Do a quick Google search of the words "Nurse Burnout". In about 0.31 seconds, you will have roughly 112 million results. Suffice it to say there is not shortage of information (and purported solutions) to "nurse burnout". So why are we still talking having to talk about it today?

Welcome to Episode 45, where we seek to turn the whole conversation on wellbeing and burnout on its head. The core issue we are facing in today's healthcare is moral distress / moral injury. In this episode, we define these terms, discuss real-life examples, and more importantly, what to do about it. Moral distress isn't something that will be fixed with deep breathing exercises or yoga in the middle of your shift. It will require systematic changes to our healthcare system. Period.
