This week Tina is joined by Nurse Allie, a nurse influencer from Instagram and YouTube. Together, they bring you a compilation of disturbing stories involving corrections nurses. As nurses, we make commitments to ensure that our patients receive quality healthcare, regardless of the setting in which the treatment is administered. What happens when a nurse in a correctional facility abandons this principle and doesn’t provide adequate care?


For the good nurse story, they discuss another registered nurse who is currently serving our nation as a United States Congresswoman, Lauren Underwood.
