Good Nursing School Bad Florida Nurse

They close the show with an uplifting story that will help restore your faith in nursing schools.

They open the show talking about Covid-19 and close the show discussing a good Neuroscientist who was able to restore some function to a pig's brain after death.

Good Flight Passenger Doctor Bad Primary Care Doctor

This week Tina is joined by Kevin with Art of Emergency Nursing podcast. They discuss the perplexing and tragic story of Dr. Vince Gilmer from North Carolina. Was Dr. Gilmer's actions caused by a head injury, mental illness, or was he just a very intelligent and manipulative person who tried to get away with murder? They also discuss an incredibly sad story of a woman who died after waiting in an ER with chest pain. However, are news outlets just spinning the story that way to make it seems more shocking? They close the story with a heroic act by a doctor while on an airplane, but this is not your typical "CPR for a heart attack" kind of rescue. You won't believe what this doctor did to save a man's life!

Good Child of Rage Bad Child Therapist

**Trigger Warning**This week's episode is very special. Tina is joined by Jehr, a student nurse who has had to overcome a lot in order to get where she is. Tina also opens up for the first time about her traumatic childhood. This portion of the show has been edited down in the interest of time. However, the full conversation is available on our website.

For the bad nurse story, they discuss the unbelievably tragic story of Beth Thomas. Beth was six years old when HBO did a documentary about the therapy she had to go through due to abuse she suffered the first few years of her life. Beth would grow up to become a nurse, however, there are several medical professionals in this horrific story who could be considered the "bad" one.
