Wow. Nurses, be ready to be blown away. My favorite part of this Your Next Shift interview, when Amy boldly states: “Nurses ARE leaders”. This episode is full of heart, head, and action. So sit back and enjoy the podcast.

Amy Berman, BS, RN, LHD is a nurse and Senior Program Officer with the John A. Hartford Foundation.  She works on the Foundation’s development and dissemination of innovative, cost-effective models of care that improve the health of older adults.  Among these efforts, Ms. Berman is responsible for the Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative.

A few take aways from our interview with Amy Berman, BS, RN, LHD include:

• How you need to ask for what you want in order to make progress;
• What listening to another person can do -and not do- for your nursing career;
• And why if you haven’t failed, you haven’t taken a risk!
