The Floor is on Fire

SHIFT Talk is a podcast that brings nurses together to talk about the challenges we're facing—on and off the clock. This season, we’re interviewing nurses who are working to ensure all patients can access the resources and care they need to be healthy. In other words, it’s all about health equity. We’re going beyond the clinical and looking at the social factors that impact health—from a person’s zip code, to their education, to their job. Even structural racism. No healthcare provider knows more about patients’ lives than nurses, right? We can really make an impact here.
