An encore presentation of Casey Hobbs RN Host of Nurse Talk interviewing KAY MCVAY.
KAY IS A RETIRED RN WHO SHARES HER STORY ABOUT A NOT SO BLISSFUL RETIREMENT. KAY WAS THE TYPE OF NURSE WHO ONCE INSISTED ON RIDING ALONG IN THE AMBULANCE WITH A PATIENT WITH A HEART CONDITION TO MAKE SURE HE GOT THE CARE HE NEEDED. "I’M GOING TO MAKE SURE THIS PATIENT GETS TO THE HOSPITAL AND THEY TREAT HIM--NOT TURN HIM AWAY." KAY RETIRED IN 1995 JUST 7 SHORT YEARS BEFORE HER HOSPITAL ESTABLISHED RETIREMENT BENEFITS FOR NURSES. She served as a past president for California Nurses Association and continues to work with the organization as President Emeritus.
Casey also chats with Francine Russo who has written a great new book called "They're Your Parents Too." She is a widely recognized journalist known for her alertness to developing trends, especially in her own boomer generation. For nearly a decade Russo covered the boomer beat for TIME Magazine. She brings a rich personal history to her writing as a daughter, sister, wife, widow, mother of two, and stepmother of three. She has a PH.D in English and lives in Manhattan. Casey's Guest Co-Host this week is Dan Grady. Dan is a hospice nurse, musician and all around funny man... (Originally aired February 7, 2010)
