A Seat at the Table: Nurses Leading the Call for Change

Tags: healthcare leadership leadership in nursing nursing community

This poem expresses my concern over injustice and loss of compassion in healthcare and all aspects of our society. It highlights nurses' trusted role in caring for vulnerable people and calls for change. I hope it inspires nurses to unite and lead in shaping healthcare policy because healthcare is a basic right and nurses must have a voice in decisions that affect us all.

Advocating for the Vulnerable: Upholding Core Values in Healthcare and Education

Tags: educating ethical standards healthcare leadership leadership

In both healthcare and education, true leadership embodies service over self-interest, building bridges instead of walls, and leading with integrity. Advocates in these fields play a crucial role in ensuring that individuals' voices, wishes, and preferences are heard, their rights are upheld, and their needs are met, particularly when they have difficulty speaking up for themselves.
