Special Edition Nurse Shift Change Series: Nurses Leading a Movement for Justice, Advocacy & Impact Vol 4

In this powerful and politically charged special edition of Nurses With Voices, host Dr. Lendra welcomes a panel of dynamic nurse leaders—Dr. Michelle Nelson, Dr. Lindsay Harris, and Dr. Roberto Roman—to amplify the Nurse Shift Change Movement. This movement is more than a moment—it's a civil rights-level call to action for nurses and healthcare professionals everywhere to reclaim their voice, advocate for justice, and transform healthcare from the inside out.

Together, they discuss:

• The dangerous legislative threats facing healthcare today

• Why nurses must run for office and vote in local and national elections

• The erosion of DEI, healthcare funding, and human services

• How silos in nursing are harming our power—and how to unite across specialties

• The upcoming Nurse Shift Change Rally and how YOU can get involved

• Real talk on burnout, advocacy, and why silence equals complicity
