"The Gallup Honesty and Ethics poll originated back in 1976 and has been conducted every year since 1990. If you’re doing the math that means that–yup–nurses have ranked as #1 almost the entire time. (The only year they were displaced was after 2001, when firefighters claimed the top spot, understandably.)" Celebrating the extraordinary nurses I have had a chance to work with (past and present!) as well as those I have met as a patient, parent and caregiver. #NursesWeek #ThankYouNurses

As we mark Nurses Week, it’s crucial to reflect on the profound roles nurses play in healthcare, especially in addressing the quiet crisis of social isolation and loneliness among our elderly patients. At UpStream, our nurses are at the forefront of this battle, embodying compassion and dedication in every aspect of their care. The hidden dangers of loneliness in seniors are severe—increasing risks of mental and physical health issues, and even affecting longevity. Our UpStream nurses are trained to detect early signs of social isolation, understanding that a simple conversation might reveal significant challenges an elderly patient is facing. From encouraging participation in community activities to facilitating access to essential services, they go beyond routine medical care. They ensure that our seniors are not just healthy but also happy, connected, and respected in their communities. This Nurses Week, let’s applaud our UpStream nurses who do more than provide care—they create a community of hope and health for every senior they meet. 💙 #NursesWeek #UpStreamNurses #SeniorCare #SocialIsolation

Today, we celebrate not just their achievements but their unwavering commitment, resilience, and compassion that inspire us every day. The journey of women in medicine and science has been one of persistent determination and extraordinary talent. From the pioneering work of Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman to receive a medical degree in the United States, to the modern-day heroes on the front lines of healthcare and research, women have played a critical role in advancing our understanding of health and disease. Their contributions have been invaluable, saving countless lives and improving the wellbeing of communities around the globe.

On this International Women's Day, we want to extend our deepest gratitude and appreciation to these remarkable women. Your strength, intelligence, and empathy make a difference every day. We also recognize the challenges that women continue to face in the workplace and society. Gender inequality, bias, and underrepresentation in leadership positions are issues that demand our attention and action. UpStream is committed to fostering an inclusive environment where women's careers can thrive, and their achievements are celebrated. We believe in empowering every woman to reach her full potential, within our organization and in the wider medical community. Let's take this opportunity to reflect on the progress made and the journey ahead. We encourage everyone to support and uplift the women in their lives, not just today but every day. Whether it's through mentorship, advocacy, or simply listening to and valuing women's voices, we can all contribute to a more equitable and just world. To the women of UpStream and those across the medical field: thank you for your extraordinary contributions. Your hard work, dedication, and compassion do not go unnoticed.
