Hopkins Nursing Events

Cocktails and Conversations: Facing Inequities in Caregiving and Advocating for Change

Thursday, June 1 | 5 pm | Johns Hopkins School of Nursing

Nurses are uniquely positioned to witness firsthand the ways in which barriers and biases impact patients and their families. From disparities in access to care, to unequal distribution of caregiving responsibilities, to cultural misunderstandings and bias, there are many challenges to achieving equitable care for all. However, we believe that JHU SON Alumni have the ability to drive positive change and make a meaningful difference in the lives of their patients and communities. We hope that you will join us in discussing these issues and sharing strategies on how we can work towards a more equitable and fair healthcare system.    

Attendees will enjoy cocktails and refreshments as they engage in a peer dialogue about inequities faced in caregiving, globally and domestically.

For this dialogue we are defining caregiving according to the CDC. Caregivers provide care to people who need some degree of ongoing assistance with everyday tasks on a regular or daily basis. The recipients of care can live in residential or institutional settings, range from children to older adults, and have chronic illnesses or disabling conditions.

Johns Hopkins Medicine and the Center for Gun Violence Solutions at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health will host a summit on Friday, June 2, to improve the care of patients injured by gun violence and also to identify ways to prevent future violence. The event, called Break the Cycle of Violence Summit, coincides with Wear Orange Weekend — a time to honor survivors of violence, remember lives lost and commit to prevention efforts. 

Johns Hopkins University is hosting a live, virtual briefing prescription drug shortages. The briefing is scheduled to take place on Friday, June 2, from 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. EDT.

The COMPASS journal club is an opportunity for SON students to critically evaluate recent articles from academic literature on subjects related to our mission and vision. The journal club aims to create awareness about current issues, research, opportunities, and initiatives.

Through journal club, we hope to foster opportunities for JHU students and faculty to dialogue about current issues in the field.
