You know that's country. I'm gonna 28 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: tell you Some'm Shelley Anne or Shelley. I hear a 29 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: little accent there, my friend. Can you give me a 30 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: background on that accent because it is distinctive when you 31 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: communicate that. Say, this is a bad thing. But where 32 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: are you from? Originally born and raised? 33 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: I am. I originally hail from the island of Jamaica, 34 00:01:58,560 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: island of all. 35 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: Islands of Jamaica. Now the next question is, because this 36 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: accent is very distinct, when did you come over to America? 37 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: Okay, I came from America when I was twelve years old, 38 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: and I went straight to New York. 39 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: New York. And you still have this very beautiful accent. 40 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: You just won't give it up? Are you are? Like 41 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: you know, some people they are you know, like you 42 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 1: know you're an English actor. When they act, they can 43 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: talk real clear English. But then when you interview, like uh, 44 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: interests elbows like that, you know, he always blows me away. 45 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 2: Where you go? 46 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: What the brother that? The brother I saw on a 47 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: wire and the brother I saw wire? Where you come from? 48 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: And so so now you're not putting on a Jamaican front? 49 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: Are you right here? 50 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: Are you not? Not? At this time? Good? 51 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: I just want to have fun with yourn. My wife she's 52 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,679 Speaker 1: from the Island area, belife down there and belief in 53 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: so it's America. So oh yeah, you know she she 54 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: brags about it all the time every time she sees 55 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: the commercial. I told you, tells you and h and 56 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: so it's really good. But did the nursing profession. I 57 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: have a sister in law season in the nursing profession, 58 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: and so tell us about the pressure of being a nurse, 59 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: because sometimes we take you guys for granted. You come 60 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: in and we look at the doctor in a certain way, 61 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: and we look at the nurse in a certain way, 62 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: and then you have somebody called a nurse practitioner, which 63 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: is kind of like a new role. If you got time, 64 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: doctor don't have time for you, you can see the nurse practitioner. 65 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: So tell us the difference between a nurse, a nurse practitioner, 66 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: and then the doctor. 67 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: All right, So there are different levels, as you know, 68 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: and there are a number of roles that make up 69 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 2: the healthcare ecosystem. Right, So I am a registered nurse batrade. 70 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: So registered nursing nurses can have an associate's degree or 71 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: a bachelor's degree, or you can even have LPNs, right, 72 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: so that's a licensed life professional nurse. So you have 73 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: LPNs and you have RNs. But then on the master's level, 74 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: so that's a second degree. So on the master's level 75 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: you have your advanced practice nurses. Nurses that hold a 76 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 2: master's degree. The master's degree can be as a nurse practitioner. 77 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: You can have my master's. I have a dual master's 78 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 2: in nursing administration and informatics for that software and system design. 79 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: You can have a nurse educator, you could have forensic nursing. 80 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: So there are a number of different master's level master's 81 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 2: level role you can hold with you know, on the 82 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: same level with a nurse practitioner, including clinical nurse specialists, okay. 83 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 2: And then you also have a terminal degree as with 84 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 2: every career, you have a terminal degree in nurse and 85 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 2: so that's where you end appearing that some nurses might 86 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: have their doctorate, so they have a Doctorate of Nursing 87 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 2: practice degree or a PhD in nursing, So that's essentially 88 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 2: just a terminal degree for that nurses can hold. You 89 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 2: can have a doctorate in business administration, you still call 90 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 2: the doctor, right, But then a physician is a medical doctor, right, 91 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 2: So that's your traditional medical doctor that specializes in diagnoses 92 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: and treatment, okay. And the nurse practitioners are trained as 93 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 2: well to be able to provide quality keyer along those 94 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 2: same lines as providers and often function as an extension 95 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 2: of the provider as you previously mentioned. So there are 96 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 2: lots of opportunities to leverage nurse practitioners in different different settings, 97 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: whether it's in the clinic or in rural So there 98 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 2: are lots of opportunities to leverage nurse practitioners to be 99 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 2: an extension. Why because nursing is the largest health profession 100 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 2: there is globally. 