Nurse Talk

California’s historic first-in-the-nation safe staffing ratios, sponsored by the California Nurses Association, took 13 years to win. The legislation has now been in effect since January 2004 despite continued efforts from the hospital industry to overturn the law. Safe RN to patient ratios have been proven to improve the quality of care and nurse recruitment and retention in California hospitals. Director of Nurse Practice Safety for California Nurses Association, National Nurses United Gerard Brogan joins us for this podcast.

Introducing, the Old Coots. That’s right they’re the self-proclaimed Old Coots giving Bad Advice and they are with us today. They aren’t a household name yet but they are popping up everywhere because---well---people need advice and apparently, they don’t care if it’s good.

It all started when a group of retired friends who meet every Saturday morning at a Salt Lake City deli were growing tired of the same conversation each week. They wanted to share their wisdom beyond their friend group of seven. As a lark, they set up a card table at the nearby farmers market and told people they were dispensing free advice. Have some fun and check out this all new podcast!

This week we share one of the most critical Nurse Talk Radio interviews of 2018---The State of the Nurses’ Union with RN and Co-President of National Nurses United, Deborah Burger. At a time when the Republican Party is set on the destruction of organized labor in this country National Nurses United (the largest Union of Registered Nurses with over 150,000 members) is gaining members and momentum both nationally and globally. "When fighting for our patients, nurses are stronger when we come together" said Burger.
