    EP 71: The Shocking Truth Behind Organ Donation!

    Trigger Warning: Episode Involves Organ Donation Complications Information presented is alleged and under ongoing investigation.   In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Erica and Nurse Jessica discuss the controversial case of Anthony "T.J." Hoover, who was declared brain dead but later showed signs of consciousness during the organ donation process. The conversation delves into the family's harrowing experience, the whistleblower accounts from medical professionals involved, and the urgent need for reform in organ donation practices. The whistleblowers share personal experiences and insights into the pressures faced by organ procurement organizations (OPOs) to meet metrics, the lack of oversight, and the potential biases in donor evaluations.

    EP 67: The Power Of Nursing Unions: How They're Changing The Game

    In this episode guest Julia Godby-Murray returns to share her experience and involvement with nursing union organizing. The conversation explores the importance of unions in advocating for nurses' rights and improving working conditions. It emphasizes the need for nurses to actively support legislation and join unions to bring about change. The conversation also highlights success stories of nurses standing up for their rights and the significance of having a seat at the table in decision-making processes. Fear of retaliation from management should not deter nurses from joining unions. In the final part of the conversation, the nurses discuss the importance of attending union meetings, negotiating contracts, and standing up for oneself in the workplace.

    EP 65: Kapi'olani Medical Center, Hawaii, Nursing Strike

    Bonus Episode!! On September 13th, 2024, 600 nurses exerted their legally protected right participating in an unfair labor practice strike at Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children. The nurses are represented by the Hawaii Nurses Association/OPEIU Local 50 union. This is their second strike this year. The first one was a seven day strike in January. The 9/13/2024 strike was a planned one-day only strike. Despite the short duration, the hospital went to the media (allegedly) to announce their plans to lockout the nurses indefinitely when they attempt to return to work on September 14, 2024. In addition to being an illegal lockout, it has the potential for setting a very dangerous precedent for nurses and unions everywhere. Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica traveled to Honolulu, Hawaii to support the Kapi'olani nurses. This podcast was recorded on the actual strike line. The hosts share their experiences and what they witnessed. Four of the striking nurses are interviewed and share their individual experiences. Erica and Jessica would like to thank the Kapi'olani nurses and the Hawaii Nurses Association/OPEIU Local 50 for welcoming them.  Interested in Sponsoring the Show?  Email with the subject NURSES UNCORKED SPONSOR to nursesuncorked@nursesuncorked.com    Help Us Keep This Podcast going and become an official Patron of Nurses Uncorked!

The conversation covers the history of the Nurses Honor Guard, the ceremony they perform at funerals, and the emotional impact it has on families and nurses.
