Hate for others. Hate for yourself. Hate due to misinformation. Hate that leads to violence. Hate that results in isolation. Hate that creates poverty. Hate that leads to fear. Hate that causes inequality. Hate that prevents people from getting what they need - including appropriate healthcare. Hate causes illness, pain, injury, mental health problems, trauma, and death.

This is a real email I received and almost missed in my inbox! I want to share it publicly because I know other pre-nursing students will have this same question in the future. Since this is all my opinion (although I based my answer on reality) I’d love to hear other opinions in the comments. Hi there, Ever since I decided to go back to school to pursue nursing I’ve been listening to your podcast and I just want to say thank you for all of the information you share.

It happens to the best of us. Perhaps you weren’t the most diligent of undergrad nursing students and your GPA reflected it. However, now you are mature, life is different, and you want to go to graduate school to become a nurse practitioner, but you do not meet the minimum requirements to apply to NP school. Are you doomed and out of luck forever? No, definitely not.

While there is some evidence that the curve of coronavirus (COVID-19) cases is starting to flatten in some of the worst-hit areas in the country, we are a long way from being able to declare an end to the pandemic. We’re even further from being able to return to business as usual in key sectors of the economy—especially hospitals, which are not only on the frontlines of the crisis, but also suffering from loss of revenues related to elective surgeries.

Today’s workforce includes multiple generations of employees all looking for something different from their benefits package. While meeting these disparate needs can be challenging, a comprehensive fertility benefit can support everyone from junior staffers learning about their fertility health to senior leadership managing menopause and low testosterone symptoms.

The World Health Organization proclaimed 2020 the Year of the Nurse and Midwife. None of us could have anticipated how prescient that would be. This year has seen nurses all over the world step up and battle coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) fearlessly, often while navigating evolving guidance and operating under difficult conditions with strained resources.

Cathy Yeulet/123RF.com Completing a degree in healthcare is quite an accomplishment. Years of rigorous courses, studying and memorizing large amounts of information, and attending countless hours of clinical experience can feel like climbing Mt. Everest, but the excitement and anticipation of a new career upon finishing is a welcome reward. Unfortunately, sometimes that eagerness to get to work with your new degree is quickly replaced by discouragement over the job market, the interview process,

Months have gone by since my last blog post (the podcast has been getting all my TLC), and it’s clear the world is a very different place now compared to when I wrote that last entry. We’re in the early stages of a global pandemic, and the state I live in not only has not yet hit its peak but also is being very lax about social distancing and stay-at-home orders.

When I graduated and became a licensed and certified pediatric nurse practitioner (PNP) last summer, I had no idea that my first year working as a PNP would involve working during a pandemic. COVID-19 has resulted in many changes that have affected each of us in different ways. Schools have closed their doors and moved classes online, graduations are being canceled/postponed, and healthcare professionals throughout the world have had to adjust the ways they care for their patients.

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

Remember how hard it was being a new nurse? No imagine that you are a new nurse during a pandemic. COVID-19 has been a challenge for everyone in the medical field but for our new nurses, it has been a real shift show. No one taught them to be prepared for a pandemic in nursing school. This year has been a real baptism by fire for us all, and one new nurse has jumped in head first into the chaos.

It is no secret that landing your first nursing job straight out of nursing school is no easy feat. We hear time and time again that there is a “nursing shortage.” Despite this, it is still challenging for new nurse grads to get their foot in the door without having previous nursing work experience, and because not all hospitals and facilities are willing to train new graduate nurses.

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. Before educating employees, we first need to understand the rising healthcare costs and the financial burden of fertility care.