101 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: Now, let me ask you this, Shelly. First of all, 102 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: I have to look at a nurse from a different perspective. 103 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: You threw up bout twelve titles set, and I've always 104 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: I just loved everybody who came in my room nurse, nurse, 105 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 1: and that's really kind of disrespectful. So I got to 106 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: pull back. Now, how can I be more respectful to 107 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: the nurse who comes in my room other than because 108 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: because each one brings a certain amount of knowledge, and 109 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: also each one has a title that amount of wherever, 110 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: Why isn't that distinguished a lot more? Because I do 111 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 1: know about the nurse, which right now I've realized is 112 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: like a dozen different nurses, and then I know about 113 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: the nurse practitioner by about fifty. So you even up 114 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: the ma I got a math degree, so you just 115 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: blew me out the water. So why is it? 116 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: Then? 117 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: Can I say that the nurse position is not respected? 118 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: Am I saying? Am I saying the wrong things? Because 119 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: of the fact that you say there are fifty different 120 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 1: positions that you can call nurse, But the salaries and 121 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: the respect for the roles that y'all play, I think 122 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: it's being underserved at least through this interview based on 123 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: the information you're giving me. 124 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I wouldn't say we're one hundred percent disrespective 125 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: because there are a number of us in the nursing 126 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: profession that are held in extremely high esteems. There are 127 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: some some things that we advocate for that that's one 128 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 2: of the things that advocacy is not middle name, but 129 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 2: there's some things we want to be seen as quality 130 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: care providers, right right, So that's one of the that's 131 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: every now and again it can be interpreted as a 132 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: low disrespect. Why because we want to be able to 133 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 2: practice to the highest level of what we were trained 134 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: to do, right, to be able to provide access to 135 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 2: care for so that Georgians and and just the people 136 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 2: that live in our communities can have better access to healthcare. 137 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: So at times there can be some disrespect there, but 138 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 2: we just want to make sure that we're working together 139 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 2: because as part of the interdisciplinary team, we all have 140 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 2: our roles to play and there's no need to you know, 141 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: put up barriers and roadblocks the kere if we can 142 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 2: help as nurses, if that makes sense. Well, just like 143 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: you mentioned, there are different levels of nurses. So one 144 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 2: of the things you said initially was how can you 145 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: put more respect on it? It really just depends on 146 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 2: the setting that you're in, right, right, So if you're 147 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: in a clinic and you might have a medical assistant 148 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 2: you as part of the team. You may have a 149 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: medical assistant, a registered nurse, and you might have a 150 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 2: nurse practitioner. So just just be respectful and kind. I mean, 151 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 2: it really just depends on the setting that you're in, 152 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: is what i'd say. Because in the hospitals, as we know, 153 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: the nurses provide more care time on the midside than 154 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: do any other health profession. But we work collaboratively as 155 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: an interdisciplinary team to here for the patients and you know, 156 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:57,839 Speaker 2: try to keep the story straight and make sure the 157 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: communication is there so that you're in going on with 158 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 2: your here and you know, we can streamline some things. 159 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,599 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, nurse, I'm gonna tell you, 160 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: I gotta see you now, you got me. I gotta 161 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: respect you now. So I'm sorry, I'm sir, I'm sorry. 162 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: I gotta call your nurse mackenzie now, okay, Nurse McKenzie. 163 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: When we talk about is there a shortage of nurses? 164 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: Because I've always heard that rumor that there's a shortage 165 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: of nurse in the trafficer. Why is there a shortage 166 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: of nurses? Isn't it a well paid job? 167 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 2: Well, again, it depends on the setting that you're working. 