  • Résumé

  • Nashia Williams and Kate O’Connell have been ER nurses (and best friends!) in New York City for over a decade — and since every nursing year in the trenches equals 10 regular years, they’ve got a lot of battle stories to tell. They’ve learned that the ER is often the last stop for those who've been failed by America’s systems. In fact, if the United States itself walked into Kate and Nashia’s ER, they’d rush the country straight into Trauma 1. Racism. Violence. Poverty. Poor sex education. The mental health crisis. What happens when these issues walk in through the ER doors? And what could have been done to prevent it? Nashia and Kate investigate. They speak candidly with a different guest — patients, medical professionals and experts alike — each episode. They talk with people who understand these issues first-hand, and learn how we can each do our part to prevent these systemic problems from claiming more lives. Through it all — their uniquely dark nurses-station humor keeps us all from crying at the dire state of our country’s health. Join us, as our fed-up and faithful nurses do a head to toe examination of the United States. Many of these episodes contain mature content, and listener discretion is advised. This project is presented solely for entertainment purposes, and it not intended as a substitute for the advice of a physician, professional coach, psychotherapist or other qualified professional. All the views expressed are either ours or our guests’, and don’t necessarily reflect the views of Audible and its affiliates.

  • Episode 1: The American Violence Emergency
    May 11 2023
    School nurse Robin Cogan’s father lost his entire family to a shooting in 1949 in Camden, NJ. Decades later, her niece Carly survived the Parkland, Florida school shooting. Kate and Nashia describe the terrible feeling of the red phone going off in the ER — and knowing it may mean that victims of a “mass casualty incident” are approaching their doors. They talk with Robin about the root causes of mass violence in America, and Kate is surprised by Robin’s framework.

  • Episode 2: When the Storm Hits: "Bubblegum, Prayer, and Band-Aids"
    May 11 2023
    We are living in an age of increasingly frequent storms, floods, and fires, but our country treats each one almost like it’s a surprise — cobbling together a response without a robust national infrastructure in place. Kate and Nashia discuss their experiences with disaster relief and storms in the ER — on the homefront and abroad. They chat with Judy Sheridan-Gonzalez, former president of the New York Nurses Association, about how she makes health care accessible in the aftermath of a disaster. By the end of the episode, Kate and Nashia sign up to save the world.

Telling it like it is!

The subject matter is sadly controversial and the solutions are both simple yet seemingly impossible. It amazes me that so many Americans see their right to bear arms as more important than universal access to even the most basic healthcare.

As someone fortunate enough to be from a country where healthcare is available to all (even if the current system is at breaking point), this podcast made me angry and so sad.

However, it also left me with a much more empathy and insight, and best of all - a restored faith in humanity knowing there are still people who care so deeply and to want to be part of the fight for health equality for everyone.

I really hope that there will be more seasons. Thank you for your very informative and passionate conversations.
