    Feb 16 2026
    "It is physiologically contraindicated for nurses to remain in practice" Nurses Uncorked welcomes back Dr. Lorre Laws PhD, RN to the podcast. In this episode, Nurse Erica shares her personal journey as the primary caregiver for her mother with Alzheimer's Disease. This conversation delves into the impact of unintegrated trauma on nurses and the necessity for self-compassion to aid in recovery. The discussion highlights the silent epidemic of nurse-specific trauma and how it affects nurses' mental and physical health. The statistics reveal high rates of PTSD, depression, substance abuse, and suicide among nurses. The conversation emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of the nervous system and the importance of addressing personal and professional struggles faced by healthcare workers. The discussion also touches on trauma education lacking in nursing programs and asks the question - are nurses being traumatized to monetize? Interested in Sponsoring the Show?

  • EP 125: Tracking the Millions Spent to Keep Nurses Voiceless with Labor Lab!

    EP 125: Tracking the Millions Spent to Keep Nurses Voiceless with Labor Lab!
    Feb 5 2026
    In this eye-opening episode, Nurse Erica sits down with Bob Funk, creator of LaborLab, the only nonprofit watchdog organization tracking corporate spending on union-busting. Bob pulls back the curtain on the multi-million dollar industry dedicated to keeping healthcare workers from organizing, revealing how hospitals and healthcare systems spend millions of dollars on union-busting consultants. They explore LaborLab's union-buster tracker and discuss the common tactics employers use to discourage nurses from organizing, from captive audience meetings to intimidation and retaliation. Bob explains the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 and how the LM-20 forms are supposed to work—along with the troubling reality that many employers and union-busters simply don't comply with legally required financial reporting. The conversation dives into the "persuader loophole" that allows consultants to hide their anti-union activities and discuss why the PRO Act matters for nursing. They don't shy away from the controversial topic of scab nurses and the damage strike-breaking causes to both patient care and the profession. Whether you're curious about organizing, already involved in union efforts, or just want to understand the forces working against nurses' collective power, this episode is essential listening!
