Me at ER for cardiac issues
Dr: “Could you be pregnant?”
Me: “No I had a hysterectomy”
Dr: “You look too young for that? Are you sure?”
Me: “I’m confident”
Dr: “I think you might be confused. Maybe it was your appendix.”

Relationship between nurse staffing during labor and cesarean birth rates in US hospitals. Better nurse staffing associated with lower cesarean birth rates and higher VBAC rates.

The premiere of Everybody's Work was amazing! To be in a space surrounded by nurses that I admire and respect is priceless. Good times and good memories. I am honored to be part of this historical movement in nursing.

Some thoughts at the end of #NursesWeek.
It’s been one where my heart wasn’t in “celebrating” being a #nurse. The world feels heavy. There is so much suffering. It’s been hard for me to focus.
But this is a week of honoring my call to nursing & our future:

This work - uplifting nursing students' experiences in active struggle - is finally out . I think of nursing students around the country who are silenced when asking & speaking up about genocide in Palestine. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

Nurse staffing in sync with pt acuity is consistently linked to better pt outcomes when compared to inadequate staffing.
Hospitals undervalue nurses and understaff their units because most of the time, they get away with it.
The best nurses’ week gift would be safe staffing.
The public consistently ranks nursing as the most trusted profession. So it's remarkable that employers routinely undervalue — and understaff — such essential workers. trib.al/icSfWaU
