The Nursing Beat and connectRN joined forces to reach expanded audiences, drive nurse-centric thought leadership forward, and create a sense of community and direction for nurses navigating a complicated industry.
Long before the Covid-19 pandemic, nurses experienced high levels of burnout due to issues like low salaries, long hours, and lack of communication with management. Overrun hospitals and skilled nursing facilities and the ongoing nursing shortage have only exacerbated the problems.
connectRN works to address these issues head-on by providing nurses with flexible work hours, pay transparency, and resources dedicated to topics like mental health and reproductive rights.
The Nursing Beat is a growing nurse-led community with a network of over 28k innovators and changemakers. They reach nearly one million nurses through their daily digest and influencer network.
In tandem with connectRN, their goal is to empower clinicians by curating resource-rich content from self-care and mental health to advocacy and professional identity development. Together, the two organizations will deliver co-branded content and expertise from their communities of professionals to provide trusted, inspiring resources and events that connect healthcare professionals.
“Partnering with The Nursing Beat furthers our commitment to deliver the best resources and experiences for nurses and CNAs navigating their careers. Our missions align perfectly, and together we can expand our collective communities and build tools and events where they feel valued and supported,” said connectRN CEO Ted Jeanloz.
“Our partnership with connectRN leverages our mutual networks to accelerate our shared goal of building a vibrant community of clinicians inspired and prepared to take on workforce challenges. We know that nurses are at the heart of healthcare,” noted The Nursing Beat CEO Tamara AL-Yassin.
