In the coming months, Care Anywhere will also feature working nurses and other healthcare professionals describing their experiences and the challenges they face in their career mobility journeys. Subjects will include their pathways to education and credentialing, their career advancement decisions, and what they are doing today to lead care model evolution within their health systems.
"Understanding and addressing global health workforce challenges is increasingly important to advancing the health workers and health systems worldwide. We see this podcast series catalyzing global opportunities with people and organizations interested in improving population health, health equity, and health access as we explore the workforce in the context of care model evolution," said Preziosi.

"I'm looking forward to great conversations with nurses, educators, regulators, and others who are thoughtfully focused on solving workforce development challenges in healthcare," said Sims. "We're at a powerful intersection where global shortages are critical and there are big problems to solve, but there has also never been a more exciting time to be a nurse or healthcare worker. New technologies, shifting practice roles, and the opportunity to lead care evolution across global health systems-we're going to dive into all of those industry drivers."
