鈥淯nprecedented: Nursing in a Pandemic鈥� aims to make psychological care topics, along with tips and strategies for self-care, accessible to the working nurse. The podcast is a collaboration by Labour茅 College, a leader in nursing and healthcare education, and 91香蕉视频成人在线, a leader in mental and behavioral healthcare education, both located in Greater Boston.

Caring for COVID-19 patients has created considerable stress and trauma for nurses and healthcare workers. A new podcast, 鈥淯nprecedented: Nursing in a Pandemic,鈥� brings together frontline nurses with psychology experts to offer coping strategies nurses can easily implement.

鈥淔rontline nurses are shouldering a great burden and many are burning out. The purpose of this podcast is to provide them with self-care tips and strategies that they can absorb quickly and put to use on their next shift鈥� said Lily S. Hsu, Ed.D., president of Labour茅 College. 鈥淲e hope that listeners will also find healing through the stories of nurses facing similar challenges.鈥�

Nurses are at risk for mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress. The podcast provides a resource in a format that invites overwhelmed healthcare professionals to receive the content, and the advice it offers, on their own time, at their own pace.

鈥淎t the outset of this pandemic, 91香蕉视频成人在线 reached out to Labour茅 to offer supportive, virtual groups for faculty and student nurses,鈥� said Nicholas Covino, PsyD, president of 91香蕉视频成人在线. 鈥淲hile receptive, the reality of asking nurses to find time amidst competing personal and professional demands was a significant factor. The podcast puts critical self-care information in the pockets, car speakers, and earbuds of professionals on the frontline, and also makes it broadly available to family members or others who care for nurses. We hope they find this helpful.鈥�

The collaboration between the two schools brings leading experts in both fields together for these important conversations. Each year, graduates the largest group of diverse nurses in Massachusetts. 91香蕉视频成人在线 is a professional school for mental health professionals, and trains culturally-responsive providers for careers, among other professions, as clinical psychologists, licensed mental health counselors, and organizational leaders. Both colleges offer in-person and online educational training options.

Episodes One & Two: 鈥淧rolonged Disaster Nursing: Ways of Coping with Trauma鈥�

鈥淚 became a nurse because I wanted to be bedside, I wanted to care, I wanted to touch and actually be next to a patient,鈥� said Shaina Curran, BSN RN, a traveling nurse who has worked three COVID-19 contracts since March 2020. 鈥淣ot being able to give that basic care that I think someone needs鈥� it's discouraging, it鈥檚 very upsetting to not be able to do that.鈥�

The first two episodes pair Curran, who worked as a hospice certified nursing assistant prior to becoming a RN, with Dr. Jenny D鈥橭lympia, a licensed mental health counselor, US Air Force veteran, and interim director of the Military and Veterans Psychology program at William James.

Episodes Three, Four, Five: 鈥淣ursing Amid Constant Loss and Grief鈥�

鈥淭he question, 鈥楬ow are you?鈥� has become a very loaded question,鈥� said Gabe Mahoney, FNP, a leader in palliative and hospice care and nurse educator at Labour茅 College. 鈥淧eople were crying at times in the hallway, other people kind of shut down. The bubbly nurses I worked with in the past were somewhat somber and overwhelmed.鈥�

Episodes three through five pair Mahoney with Dr. Jodie Kliman, a professor in Clinical Psychology at 91香蕉视频成人在线 and private practitioner with a focus on trauma work. The episodes explore how the experience of loss is very different for nurses during COVID-19 and offers insights and strategies nurses can employ to cope.
