“Nurses Deserve Better. So Do Their Patients.”
“We celebrate nurses now... But if we value their sacrifices and want them to be there when we need them, we must prevent a return to the poor pre-pandemic working conditions that led to high nurse burnout and turnover rates even before COVID.” The blunt talk in The New York Times —and some solutions—comes from University of Pennsylvania’s Linda H. Aiken, PhD, RN, FAAN.

Vaccine Uptake and Concerns: Nurses Respond
Even as more Americans become fully vaccinated against COVID-19, some populations in the U.S. have lower rates of vaccination.
