<p>Ethical recruitment is often discussed as a workforce strategy, but in this episode of Care Anywhere, it’s explored as something much more meaningful: a commitment to protecting, empowering, and investing in the nurses who make global healthcare possible.</p><p>Host Lea Sims sits down with Health Carousel’s Donita Ross, Associate Chief Nursing Officer and Vice President, and Erik Schuman, Chief Operating Officer, for a special DAISY Honoree Spotlight celebrating Donita’s recognition for her extraordinary leadership and advocacy on behalf of internationally educated nurses.</p><p>Drawing on more than three decades of nursing experience, Donita shares her passion for helping nurses achieve their professional goals while ensuring they are supported throughout every stage of their journey to the United States.

<p>Hospitals and healthcare systems around the world are facing an undeniable reality: safe staffing can no longer be solved simply by adding more people to an overstretched workforce. As global nursing shortages continue to rise, healthcare leaders are being forced to rethink not only how care is staffed, but how care itself is designed and delivered. </p><p>In this special episode of From the Bench, host Lea Sims sits down with Sylvain “Syl” Trepanier, Chief Nursing Officer at Providence and Board Chair of TruMerit, alongside Ching-Min Chen, Vice President of the Taiwan Nurses Association and Distinguished Professor at National Cheng Kung University, to explore a new framework for safe staffing built around innovative models of care. </p><p>Drawing from TruMerit’s latest report, Safe Staffing Through New Models of Care, Syl and Ching-Min explain why the future of healthcare depends on moving beyond traditional staffing ratios and redesigning systems around patient needs, interdisciplinary collaboration, workforce sustainability, and technology-enabled care delivery. </p><p>Lea, Syl, and Ching-Min unpack the report’s three-domain framework, which focuses on healthcare systems and infrastructure, service delivery, and measurable workforce and patient outcomes. The conversation explores how healthcare organizations can better support clinicians practicing at the top of their license, leverage interdisciplinary teams, and create models that are flexible enough to work across hospitals, clinics, communities, and virtual care settings. </p><p>The episode also highlights real-world examples of innovation already happening globally. From telehealth programs supporting maternal care in underserved regions to hybrid virtual nursing models and forensic telehealth services, the discussion demonstrates how technology can expand access to care while supporting both workforce resilience and patient safety. </p><p>At the center of the conversation is the idea that technology should enhance human care, not replace it. Syl and Ching-Min discuss how AI, virtual nursing, remote monitoring, and telehealth are helping healthcare systems extend expertise, reduce clinician burden, and improve continuity of care while preserving the empathy and human connection at the heart of nursing practice. </p><p>Ultimately, the episode challenges healthcare leaders, educators, and policymakers to rethink workforce shortages as a systems design issue, not simply a staffing issue, and to build models of care that are safer, more equitable, and more sustainable for the future. </p><p>Tune in to the full episode of From the Bench at TruMerit.org/podcast or on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other major podcast platforms.</p>

<p>In this episode of Care Anywhere, host <a rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/engenkatiebrown">Lea Sims</a> sits down with Katie Brown, founder and chief education officer at <a rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" href="https://getengen.com/">EnGen</a>, to explore how English language mastery can unlock opportunity for internationally trained healthcare professionals. Together, they discuss why language proficiency is about far more than passing exams—it directly impacts patient care, workplace confidence, career mobility, and successful integration into a new community.</p><p>Katie shares how EnGen’s personalized, occupation-specific approach helps multilingual healthcare workers build the practical communication skills needed both inside and outside the workplace. From preparing for NCLEX and English proficiency exams to navigating patient conversations, workplace collaboration, banking, insurance, and daily life in a new country, EnGen focuses on teaching language in real-world context rather than through traditional one-size-fits-all instruction.</p><p>The conversation highlights the critical role communication plays in healthcare delivery, particularly in high-stress patient care settings where trust, understanding, and clarity are essential. Lea and Katie also discuss how multilingual professionals strengthen healthcare systems by improving access, reducing communication barriers, and helping organizations better serve diverse patient populations.</p><p>Another key focus of the episode is confidence. Katie explains how language barriers and cultural adjustment challenges can leave even highly skilled professionals feeling uncertain, despite years of clinical expertise. Through adaptive learning, personalized support, and practical application, EnGen helps learners gain the confidence needed to thrive professionally and personally.</p><p>The episode also explores the untapped potential of internationally trained healthcare workers already living in English-speaking countries but working below their qualifications due to language barriers or limited support. Katie emphasizes that with targeted language upskilling, these professionals can accelerate into meaningful clinical roles while helping address critical workforce shortages worldwide.</p><p>Listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of how language learning can empower healthcare professionals, strengthen patient care, support family integration, and expand global workforce mobility.</p><p>For more episodes of <a rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" href="https://marketscale.com/shows/care-anywhere-the-global-health-workforce-podcast/">Care Anywhere: The Global Health Workforce Podcast</a>, visit <a rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.trumerit.org/podcast/">TruMerit.org</a> or listen on your favorite podcast platform.</p>
