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!

Today we’re joined by special guest, Nurse Allie, a hospice nurse who’s passionate about what hospice nursing is really like. She believes that new grad nurse residency programs should be commonplace and readily available to nurses all over the country! She also has some great tips for anyone curious about the hospice field.
On this episode of Pulse Check Podcast, we get to ask Allie:
- How did she get started with hospice nursing?
- What do you recommend is the first step for someone who wants experience as a hospice nurse?
- Where do you pee when you’re doing home visits?
- What are some things that make your job difficult or easier outside of the hospital?
- Is hospice nursing just about morphine drips and hand massages?
- And so much more!
Thank you, Nurse Allie, for your candid conversation and passion for end of life care. We’ve loved getting a peek into why you’re so passionate about your job and your patients. If you have a story or want to share about your corner of healthcare, drop us a line here! We love to help bring humanity back to healthcare.
