On this episode of The WoMed, D and Dani answer the question: what do nurses actually do? The answer to which turns out to be pretty much everything. The two women’s day-to-day activities vary greatly, as D works in the NICU and Dani in the ICU, but even nurses who work in the same unit often face completely different schedules and responsibilities. D and Dani cover what a typical day may look like for them as care coordinators, dot connectors, and practitioners of hard and soft sciences. Then, they dive into nursing questions including the role of nurses in the background versus foreground, the theory of a nurse as a wounded healer, and what nurses can’t do... which isn’t much, if anything at all!
