U.S. Nurse Suicide Rates are Rising

America’s Heroes Group podcast, episode 362, covers the rising nurses’ suicide rate in the U.S. Adelena Marshall, a VA Mental Health RN, joins us along with Carolina Stewart, nurse and CNL employed at the VA hospital.

“The majority of this seems to come from the burnout within the healthcare organizations,” Stewart explained. “The nurses tirelessly give their all to care for our Veterans and not necessarily having all of the resources or support that we need.”

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs strives to provide Veterans the world-class benefits and services they have earned—and to do so by adhering to the highest standards of compassion, commitment, excellence, professionalism, integrity, accountability, and stewardship.

America Heroes Group’s mission is to honor and respect the relentless commitment, ultimate sacrifice, and unwavering dedication of our retired Veterans and Active Service members thereby empowering and transforming their lives as they age in place and reacclimate back into society through identifying and positioning local and national communities as military friendly.
