  • Reviving Primary Care with Timothy Boyle

    Reviving Primary Care with Timothy Boyle
    Feb 22 2026
    Primary care is quietly collapsing - and most patients don’t even realize it. In this episode, Timothy Boyle pulls back the curtain on the mounting pressure facing small, independent primary care practices across the country. From crushing administrative demands to unsustainable financial models, the very doctors who know their patients best are struggling to survive. But this isn’t just about business. It’s about relationships. Timothy shares why personal connections between providers and patients are the backbone of effective care - and what happens emotionally to clinicians when they’re forced to practice in systems that prevent them from truly helping the people they serve. When small practices disappear, so does continuity, trust, and the human side of medicine. This conversation is a call to reinvest in primary care, not as a line item, but as the foundation of our healthcare system. Because when we support patient-centered practices, we protect both access and humanity in medicine.

  • Ep 63: The Critical Care Revolution with Kali Dayton

    Ep 63: The Critical Care Revolution with Kali Dayton
    Feb 18 2026
    The Awake & Walking ICU: Transforming Critical Care with Kali Dayton Sedation is not neutral. Immobility is not harmless. What we do in the ICU follows patients long after discharge. In this powerful episode of Nurse Rosa’s INsights, I sit down with Kali Dayton, DNP, AGACNP, critical care nurse practitioner, consultant, and founder of the Awake and Walking ICU movement. Kali shares how working in a unit that prioritized mobility and minimal sedation completely changed the way she understood critical care and why she now trains ICU teams nationwide to implement the ABCDEF bundle. We explore what truly happens when patients are deeply sedated. We unpack delirium, long-term cognitive harm, and the cultural norms that intensified during COVID when many ICUs shifted further toward sedation and away from mobility. Kali has walked into ICUs across the country and seen dramatic differences in patient care practices. What she found is clear. Outcomes improve when patients are awake, mobile, and engaged even while critically ill. This is a conversation about challenging outdated practices, elevating nursing advocacy, and embracing interdisciplinary collaboration to transform patient outcomes. If you care about critical care, sedation practices, delirium prevention, or patient-centered ICU transformation, this episode is essential listening.

  • Ep 61: Recognizing Nursing as STEM with Rebecca Love

    Ep 61: Recognizing Nursing as STEM with Rebecca Love
    Feb 11 2026
    Nurses use pharmacology, operate complex medical technology, and apply statistical modeling daily - yet they're locked out of $1.2 billion in federal STEM funding. Rebecca Love is fighting to change that. WHAT'S AT STAKE: A national coalition of 100+ nursing organizations just petitioned the Department of Homeland Security to recognize nursing as a STEM profession. This change could unlock: WHY THIS MATTERS BEYOND NURSING: If you're building health tech, investing in healthcare, or care about AI in medicine, this affects you. Nurses are the frontline innovators using your technology, but they're systematically excluded from the funding and recognition that drives STEM careers forward. THE GENDER BIAS NOBODY'S TALKING ABOUT: Rebecca doesn't sugarcoat it: nursing is 90% female, and she believes that's exactly why it's been overlooked. While male-dominated fields get priority STEM status, nurses who use pharmacology, operate advanced medical devices, and conduct statistical research are told they're not "technical enough." INSIDE THIS CONVERSATION: 🔬 The DHS Petition Explained 💰 The $1.2 Billion Lockout 🤖 AI & Health Tech's Nursing Problem 📊 Business Skills Nurses Need NOW 🏥 Healthcare System Transformation ⚖️ The Gender Equity Angle GUEST BIO: Rebecca Love, RN,MSN,FIEL, is co-chair of the Nursing is STEM Coalition (with Marion Leary from UPenn), First Nurse Featured on Ted.com, on Forbes Business Council, President Emeritus of SONSIEL, Chief Clinical Officer at Quadrivia AI, visiting professor at Florida State University, and founder of the Commission for Nurse Reimbursement.

    Too many meds. Too little guidance. Too much risk.A nurse and a pharmacist break down medication safety for kids and families.

Andy also shares insight into government efforts to improve access, the need for better medical record integration for first responders, and why telehealth must be treated as standard care—not a backup plan.
