Nurses Against Violence Unite w/Dr. Sandy

On this week's episode, it is my honor to have Dr. Susan Dawson joining us on NurseTalk to talk about Emotional Dissonance.  Dr. Dawson is a board-certified clinical nurse specialist and nurse practitioner in adult psychiatry. She has served as a doctorally prepared professor, Director, and Dean of nursing for 30 years in Iowa, Texas, Illinois, Missouri, and has had a practice since being certified 27 years ago in advanced nursing. Her practice has focused on underserved populations. The health and wellness of her clients encompass a holistic approach to mental and behavioral health services to achieve the best outcome for each patient.

Within the populations she serves, she has identified increased issues of addiction and has added these skills to her practice. Her goal is to work in an integrated way to increase comprehensive care with an understanding of these issues in addition to underlying mental health issues. Her passion is to serve clients and to prepare others to care for the mental health of those in need. Recently Dr. Dawson has been appointed to the Federal Intergovernmental Agency Advisory Board on Substance Use.

Through her 48 years of nursing practice, she has learned the art of listening. She spends her time listening to the needs of her clients and helping them to get the best life possible.

Joining us all the way from the UK, Dr. Ruth Mary Allen is sharing her expertise with Brain Health and techniques that Healthcare workers can use during stressful times.  Like & Subscribe for new updates!

NurseTalk w/Dr. Sandy's Special Guest the is week is Dr. Lori Wichman and talking about her research project "Incivility and the Effects on the New Graduate Nurse".

Something that we are all guilty of....self-defeating talk. With so much that we are working on, and the added stressors in our lives, it is paramount that we decrease the mental cluster f and break the habit of the vicious cycle. We each have this ability to break free, now it is time to stop the insanity.

Please join us live every Tuesday at 730pm EST on our main Facebook page: Facebook.com/NAVUnite to interact with Dr. Sandy

Getting worse every day before and with #COVID patients, stretched staff to earth-shattering deficits in safety that would make OSHA cry in a corner. 

When does this stop? 

It can stop with us not allowing it to continue.

Statistics show that it ultimately affects our mental health, impedes patient care, and quality of life.

The incivility ends with each of us! NursesAgainstViolence.org
