116: Power of The Podcast: Stronger After Stroke
35 min
Addressing Health Disparities
A new annual report from the Commonwealth Fund describes how Americans face greater barriers to accessing and affording healthcare than their counterparts in peer nations. Now, nurses are addressing these ongoing disparities through a new and growing medium: podcasting.
Taking Nursing Expertise to the Airwaves
In a new series for SEE YOU NOW, we explore how nurses are taking their expertise to the airwaves to share evidence-based care solutions, offering patients and the public vital, practical, and trusted information, while healthcare colleagues are learning new tools to improve education and care delivery. Through podcasting, nurses are bridging the gaps in education, care availability, and professional development, and fostering better health outcomes and stronger communities.
Meet Rosa Hart BSN, RN, SCRN
Stroke nurse navigator and podcast creator and host Rosa Hart, BSN, RN, SCRN, saw how patients and their families struggled to grasp complex post-stroke guidance as they were being discharged. In her Stronger After Stroke podcast, she brings together stroke survivors and healthcare specialists to address common questions, hard-to-discuss topics, and everything in between. Learn how Stronger After Stroke reaches patients, people, and professionals far outside of her local community, and how listeners feel supported and better informed on their recovery journey.
