Happy Nurses Week! Let’s talk about things that matter to nurses with a wonderful guest, nurse and lawyer, Irnise F. Williams, Esq. (AKA Your Nurse Lawyer). Irnise and Adrianne are focusing on two important themes for nurses in 2022: Growth and Protection.

Irnise brings her expertise and insights on ways nurses can protect their licenses, practice, and integrity. They also explore ways nurses can harness their skills and talents for reaching their goals at and away from the bedside.

This is a valuable episode full of insights and perspectives that will make you think, evaluate your own strategies and goals, and set you on a path to achieve them.

Please look to Irnise for more valuable wisdom and information by visiting her website at https://iwilliamslaw.com/

Trigger warning: In this episode, we talk in detail about topics some people may find traumatic. We will be taking about dead bodies, autopsy, crimes, suicide and other graphic topics. No personal patient information is revealed.

If you've made it this far, welcome to Season 3 of Nursing Uncensored. It's October so Adrianne will be celebrating Halloween and creepy things all month long. In that spirit, Adrianne invited back Dorothy, Medical Examiner Investigator to talk about her job in greater detail. She walks us through her role in both a hospital death and a community death investigation. We talk about the circumstances and processes involved with autopsy and decomposition of the human body. We also give some book recommendations for those of you who want to read more about the Medical Examiner role.
Join us for this creepy and informative conversation.
