In this episode, Kevin has yet another conversation with Dr. Lisa Wolf. This time they discuss a recent study and manuscript called “Traumatic Stress in Emergency nurses: Does your work environment feel like a warzone?” In this study nurses reported high levels of secondary trauma stress and described in detail how traumatic stress manifested in their lives. Theses nurses described chronic, cumulative trauma that affected both their ability to provide nursing and even their ability to connect at home with friends and family. This episode is going to blow your mind. This is the most important AOEN podcast to date.

Take a look at her work mentioned in the episode Workplace bullying in emergency nursing: Development of a grounded theory using situational analysis. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28958419
