Nurses risk losing their jobs trying to effect change for themselves and their co-workers.&nbsp;Nurse Erica is one such Registered Nurse who grew tired of the stressful situations that nurses were being placed under and the number of extra shifts that they were having to take on. She took to TikTok as a way to promote nursing advocacy and soon found her content resonating with nurses worldwide.&nbsp;She has turned championing the cause of underappreciated and under-respected nurses into a career as she now helps hospitals unionize, nurses improve their resumés and prepare for interviews as part of her consultation offerings.&nbsp;Rather than being silenced, Nurse Erica and her savvy use of social media is ensuring that the grievances of nurses out there are being heard loud and clear. We say it's about damn time! Please join us!&nbsp;"Retaliation is very alive and well in the nursing profession.
