What can nearly 50 years in nursing teach the next generation of nurses? Pierre Beauge, BSN, RN, sits down with his longtime mentor, April Baker, for a full-circle conversation about nursing careers, oncology care, IV therapy, leadership, burnout, and mentorship.

April shares how she began her career as an LPN, became an RN, built experience in oncology and IV therapy, moved into nursing leadership, and mentored nurses—including Pierre. Together, they look back at how healthcare has changed, from oncology nursing in the 1970s to today’s outpatient care, COVID-era challenges, and new technology.

They also discuss hands-on nursing education, the emotional weight of caring for seriously ill patients, nurse burnout, leadership, nursing traditions, and the lessons April believes every new nurse should hear.

This episode is for nursing students, new nurses, experienced RNs and LPNs, oncology nurses, nurse leaders, and anyone considering a career in nursing.

Pierre Beauge, BSN, RN, is the founder of Solux Health Solutions, a nurse-led concierge home care agency focused on compassionate, personalized care.
