We follow the stories of two public health nurses working directly with clients who are unhoused, underhoused, or living on the streets. Our final guest discusses harm reduction at a population level. All three of these nurses provide insight into an average workday, advice on the kinds of skills that are needed to do their work, and suggestions for nursing students planning out their next steps.

This episode will introduce listeners to two different areas of public health nursing practice: leading a population health promotion campaign, and working in a school health role. We’ll learn about the development of a large-scale campaign to support effective parenting; an example of how public health nursing can influence the entire population. Listeners will also hear how the school public health nurse works with students, teachers, principals, and parents to support the physical and emotional health of children and youth. Each nurse will offer a peek into a typical work day. While their roles are different, similar skills in collaboration, advocacy and innovation are foundational to their work.
