Our podcast discusses expectations of nursing at advanced level, plus nursing staff recognised in the King’s birthday honours list for their contribution to healthcare

Advanced practice, nursing staff receiving honours and suicidal ideation among nurses

New principles for advanced practice, and nursing staff recognised in the King’s birthday honours, are among the headlines grabbing nurses’ attention this week.

In our latest podcast episode, RCNi content editor Alistair Mason and senior journalist Shruti Sheth Trivedi bring you fresh insights on issues affecting nursing staff. These also include harrowing accounts of nurses experiencing suicidal ideation due to intense workplace pressures, and an RCN Foundation survey that explores the domestic abuse experiences and support needs of nursing and midwifery staff in the UK.

They also highlight tributes paid to an Indian nurse who was killed in the recent Air India plane crash.

RCNi subscriber content discussed includes six ways employers can help reduce the risk of burnout in nursing staff.
