Calling All Nurses
As newly retired nurses, we continue our passion for helping the public understand the scope, challenges, and rewards of contemporary nursing practice, using the lived experiences of point of care nurses. In Season 1 we spoke with nurses making change with challenges of social concern, such as Indigenous health, the toxic drug poisoning crisis, planetary health, public health and the pandemic, and challenges in acute care.
In Season 2, we are speaking with nurses in positions of influence provincially, in B.C., nationally, in Canada, and internationally. Season 2 is available now!

Calling All Nurses - S2, Episode 9 - Summer Summary
Get set to listen as some of our Season Two guests convene and reflect collaboratively on key takeaways from listening and learning from each other at Calling All Nurses and their greatest wish for nurses and nursing right now.
In Episode 6, Adriane Gear compared the current landscape of nursing like a plane just waiting and ready for takeoff. Continuing the metaphor, the outstanding leadership our guests represented this season are packed and ready for a new era of nursing, trying new solutions, and committed to transforming health systems while respecting what needs to stay or change. Season One was aptly summarized as a Love Letter to Nursing. The summary for Season Two that emerged is Nursing as the Heartbeat of Healthcare, fearlessly, boldly, and compassionately moving forward. As Leigh Chapman stated, rethinking the way in which we value nursing is key…seeing it as an investment in society rather than a cost center plugging holes, shifts the power. This episode is brimming with key messages and reflections from all the guests. Don’t miss it!
We can't wait for Season 3 and will be sure to notify you when it's ready!
