During the pandemic, this podcast addresses the impact of redeployment on nursing personnel. Nurses are asked to work in unfamiliar sectors and with coworkers needing more training or experience.

While nurses are unsung heroes who respond to society's demands, the strain on them is tremendous due to workforce shortages. Redeployment is a symptom of our deteriorating healthcare system since it stops the bleeding but does not address the fundamental issues.

 Nurses must safeguard their mental health and well-being, evaluate their circumstances and dangers, examine the department they are transferring to, and determine whether they want additional assistance.

Finally, individuals must remember that they are the priority and that "no" is a complete phrase. 

This podcast encourages nurses to think about all aspects of redeployment before making an informed decision that is best for them.

This space isn’t loud.

It doesn’t shout advice.

But if you let it,

A small pull toward the part of you

that still believes in why you began.

Not because it’s easy.

Because it’s yours.
