefits and workplace support have evolved in step with the growing need for fertility and family-forming care. As HR professionals, it is our job to ensure employees have a comprehensive understanding of the benefits our organizations offer and how they can utilize them.
