The Upswing celebrates National Nurses Month

It’s National Nurses Month, and this edition of Marquette on the Move on The Upswing brings together leaders helping shape the future of healthcare and nursing education. WTMJ’s Jeff Sherman is joined by Marquette University President Kimo Ah Yun, Children’s Wisconsin CEO Gil Peri, and Madeline Schmidt from Marquette’s College of Nursing for a conversation about workforce demand, mental health, technology, and the human side of patient care. The group highlights the strong partnership between Marquette and Children’s Wisconsin, the growing demand for nurses, and why many students see nursing as both a career and a calling. The episode also explores how innovation and community partnerships are helping healthcare evolve while keeping relationships and compassion at the center. 🎙️ The Upswing is presented by Horicon Bank.
