Episode 12: Scrubbed in and Speaking Out – Occupational Health and Safety

Saison 12 · Épisode 1

jeudi 30 avril 2026 • Durée 25:24

In this episode of Scrubbed In and Speaking Out, we explore what Occupational Health and Safety really means in today’s health care system—and why it goes far beyond physical safety.

For nurses, workplace safety is shaped by a combination of factors: workload, staffing levels, workplace violence, fatigue, and the systems in place to support them. When these pressures build, they impact not only nurses, but the quality and safety of patient care.

In this conversation, we discuss:

Why Occupational Health and Safety extends beyond physical risk

The realities of workplace violence in health care

Why Incidents often go unreported—and why that matters

The role of documentation, and advocacy

Nurses’ rights, including the right to refuse unsafe work

How stronger systems and supports can improve safety for both nurses and patients

Safety in health care doesn’t happen by chance. It requires investment, accountability, and systems designed to support the people delivering care every day.

What does “safe staffing saves” actually mean?

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

mercredi 1 avril 2026 • Durée 20:17

In Episode 10 of Scrubbed In and Speaking Out, RNU President Yvette Coffey breaks down how staffing levels impact everything in our health care system—from patient outcomes to nurse retention to overall system costs.

When nurses are working short, the consequences are immediate: increased workloads, delayed care, and growing pressure across the system. Over time, that leads to burnout, retention challenges, and a system that becomes more expensive to sustain.

This episode also explores solutions put forward in RNU’s Budget 2026 submission, including investing in the public system, reducing reliance on private agencies, and implementing a modern core staffing review.

The message is clear: safe staffing saves lives, saves resources, and strengthens our public health care system.
