The Nurse Keith Show Keith Carlson, RN, BSN, NC-BC

On episode 441 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews author and consultant Peter Yesawich, PhD regarding his new book, Hospitable Healthcare: Just What the Patient Ordered! In the book, Yesawich and his co-author Dr. Stowe Shoemaker, PhD make the argument that healthcare providers and facilities have the power to implement successful strategies championed by the hospitality industry in order to exponentially improve the patient experience. In the authors' view, healthcare's lack of attention to the basics of hospitality and customer service do significant damage to the public's view of the healthcare system and the facilities and providers that it employs. The concepts of hospitality have the potential to vastly improve healthcare delivery.
Peter C. Yesawich is Chairman of Hospitable Healthcare Partners, LLC, and Vice Chairman, Emeritus of MMGY Global. Hospitable Healthcare Partners is a consultancy serving hospitality and healthcare industry clients. MMGY Global is America’s leading marketing communications agency serving travel, leisure, and entertainment industry clients. Yesawich has led the development of marketing programs for some of the travel industry’s most popular destinations and admired brands.
From 2010 to 2020, Yesawich served as Chief Growth Officer (CGO) for Cancer Treatment Centers of America® (CTCA), a national network of specialty hospitals and outpatient clinics treating adults diagnosed with complex or advanced-stage cancer. CTCA became the most recognized national cancer care provider in the U.S. and the third most positively perceived hospital system in the country during his tenure as CGO.
Yesawich has been a frequent commentator on marketing trends in such publications as The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, USA TODAY, Time, Newsweek, on the CNN, CNBC, MSNBC, and BBC World television networks, and on National Public Radio.

On episode 438 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith welcomes back Dr. Iman Abuzeid, the CEO and founder of Incredible Health. During this in-depth conversation, Keith and Iman discuss Incredible Health's fourth annual report on the state of the nursing profession. With survey responses and data collected from over 3,000 nurses, the report reveals telling insights about what nurses are thinking and where the profession is heading. Some highlights from the study include:

80% of nurses plan to stay in field until retirement, up from 55% last year.

Mental wellness is no longer in decline, with nurses reporting a one-point increase from 25% in 2021 to 26% in 2023 of good mental health, following years of pervasive burnout and stress due to the pandemic. 

84% do not think the nursing industry is improving fast enough when it comes to addressing understaffing, burnout, and pay.

54% of those surveyed would continue to recommend a career in nursing.

48% of offers made on the Incredible Health platform included a sign-on bonus, up 14% over last year, pointing to health systems leveraging bonuses to bridge salary gaps. 

60% of nurses believe it is important to use social media as a nurse in today’s healthcare industry, with 77% of respondents saying it’s a source of community and support.


If you want to get a snapshot of the state of nursing in 2023, this conversation will provide much food for thought.

On episode 436 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Kelly Tuttle, FNP, a neurology nurse practitioner and brain injury survivor. Her new book, "After the Crash: How to Keep Your Job, Stay in School, and Live Life After a Brain Injury" is a chronicle of Kelly's story along with advice on how to recover and thrive after a traumatic head injury.
Ms. Tuttle joined the “head injury survivors club” (as she described it) in 2015, the night another car pulled in front of her as she was driving. It wasn’t until three months later that she realized something was seriously wrong. Kelly’s traumatic brain injury (TBI) marked the beginning of a new life and personal journey of self-rediscovery.
A neurology nurse practitioner, Kelly has a front-row seat to observe patients struggling with many of the same things she experienced in her recovery. She strives to share her coping strategies and tools and help them continue to work and study while they heal. Kelly also wants TBI patients to know there is hope. She got better, and they can too.
Kelly is a member of the California Association for Nurse Practitioners, the California Association of Nurses/National Nurse United, and the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International. She earned her master of science in nursing from Gonzaga University and her bachelor of science in nursing from California State University, Fresno.
A longtime martial arts student, Kelly has a second-degree black belt in kenpō karate and a blue belt in Brazilian jujitsu. She is also an obsessed knitter without enough storage space for her yarn and a lover of adult coloring books and pencils.