168 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 2: The hospitals play different from nursing homes. Nursing homes pay 169 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: different from clinics. If you're an academia and you're a 170 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 2: professor in an institution, that pays a different salary as well. 171 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: But there's a shortage of nurses because as people get older, right, so, 172 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 2: there are people leaving the profession, and we don't have 173 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 2: enough younger of the younger generation trained and skilled to 174 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 2: essentially take over. It's a high stress job. We work 175 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 2: extremely long hour this high level of burnout and turnover 176 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,599 Speaker 2: and so many things that come with it. So it 177 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 2: is a challenge and it remains a challenge. If we 178 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: don't have enough professors in nursing in academia to train 179 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 2: the students, then you have to put a cap on 180 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: how many nursing students you can accept, right So it's 181 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 2: pretty cyclical. So we want to make sure that we're 182 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 2: doing everything we can, not just as individuals, but as 183 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 2: a community to be able to sustain that healthcare workforce. Pipeline. 184 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: Now, Nurse McKenzie, Now you said, hi, burnout rate, you 185 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: say physically challenge, you said it stress. I'm trying to 186 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: figure out how brought you to hype up nurses and that. Yeah, 187 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: you got to start hyping up the nurse the nurse 188 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: program over here, go ahead, because of the fact that 189 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: you know, I'm playing with you as well as gaining information. 190 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: Because of the fact that I have a sister law 191 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: I've seen this, I've seen her. You know a lot 192 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: of people come into hospitals who are overweight. You have 193 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: to deal with that. You know a lot of people 194 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: are physically challenging when they're coming. You got to deal 195 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: with that as a nurse, moving bodies that you aren't 196 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: capable of moving, that you have to move with certain times, 197 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: and people who are bedridden, and then building dealing with 198 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: honorary patients and things like that. What attracted you to 199 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: the nursing business, Well, I. 200 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 2: Was volunteld to try nursing. I was a pre farm 201 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 2: major previously, so I actually wanted to become a pharmacologist. 202 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 2: I wanted to make the drugs, and you know, when 203 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 2: that didn't work out, those early morning classes and those 204 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 2: organic chemistry. My mom said, don't feel bad. 205 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: Don't feel bad. Physics stopped me from being an engineer. 206 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: So to understand, we have a club. Something turned us 207 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 1: a way, and guess what, we're still successful, all right, 208 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: don't feel bad, speak to worth. 209 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 2: No, no, no, I definitely don't feel bad because it 210 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 2: was shows before me. So I was in and I've 211 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: tried it, and I think for me, the most rewarding 212 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 2: part of nursing has always been the privilege for showing 213 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 2: up for people in their most vulnerable moment. Right It's 214 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 2: like on the scared when they're hurting, when they're unsure 215 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 2: of what's going on, and being able to be that 216 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 2: translator for what does the doctor just say? Did he 217 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 2: just did he just tell me I have so and so? 218 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 2: That type of thing, and just being the steady voice 219 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: of hope, and being there to advocate for the patients, 220 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: you know, even when they didn't even know that they 221 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 2: needed an advocate. Right. So it's all about humanity and 222 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 2: the human connection. So even though it's a high stress job, 223 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 2: it's extremely rewarded. I knew where you would go with that, 224 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: but it's extremely rewarding and I can't see myself doing 225 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: anything else. So I'm here to help champion and continue 226 00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 2: to enhance our career, our profession. My ENIMI is necessary. 227 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you this. I spent thirty days in 228 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,599 Speaker 1: the hospital in Los Angeles, nineteen ninety thirty days. So 229 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,199 Speaker 1: when I talk about the hospital experience, you know, you 230 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: spend telling everybody. When you spend thirty days in the hospital, 231 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: you start making up your own hospital food, you know, 232 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: because they bring it and you start mixing up. So 233 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: now can you give me the apple sauce with the 234 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: strawberry ice? You can you mix that up? 235 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 2: Now? 236 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: When you spend thirty days. 237 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 2: In the house, you know, telling the truth, you really can. 238 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: You start to concoct somethings right. 239 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: And I would tell you from a nurse perspective, you know, people, 240 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: people need to understand there's a journey in the process 241 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: of fear when you walk in, when you go in 242 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,839 Speaker 1: the hospital, there's the fear is attached to that because 243 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: nobody wants to be in the hospital. No I don't know, 244 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: nobody saying, you know, I'm volunteered to go in the hospital. 