This podcast, created by Johnson & Johnson and the American Nurses Association, focuses on the challenges of juvenile justice and homeless youth in a pandemic
COVID-19 The Nurse Response: Socially Complex (June 05, 2020) Running time 10:08
COVID-19 has disproportionately impacted Black people and people of color in the United States. The pandemic placed a magnifying glass on existing disparities and their underlying causes. And when we look closer into these disparities, we find that youth experiencing homelessness and mental health issues are some of the most adversely affected by the COVID-19 public health measures and Shelter-in-Place orders. In this episode, we hear from psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and researcher, Dawn Bounds, PhD, MPHNP-BC whose research covers juvenile justice and homeless youth. Dawn reflects on the complex challenges these populations face amidst overlapping pandemics.
SEE YOU NOW gives listeners access to meaningful conversations with the nurses at the forefront of health care and innovation; those developing new devices, processes, protocols, and ways to treat for infection prevention, infant health, maternal mortality, palliative care, and so much more. This podcast was created in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson and the American Nurses Association.
