Episode Synopsis

Welcome to Episode 12! In the last episode, we discussed breaking down stereotypes in nursing. This week, we shift focus to our patients. In this episode, we make the case that words matter when talking about our patients and explore how labeling patients as opposed to behaviors results in adverse outcomes. We also discuss the APA recommendations for words to use and words to avoid and advocate including this in all caregiver's practice. ---------------------------------New website: https://www.purposedrivenpx.com/real-nurses-real-talk-podcastInterest form to tell your story: https://form.jotform.com/230685346709060Be sure to connect with us on Instagram:@realnurses_pcSend questions, topic ideas, and/or comments to [email protected].