245 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: Nobody does that. And so the person that I always 246 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: felt relaxed, always felt championed me. Always felt were more 247 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: of a straight shooter in their way. They could straight shoot. 248 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: What's the nurse? Now? The doctor come through that door? 249 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: I said, okay, what you about to say? Brother? Come 250 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: on now? 251 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 2: What you what? 252 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: What news you about to tell me? 253 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 2: Now? 254 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: Okay? Because I stayed in Osford thirty days, so you 255 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: stay in Ostford thirty days. You know that doctor came 256 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: through that door with a lot of stuff I didn't 257 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: want to hear. Oh, we wanted to keep you a 258 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: couple of but the nurse. The nurse kept me up 259 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: and kept me motivated, kept the right medicine, looked at 260 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: my charge, making sure that I was there. So I'm 261 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: a big advocate of it. And when I had an 262 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: opportunity to bring because you're the I've had nurses on 263 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: my should today, but none like you. Because you're an 264 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: advocate and you put together an organization that the health 265 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: for Healthcare Professionals. Why was it important to put together 266 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: the HHCP. 267 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 2: Well, simply put, I thought that no one else was 268 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 2: coming to save us. So during COVID and knowing that 269 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 2: I've lived the burnout, I've walked in their shoes, I've 270 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: had the mental strain, and I've watched I was literally 271 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: watching the healthcare system crumble in real time. But I 272 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 2: also saw it as an opportunity to be able to 273 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 2: create some type of intentional program to care for the 274 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: healthcare workforce. 275 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: Right. 276 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: So it's a huge feat. But when I started, I 277 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: simply wanted to just mobilize people and the community to 278 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 2: help the healthcare workforce because working in the healthcare workforce 279 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 2: for probably almost two decades at that point, we didn't 280 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 2: get anything like the benefits, right. It just depends on 281 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 2: again the setting that you work in and so on. 282 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 2: But we didn't really qualify. We didn't qualify for a 283 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: lot of stuff. So there are about forty percent of 284 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: healthcare professionals that twenty four percent of healthcare professionals that 285 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: live in poverty and they struggle from day to day 286 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 2: making ends meet. You also have registered nurses that things 287 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: happen right life life, You know how the kids say 288 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: life be lifing and they struggle with different things. So 289 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 2: I just had the opportunity to be able to create 290 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 2: the nonprofit to not just react to crisis, but design 291 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 2: a revenue generating program that could solve a more systemic problem. 292 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: So these aren't just charity cases. It's a business imperative 293 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 2: when you look at things like workforce shortage, mental health 294 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: and equity. 295 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 3: Please don't go anywhere. We'll be right back with more 296 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 3: money Making Conversations Masterclass.

She's founded a health for Healthcare Professional 302 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: organization because she recognizes the immense pressures faced by nurses, doctors, 303 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: and frontline staff HHCP, which offers tailor resources, financial literacy programs, 304 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: and career guidance to help healthcare professional regain control of 305 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: their lives. Right there, when you say regain control of 306 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: their lives, helped me understand the overall culture that that 307 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: allows you to make a statement like that in that profession. 308 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: Because you mentioned the nurses, doctors and frontline staffs, sometimes 309 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: the stress and the burnout so high that they lose 310 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: control of their lives. Please explain tomorrow. This is what 311 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 1: you're talking. 312 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 2: About, all right, So there are a number of different 313 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 2: things we do to be able to provide comprehensives support 314 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 2: to healthcare professionals.

So a primary source of funding, either 349 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 2: grants or individual donations. So we've been around for April 350 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 2: first is actually our fifteen year as impact in this 351 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 2: state that we're placed to continue to grow up programs. 352 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 2: But federal to answer your question, federal grants and individual donations. 353 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 1: So you have any programs like any award show or 354 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: any receptions or any galos that you throw annually that 355 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: you can tell our audience about.

