Be the Change You Want to See, Part 2

This time around Nurse Nikki talks about her true passion - maternal health - and how the community she is closest to is being crushed by COVID. A self-dubbed “street nurse,” Nikki is a health support and advocate for many of New Orleans’ unhoused young mothers of color. These women were already in crisis before COVID, but today they need Nikki more than ever before.

Om Podcasten

SHIFT Talk is a podcast that brings nurses together to talk about the challenges we're facing—on and off the clock. This season, we’re interviewing nurses who are working to ensure all patients can access the resources and care they need to be healthy. In other words, it’s all about health equity. We’re going beyond the clinical and looking at the social factors that impact health—from a person’s zip code, to their education, to their job. Even structural racism. No healthcare provider knows more about patients’ lives than nurses, right? We can really make an impact here.
