I had the pleasure of speaking with Wendy Garvin Mayo, APRN, ANP-BC on episode 12 of season 3 of the Nursing Strategies for Success Podcast - and THEN I got to hang with her just a week later at the ELEX Conference - which was incredible - and let me tell you - Wendy is doing AMAZING work to promote excellence in healthcare. ✅

The stress management and emotional intelligence strategies she shares are so ESSENTIAL to the way we perform, live our lives and grow as professionals, and EVERYONE can benefit greatly from the sage wisdom and strategies she's discovered over her years of dedication as a healthcare leader. ✨

In this episode 11 of Season Three of the Nursing Strategies for Success Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jeanette Zocco MSN, RNC-OB, C-EFM, C-ONQS, who is leveraging her decades of experience to transform Nursing teams and workplace culture through advocacy and empowerment of other Nurses.  She has recently authored a book with a two-fold intention:

1. To educate perinatal nurses on quality and safety concepts and various quality improvement tools to bring evidence-based care to the bedside and create safer systems of care (which I personally think can be utilized by all specialties).

2. To serve as a study guide for nurses interested in sitting for the Obstetric and Neonatal Quality and Safety Certification exam (developed by the National Certification Corporation). Key concepts discussed include: strategies to advocate for patient safety, human factors and cognitive biases as contributing factors to medical errors and sentinel events, and how teamwork and quality improvement can help. (Again - I think all specialties can benefit from this book despite the desire or lack thereof with obtaining ONQS certification.)

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Kirby P. Williams, MSN, PMHNP-BC who is a nurse practitioner who obtained psychiatric training and education from University of Virginia. She worked as a mental health nurse practitioner since 2012 and enjoys mentoring and supporting future psychiatric nurse practitioners. Since 2014, she has worked in nursing academia in undergraduate and graduate level courses.

As the owner of her private practice Beacon Behavioral Health and Consulting, she provides psychiatric services for adults (state of Virginia and in-person only).

Her passion for mentoring and teaching psychiatric nurse practitioners, was the fuel to starting her professional development services for new grad and novice psychiatric nurse practitioners through her company The PMHNP Source, LLC.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Jessica Gruendler DNP, RN-BC, CPHQ, CNOR - someone who've I had the pleasure of seeing and hearing from at the National Nurses in Business Association Annual Entrepreneurship & Career Alternatives Conference. Dr. Gruendler has trademarked #NotJustANurse as a means to raise awareness of the true power and potential that Nurses have to leverage their skills, talents, passions and empathy to create life-long meaningful impact for our patients, residents, clients, customers and more importantly - our very own colleagues!

Nursing is a team sport, and it takes a village to overcome the many challenges and obstacles that we face, and it's because of dedicated Nursing Professionals like Dr. Gruendler that we are able to overcome and continue to drive healthcare outcomes in positive and meaningful ways!