So are some dance 360 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: music or somebody singing? They might show up. So let's 361 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: talk about that because you know from Jamaica. And now 362 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: I know you got it going on. Now see.

Let everybody know and we want to take 367 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: it all the way. We gotta know that because we 368 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: try to raise some money for you. We try to 369 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: get people to understand that you know, their nurses out 370 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: there walking through that door and pain. Sometimes sometimes they 371 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: might need to get in bad with you and you 372 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: get out the bed, and that a lot of people 373 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: don't know that. But the more importantly you have events 374 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: that are raising Monday their events out there, we hear that. 375 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 1: You know, the current administration is cutting back on all 376 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: kind of challenges, so you the grant you might have 377 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: in twenty four might not be available in twenty five 378 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: or twenty six. 379 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,120 Speaker 2: So that is a very true statement. 380 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: So how can we help? 381 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 2: All right? So one of the first things that needs 382 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 2: you to do is donate and tell your friends to 383 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 2: donate and tell your neighbors to donate. We have to 384 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: piggyback on what you were saying. A night of grind 385 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 2: and gratitude. It's our Charity Awards. It's a healthcare getting 386 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 2: law that hosts annually and this year's theme is building 387 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 2: the Pipeline for healthcare Future. 388 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: I love it. 389 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 2: So it's our most important night of the year because 390 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 2: it's real purpose needs power, and we're calling on businesses, 391 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 2: health care, tech, education, community leaders to invest in what 392 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: really matters because every dollar that we raise fuels our 393 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 2: education programs, like our Youth Med program for youth ages 394 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 2: thirteen to twenty that want to join the healthcare workforce. 395 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: We have a Physician Pathway, Nursing and Allied health and 396 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 2: we even have a health tech academy that's set to 397 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 2: launch this year as well. And yeah, so donate, donate, donate, 398 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 2: And it's just a strategic investment in the future of healthcare. 399 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: But I like the fact that you are out there 400 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 1: seeking young people and educating them and then engaging them 401 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: in the process of saying this is a very viable 402 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: option for you to look at and move forward on. 403 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: And because of the fact that when you have these 404 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: events like that, they're important for us all to participate 405 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: because that nurse that might come to this event might 406 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 1: be the nurse that saves your life or be a 407 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: part of your life saving process ten years from now, 408 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: twenty years and now thirty years and that or it 409 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: might be in a nursing home forty years from now 410 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: which you are going through a life crisis. So it's 411 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 1: really important. I've always looked at life, you know, as 412 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: you go old, that's a gift that you want to 413 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: have in your life, to grow older. I never run 414 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 1: from people tell me. I never hide my age because 415 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: I figured, in order for me to do something in life, 416 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: nurse begins, I gotta get older. So for me to 417 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: sit up in trying to be frozen at twenty nine 418 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: or frozen at thirty nine. How am I gonna look 419 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: at somebody? Guys going look at it. There's a whole 420 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 1: lot of experience over here. But I'm only thirty nine, 421 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: but you look older, mister McDonald's eah, keep that to yourself. 422 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. Just one more thing though, that youth med program, 423 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 2: it's about youth opportunity for unpower training in healthcare, medicine, 424 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 2: education and development. So we designed it as a literal 425 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 2: answer to that pipeline building. So when we designed it, 426 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 2: we wanted to remove the barriers, not just by inspiring 427 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 2: the students to walk them through the industry. We provide 428 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 2: exposure in one on one experience with neurosurgeons and different 429 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 2: types of healthcare professionals, and provide transportation and workshops and 430 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 2: TPR certifications and just a bunch of different things. Because 431 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 2: our team is into disciplinary so healthcare future is broad. 432 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 2: So this program is one hundred percent tuition free and 433 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 2: we like to keep it that way. So we're designing 434 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 2: it to be a year round program that we can 435 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,959 Speaker 2: scale anywhere in the country. Applications are even open right now, 436 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 2: so you could just go to our website Www.
