Nurses rank highest among various factors in the U.S. health system in the latest Gallup poll — earning a grade of “excellent” or “good” by American adults surveyed in November 2023. Further substantiation for nurses’ topping this poll of excellent care is that Gallup found historic low confidence in the U.S. health system among Americans earlier this year in a July study.

On Friday, CNN host Kasie Hunt interviewed antivax presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Although she did better than most journalists confronting him for his past antivax statements in that she played a clip of one of his antivax statements, she clearly hadn't anticipated his response, which should have been very predictable given that he's been using it for at least 15 years.

I am not an artificial intelligence skeptic or pessimist. I am confident that AI will improve healthcare, and I look forward to seeing how. I’ve been following the general conversations and have been particularly interested in AI’s potential to improve diagnostic performance. Two good reads are here and here. I do not think that we can yet really imagine how we will incorporate AI into our practice in five or ten years.

Nursing residency programs have both advantages and disadvantages. While many healthcare leaders believe that nurse residency programs are a necessity , others are wary of the cost and long-term commitment they require.

Still, these Socratic axioms’ universality applies to anyone who breathes air. Amid our busy and complicated lives, knowing ourselves can seem like the last thing we want to add to our already crowded to-do lists.
