\nCelebrating Nurses: A Filmmaker Witnesses Our World
\n\nCarolyn Jones—author and filmmaker behind The Americ an Nurse Project and Defining Hope—spent over 10 years documenting the wor k of nurses across the country\, a journey that led her to conclude that “ without them\, we don’t stand a chance.” That was before the global corona virus pandemic that has thrust our nation’s nurses even further onto the f rontlines of healthcare\, addressing our physical and emotional needs befo re sending us back out into the world. When COVID hit\, she had an opportu nity to see what emergency nurses were dealing with on the front lines of the pandemic. In this session\, Jones will share excerpts and stories from her book The American Nurse\, and her three documentary films\, including the recently released In Case of Emergency\, shedding light on some of th e biggest health care challenges facing Americans today—from the opioid cr isis to gun violence to behavioral health and lack of insurance—and the wa ys in which nurses are able to tackle them head-on.
\nCarolyn Jones is an award-winning photographer and filmmaker who has devoted her career to celebrating invisible populations and breaking down barriers. She has p ublished multiple books include Living Proof: Courage in the Face of AIDS and The American Nurse\, and directed three feature documentaries focused on nurses: The American Nurse\, Defining Hope\, and most recently In Case of Emergency\, which focuses on our nation’s biggest public health challen ges—from COVID-19 to the lack of health insurance to the devastating impac t of the opioid crisis.

She is a fellow of the American Academy of Nursing and the Philadelphia College of Physicians\, the oldest medical society in th e United States.
\nThe COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented s trains on healthcare professionals\, particularly direct care providers an d the institutions in which they work. High levels of stress among direct care providers are well documented by the American Nurses Association and have been widely reported in the media and literature\, including levels o f depression\, anxiety\, and suicide. Demands on nurse educators have also increased as in-person instruction converted to other formats and clinica l sites discontinued student experiences. This presentation will focus on secondary stress — that extra layer of stress that results from the demand s of caring for others. Self-awareness and intentionally designed self-car e strategies are key in building resilience\, some of which will be descri bed in this session.
