Inside the halls of American hospitals, millions of people find comfort, healing, and support. But for many doctors and nurses, this couldn’t be further from the truth. This podcast will dive into the shadows of American healthcare to investigate and uncover the abuse, control, and political power plays that leave the very people responsible for our nation’s health, broken and battered. We’re sharing stories of professionals in medicine that have experienced horrendous treatment at the hands of a broken system that does nothing to stop the trauma. As the Association of American Medical Colleges states, “Long before the #MeToo movement, women in medicine have instinctively banded together to counter a culture that too often tolerated harassment.” From systemic trauma to abuse of power to the unspoken rules of cover-ups and corruption, Mandy Irby and HeHe will take you to the darkest corners of healthcare in America so you can have an inside look at bringing humanity back to medicine!

Amy, an OB nurse whose patient was in the ICU, bravely shares her story about an earth shattering event in her nursing career that caused her traumatic stress and panic attacks. She details how this event affected her day-to-day work life, here career, and how she navigated the very limited support she received from her employer to begin to work through her trauma, heal, and courageously how she’s helping other nurses do the same.
There are some amazing and practical nuggets of info in this episode that can benefit every single healthcare professional. Amy is teaching about trauma bandaids and what we can do as professionals when our usual tools for coping fail (and our employers fail to support our mental health.)
