Integrity: Conversation with David Hall

Welcome to another episode of Wild and Precious Conversations. This week, I speak with David Hall, soon-to-be Registered Nurse specializing in Geriatrics. This week I had a chance to speak with my cousin, David Hall. Deciding to make a career chaing in midlife is one thing, becoming a registered nurse specializing in geriatrics is another. First, fingers crossed as I upped my sound editing game this week. Feedback welcome. I start the conversation (I feel) rather abruptly, throwing us into a contemplation of the commodification of self care. As a future nurse, David introduces us to really what nursing is in this modern era and we move quickly into talking about nursing ethics… Which leads us to thinking about what happes when you don’t have a code of ethics…which leads us to…what if you do have a code of ethics but you are a serial killer? Emma Goldman — Anarchist. Onward. Excited to begin more conversations again. Next week, we introduce the first in a series of what I am calling “shadow” conversations with Deirdre McClaughlin. In this series, we tackle themes that no one wants to hear about in a way that you will want to listen to... I have, at this point, had this conversation…you won’t want to miss this one.
