Sometimes it’s good to spend your free time listening to someone who understands what it’s like to do what you do.
Not many people can relate to the long hours, demanding schedules, emotional days that come with being a nurse.
For nurses there are plenty of podcasts that don’t just talk about the trade but reveal some much needed humor and interesting storylines along the way. Here are 5 podcasts — available on Apple Podcast, Spotify and Google Podcast — that should be on every nurse’s list:
Crash Cart Cocktails
The Crash Cart Cocktails podcast was created by critical care RNs Sarah and Angela. Their podcast focuses on them navigating the world inside and outside the hospital. Nothing is off limits from family, personal experience, nursing traumas and more.
The Cellfie Show
This podcast gives a new meaning to being “off the clock.” Tori Meskin and Sam Manassero bring you the unfiltered side of the medical world. They talk about healthcare, self-care, and all the down and dirty in between.
Nursing Uncensored
Adrianne M. Behning, BSN, RV, created Nursing Uncensored with one vision: to educate in an informal setting, using humor and storytelling as meaningful teaching tools. This podcast is an authentic, raw and honest look at the day.
Ask Nurse Alice
Nurse Alice isn’t just a podcast host; she’s become a household name that nurses turn to for advice. Alice Benjamin, MSN, APRN, ACNS-BC, FNP-C, is a mom, a nurse and an author known as “America’s favorite nurse.” She’s been seen on NBC, CNN, GMA, The Doctors, and more, but it’s on her podcast that she can really be herself.
