In this episode 11 of Season Three of the Nursing Strategies for Success Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jeanette Zocco MSN, RNC-OB, C-EFM, C-ONQS, who is leveraging her decades of experience to transform Nursing teams and workplace culture through advocacy and empowerment of other Nurses.  She has recently authored a book with a two-fold intention:

1. To educate perinatal nurses on quality and safety concepts and various quality improvement tools to bring evidence-based care to the bedside and create safer systems of care (which I personally think can be utilized by all specialties).

2. To serve as a study guide for nurses interested in sitting for the Obstetric and Neonatal Quality and Safety Certification exam (developed by the National Certification Corporation). Key concepts discussed include: strategies to advocate for patient safety, human factors and cognitive biases as contributing factors to medical errors and sentinel events, and how teamwork and quality improvement can help. (Again - I think all specialties can benefit from this book despite the desire or lack thereof with obtaining ONQS certification.)
