Trigger Warning: Episode Involves Organ Donation Complications
Information presented is alleged and under ongoing investigation.
In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Erica and Nurse Jessica discuss the controversial case of Anthony "T.J." Hoover, who was declared brain dead but later showed signs of consciousness during the organ donation process. The conversation delves into the family's harrowing experience, the whistleblower accounts from medical professionals involved, and the urgent need for reform in organ donation practices. The whistleblowers share personal experiences and insights into the pressures faced by organ procurement organizations (OPOs) to meet metrics, the lack of oversight, and the potential biases in donor evaluations.
Congress is now involved in investigating the practices of organ donation organizations.

EP 58: Patient Abandonment - What Nurses Need to Know!
Épisode 108
mardi 30 juillet 2024 • Durée 01:00:01
In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica discuss the topic of patient abandonment.

Nurse Erica shares a personal story related to patient abandonment. In this conversation, Nurse Jessica Sites and Nurse Erica discuss examples of patient abandonment, including sleeping at work, providing incompetent care, or failure to assess patients. They also address what is not considered patient abandonment, such as refusing overtime or quitting a job without notice. The nurses emphasize the importance of knowing your state's specific regulations, scope of practice, and advocating for patients and yourself.

EP 57: Whiteboard News: Gypsy Rose Blanchard, Donald Trump & Other Controversies
Épisode 106
mardi 23 juillet 2024 • Durée 55:22
In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica introduce a new segment called Whiteboard News Updates. They discuss various current topics related to nursing and healthcare. The first topic is about Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who was a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy and recently released from prison. She is now pregnant and facing controversy regarding her use of a home fetal doppler without medical training. This can lead to misinterpretation and/or a false sense of security. The second topic is about a nurse practitioner in Colorado who is under investigation for performing unsupervised invasive procedures at a fertility clinic. The third topic involves the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. Nurses and healthcare professionals have recently been terminated as a result of posting their political views on social media. Nurse Erica and Jessica emphasize the importance of not violating social media policies and the potential repercussions it can have on one's job. The final topic deals with the controversial California Board of Nursing Maximus program, a recovery and alternative to discipline program for nurses with addiction, diversion or mental health issues. The program has faced criticism for its frequent changing of policies without communication, high costs, and lack of support for nurses. Nurses in the program have shared their horror stories of the program, facing financial burdens, and experiencing mental health issues. The California Board of Nursing has been called upon to address the issues with the Maximus program and provide better support for nurses.

EP 53: Union Busting Exposed!
Épisode 92
mardi 25 juin 2024 • Durée 01:22:18
Sarah Johnson, a registered nurse, joins Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica to discuss the process of organizing a union at her workplace, Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital in Michigan. Sarah shares the alleged reasons why nurses at her facility are seeking to unionize, including budget cuts, reduced benefits, and poor working conditions. She describes the tactics used by management to discourage unionization, such as empty promises, division among nurses, and a union buster. The conversation explores the tactics used by union busters and the importance of educating nurses about these tactics ahead of time. It emphasizes the need for nurses to expect and recognize union busting strategies and not fall for them. In this conversation, Sarah Johnson, Nurse Erica, and Nurse Jessica Sites discuss the various tactics used by employers to discourage nurses from unionizing. They cover topics such as misinformation about unions, delaying union elections, manipulating numbers, last-minute surprises, recruiting employees to do anti-union work, captive audience meetings, and temporary improvements to working conditions. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing and not falling for these union-busting tactics. The hosts also encourage nurses to sign union interest cards and stay informed about their rights.
"Expect it, recognize it, don't fall for it."
Sign the cards!
