Kay McVay Segment | Show 224
Guest: Kay McVay
An encore presentation of Casey’s interview with Kay McVay. Kay is a retired RN who shares her story about a not-so-blissful retirement. KAY RETIRED IN 1995, JUST SEVEN SHORT YEARS BEFORE HER HOSPITAL ESTABLISHED RETIREMENT BENEFITS FOR NURSES. 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.” She served as a past president for California Nurses Association and continues to work with the organization as President Emeritus.
