In a moment marked by rising geopolitical instability, accelerating climate change, recurring pandemics, and deep economic uncertainty, nursing stands at a critical crossroads. The global nursing workforce is already under severe strain, and the World Health Organization projects a shortfall of approximately 4.5 million nurses by 2030. Yet, even as health needs become more complex, health funding is being reduced in many parts of the world while defense spending rises, deepening the resource constraints facing nurses and other frontline health workers.  So, what does it truly mean to invest in nursing?  For the International Council of Nurses, it means speaking value to power, making the case consistently and convincingly, that nurses are essential to the stability and well-being of individuals, families, communities, and entire nations. It means pushing forward despite workforce shortages, policy barriers, violence, and chronic underfunding. It means dismantling myths and hierarchies and advancing rigorous research to demonstrate the economic and societal return on educating, compensating, and recognizing nurses as the indispensable professionals they are.  In this episode, Oriana Beaudet, VP of Innovation at the American Nurses Association, Credentialing Center, and Foundation, connects with Howard Catton, the Chief Executive Officer of the International Council of Nurses, who is driving global efforts to support nurses at the ICN. Together, they explore the inventive strategies, advocacy work, and bold solutions shaping the future of nursing. And talk about what it means to meet global challenges with clarity, commitment, and heart. 

In this Insight from Episode 105: Fostering Kids ❤️ Fostering Families, nurse and former foster youth Sharrica Miller, PhD, RN, illustrates how lived experience enriches nursing practice.  Drawing on her journey through the foster system, she's creating programs that meet the physical, emotional, and practical needs of foster youth while empowering them to advocate for themselves. Her story reminds us that every nurse's life experience offers valuable insight, and that caring for the whole person means addressing the barriers that stand between health, belonging, and opportunity.  To listen to this Insight clip's full episode visit SEE YOU NOW Podcast Episode 105: Fostering Kids ❤️ Fostering Families at APPLE, SPOTIFY, YOUTUBE, or at your favorite streaming platform.   For more information on the podcast bundles, visit ANA's Innovation Website at https://www.nursingworld.org/practice-policy/innovation/education.    Have questions or feedback for the SEE YOU NOW team?  Future episode ideas?

Implementing a national patient safety plan sounds straightforward on paper. In practice, it requires something far more challenging: shifting an entire organization's culture.  In this episode, Patricia McGaffigan, RN, VP, IHI; President, Certification Board for Professionals in Patient Safety, talks with the Vice President for Patient Safety and Compliance within Ascension, Kelly Randall, Ph.D. about how one of the nation's largest health systems is implementing the Safer Together National Action Plan across nearly 100 hospitals.   Their path forward involves creating tiered safety huddles that connect frontline nurses to executive leadership daily. They've launched programs like "We've Got Your Back" to protect those who speak up, and celebrate near misses alongside wins through their "Everyday Hero of Safety" recognition. They discuss how increased safety event reporting signals growing trust, not growing problems, and understanding that when nurses create workarounds, they're often highlighting things that do not work or broken systems.  This is a success story, but one that continues to unfold. It's about the ongoing work of opening communication channels, actively listening across all levels, breaking down hierarchical barriers, and continuous learning. As Kelly reminds us, sometimes you must walk, not run, to go faster when transforming culture. 

Aging is a story of adaptation, strength, and possibility. In this SEE YOU NOW Insight, from Episode 50: Owning Your Aging, nurse, researcher, and philosopher Sarah L. Szanton, PhD, ANP, FAAN shares the story of CAPABLE, Community Aging in Place, Advancing Better Living for Elders, a nurse-led program that helps older adults maintain independence and dignity by pairing home visits from a nurse and occupational therapist with simple, low-cost home modifications.  By focusing on what people want and need to do, like bathing, cooking, or walking to the mailbox, CAPABLE helps participants cut disability in half, boost confidence, and dramatically reduce healthcare costs. Through small, smart changes, Szanton reveals how prevention, creativity, and respect for individual goals can transform lives and redefine what it means to age well.  To listen to this Insight clip’s full episode visit SEE YOU NOW Podcast Episode 50: Owning Your Aging at APPLE, SPOTIFY, YOUTUBE, or at your favorite streaming platform.

In this SEE YOU NOW Insight, Don Berwick, MD, pioneer of the modern patient safety movement, explores the powerful relationship between quality and safety in healthcare. Drawing from his landmark work on waste and inefficiency with the RAND Corporation and lessons from Paul O’Neill’s safety transformation at Alcoa, Berwick reveals how excellence begins when the workforce feels safe, supported, and valued. When systems function as intended, both patients and clinicians thrive. Reminding us that quality care and safety are not separate goals, but one shared purpose.  To listen to this Insight clip’s full episode visit SEE YOU NOW Podcast Episode 123: Safer Together | The Architecture of a Movement at APPLE, SPOTIFY, or YOUTUBE or at your favorite streaming platform.

Hospital-acquired pneumonia is among the most serious and costly hospital-acquired infections in the United States. Yet, as nurse, educator, and historian Dian Baker, PhD, APRN-BC, PNP, PHN explains, prevention can begin with something as simple as a toothbrush.

Across healthcare, new technologies often land in the hands of nurses without their input, adding complexity instead of easing it. In the age of artificial intelligence, more than ever, leaving nurses out of the design process risks creating tools that miss the mark, fail to build trust, threaten safety and security, and can add to the very burdens they’re meant to relieve.  In this episode of our AI in Play series, we meet Ryannon Frederick, MS, RN, System Chief Nursing Officer at Mayo Clinic, who has restructured nursing leadership teams to ensure nurses identify the problems, co-develop the solutions, and remain partners from design through implementation and testing. Frederick shares how this “for nurses, by nurses” model is transforming innovation at Mayo, making nursing work visible, rebuilding trust in technology, and delivering tools like ambient documentation and nurse virtual assistants that give time back to patients and strengthen the workforce.  Find this episode’s resources at www.seeyounowpodcast.com, and for more information on the podcast bundles, visit ANA’s Innovation Website at:  https://www.nursingworld.org/practice-policy/innovation/education/.  Have questions for the SEE YOU NOW team?
