37. RNMD: IMPACT in Healthcare Walk in DC


Listen Later

On November 7 2021, IMPACT will bring together interdisciplinary healthcare workers from across the US to march together on Washington DC. The current system prioritizes profit over patient and healthcare workers' wellbeing. It's time for a change. Join us on November 7 to march for a better system for everyone. 

(Abby’s audio was a little wonky in a couple areas, sorry about this)
