October 15, 2024 EP 70: Hurricane Preparedness: Supporting Nurses in Times of Crisis
In this engaging conversation, Nurse Jessica Sites and Nurse Erica discuss a variety of topics surrounding Hurricane Milton and challenges nurses face during crisis situations. They dive into hurricane preparedness and the difficult decisions surrounding evacuation. They also touch on the impact of natural disasters on healthcare workers and highlight community relief efforts aimed at supporting nurses in need. Nurses struggle to access resources like gas during a crisis and community support is crucial.

September 24, 2024 EP 67: The Power Of Nursing Unions: How They're Changing The Game
In this episode guest Julia Godby-Murray returns to share her experience and involvement with nursing union organizing. The conversation explores the importance of unions in advocating for nurses' rights and improving working conditions. It emphasizes the need for nurses to actively support legislation and join unions to bring about change. The conversation also highlights success stories of nurses standing up for their rights and the significance of having a seat at the table in decision-making processes. Fear of retaliation from management should not deter nurses from joining unions. In the final part of the conversation, the nurses discuss the importance of attending union meetings, negotiating contracts, and standing up for oneself in the workplace. Change isn't going to happen unless we do it!

September 14, 2024 EP 65: Kapi'olani Medical Center, Hawaii, Nursing Strike
Bonus Episode!!
On September 13th, 2024, 600 nurses exerted their legally protected right participating in an unfair labor practice strike at Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children. The nurses are represented by the Hawaii Nurses Association/OPEIU Local 50 union. This is their second strike this year. The first one was a seven day strike in January. The 9/13/2024 strike was a planned one-day only strike. Despite the short duration, the hospital went to the media (allegedly) to announce their plans to lockout the nurses indefinitely when they attempt to return to work on September 14, 2024. In addition to being an illegal lockout, it has the potential for setting a very dangerous precedent for nurses and unions everywhere.
Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica traveled to Honolulu, Hawaii to support the Kapi'olani nurses. This podcast was recorded on the actual strike line. The hosts share their experiences and what they witnessed. Four of the striking nurses are interviewed and share their individual experiences. Erica and Jessica would like to thank the Kapi'olani nurses and the Hawaii Nurses Association/OPEIU Local 50 for welcoming them.
