In this entertaining episode, Adrianne, an inpatient nurse, and guest Kevin McFarlane, an ED nurse educator, explore the often-challenging relationship between ED and inpatient nurses. The duo shares personal experiences and insights on the issue while discussing its impact on patient care.

In this episode, Adrianne welcomes nurses Antra Boyd BSN, MSN, iRNPA, and Karen DiMarco RN, BSN, iRNPA, co-founders of RNegade.pro and RNegade podcast. Put these two together women together and there are electric crackles in the air from all the energy; Adrianne was excited to be in the mix for this conversation recorded back in the spring.

This episode was recorded back over the summer of 2021 while Adrianne was unemployed and unlicensed in Minnesota. She was able to get Amie and Sara of the Gritty Nurse podcast on the line (they’ve had a busy busy summer) to answer all her questions. Their focus is on Amie and Sara’s activism in their home country of Canada, pushing for safety and respect for nurses. They have created spaces for nurses in forums that had no nurses at the table and they’re going to talk about how they did it.

The leaves are turning colors here in Minneapolis, and the temps are slowly dropping. Change of season is upon us. Change is coming for Nursing Uncensored, too, and Adrianne is recording from an odd place to tell you all about it.

In this episode, there’s quite a bit of laughter, joy, and tears as they talk about David‘s new book Nurse Papa: 16 Meditations on Parenting from a Pediatric Oncology Nurse. In this easy-to-devour paperback David shares stories, lessons, and perspectives about life through the lens of caring for kids facing their own mortality.

In this episode, Adrianne welcomes Nurse Practitioner, educator, mentor, blogger, cancer survivor, and mom, Courtney Shihabuddin, DNP, APRN-CNP. She recounts her surreal experience being diagnosed with breast cancer just as COVID was causing the overwhelm and shutdown of healthcare facilities across the country in early 2020. She takes us through the timeline of her treatment, surgeries and complications very openly, candidly, and with just enough humor to keep us from losing our composure.

In this episode, Adrianne welcomes David Metzger, pediatric oncology nurse, podcaster, author, and father. He is gracious enough to open up about all of these roles, how they all blend together, and how he is using them to entertain and teach us.

In this episode, Adrianne welcomes fellow podcaster and nurse, Rosa Dominguez Horsley, a Puerto Rican nurse living in Virginia. Many thanks to Rosa for opening up about her experiences as a woman of color and a nurse in the United States.
