In this episode, we interview Sara Marlow, a Family Nurse Practitioner practicing in California.  We were thrilled to get to chat with Sara and learn about all she is doing to Care for Healthcare and make an impact right where she is.  Sara gives us great insight into the role of the nurse practitioner and how they will be important moving forward as we see healthcare changing.  We dive deep into the topic of full practice authority for Nurse Practitioners.  We talk about what exactly full autonomy for NPs means, the present obstacles, and what changes are needed in the future. We finish out the conversation by discussing how we, as healthcare providers, can support each other and move toward positive change, as we keep patients at the forefront of our decision-making process.  No doubt, you will enjoy this conversation we had with Sara.  Thanks for listening in.

In this episode, we talk about what you need to know about a potential employer, particularly a hospital organization, prior to accepting a new position.  This episode is crammed full of great information you will not want to miss!  We talk about how to determine whether an organization is right for you.  We discuss two important documents that any employee or potential employee should be sure to view. We even tell you how to find them.  Alan tells a story about when he used these documents to make a big decision.  We finish it out with some great things we are loving this week.

In this episode, Alan interviews fellow-podcaster, Dave Denniston, of the Freedom Formula for Physicians Podcast. Dave shares his amazing story of how he began serving physicians through his website doctorfreedompodcast.com. In an effort to “give back” to the physicians and medical team that have been such an integral part of his family’s journey in life, Dave set out to help physicians slash their debt, slash their taxes and live a liberated lifestyle.

In this episode, we talk about the high-cost burden that is placed on hospitals and healthcare organizations due to use of staffing agencies to fill in nursing and other staff needs.  What would happen if an organization chose not to settle for routine use of staffing agencies, but instead chose to focus on better retention strategies?  We define what a staffing agency is and where the idea to use staffing agencies originated.  We talk about what value staffing agencies bring to the table and whether or not it is a cost worth avoiding.  You will also hear us talk about the meaning behind our podcast’s name.  We also share a great resource where you can find out where to safely donate to victims of Hurricane Harvey.

This episode is an interview with a new family nurse practitioner, Courtney Keller.  Courtney is a former NICU nurse, who finished her NP program this past April (2017).  We talk all about her background and what has led her to this point.  We discuss the process she went through as she applied and interviewed for different jobs.  She has a great recommendation about when to start applying for jobs as a new NP.  You will hear her tell us some of her biggest concerns as a new grad and what she wished she had known prior to graduating.  She even discloses the best and hardest part about working with a Physician.

On this episode, we talk about whether or not our current healthcare system can continue to sustain the cost of the Traditional Recruitment Model.  We talk about how this whole idea of the recruitment industry started and how we got to this point.  We discuss the two types of recruitment contracts that hospitals and organizations utilize.  How much money is actually spent on the recruitment of even one Physician or Hospital Executive?  We also talk about what we believe to be a much more cost-efficient alternative to the traditional recruitment approach.  Listen in and join our conversation.
