See You Now Podcast

It’s been a hot 12 months – according to the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service, June 2024 was the thirteenth consecutive month of record-breaking global temperatures. In this episode, we feature a sampler and playlist of how nurses are at the forefront of addressing and responding to the health and economic impacts of extreme heat and weather-related events.

Recorded live at the 2023 DNPs of Color conference, hear from five extraordinary nurse leaders who are shifting entrenched power dynamics and blazing new trails of opportunity for nurses of color and the profession as a whole.

From our first episode, SEE YOU NOW has been focused on trailblazers, changemakers and pioneers, and our 100th episode features a nurse who embodies these values. Virginia Allen, LPN is the last known living Black Angel, part of a group of Black nurses recruited from the Jim Crow South whose tireless efforts led to a cure for tuberculosis, a disease responsible for nearly 18% of New York City deaths in the early 1900s. This story follows the Black Angels who, for twenty years, risked their lives working under dreadful conditions while caring for the city’s poorest and played a major role in desegregating New York City hospitals along with nursing practice, education, and professional associations including the American Nurses Association.

Homelessness across the U.S. is on the rise. The National Alliance to End Homelessness reports the number of unsheltered and chronically homeless individuals and families has climbed ~6% annually since 2017, and an estimated 582,462 people experienced homelessness across America in 2022. Advocacy groups and researchers say a big driving force is the decline of affordable housing, a problem decades in the making but one that has grown significantly worse in the past few years. And when people lose their homes, housing and shelter, their lives, health, and safety become far more complex and at risk.

In our Meeting of Minds series, we invite you to listen in on conversations between leaders driving innovation in and outside of healthcare. In this episode, Audria Denker DNP, RN, FAADN, ANEF, Juatise Gathings, and Emily Fairchild, ADN, two leaders and a nursing student, compare notes on investing and building opportunity in under-resourced communities while simultaneously achieving business enterprise goals.

In this episode, we meet Indigenous nurse researcher John Lowe RN, PhD, FAAN, and discover how he is addressing the long-standing structural impediments that have kept American Indian, Alaska Native and Indigenous youth from connecting to their cultural heritage and identities.
