Tune into the final portion of the first three-part conversation of “Mental Health Trailblazers, Psychiatric Nurses Speak Up,” where our host Indrias Kassaye will be connecting with three current MFP fellows to discuss the crucial role and representation of men in nursing.

Finally, within part three of this topic, Indrias is joined by Keith Carter, a third-year psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner as well as a doctor of nursing practice student at Rush University. His DNP scholarly clinical project is to implement a violence risk assessment tool on a community hospital psychiatric unit on Chicago’s South Side.

Join Keith and Indrias as they discuss strategies to increase the percentage of men in nursing, what's driving more young people from ethnic minority backgrounds into conditions of having mental health or behavioral health problems, and how to instill the importance of mental health and psychiatric services into at-risk communities.

Understand how factors such as the power and resiliency of patients, family, and therapy services come together to inspire nurses such as Keith to help continue on in their careers. Dive into how his engagement with the Minority Fellowship Program helped forge a road forward full of like-minded colleagues, unparalleled opportunities, and avenues to grow as a trained professional.
