If there were a radio station that nurses were going to listen to, wouldn't it make sense for it to be called "RN"? Does such a radio station exist? Actually, yes.Australian Broadcasting Corporation (Autralia's BBC, I guess) provides Radio National (RN) for Australian listeners. Although not all the programs are related to nursing, a surprising number could be interesting/educational for student nurses or registered nurses. Of particular interest are shows called All in the Mind about psychology/psychiatry and Health Report. Also Ockham's Razor, about science, and Philosopher's Zone, about miscellaneous topics, have quite a few shows that touch on nursing themes. Right now, a sampling of ABC RN radio podcasts available for download includes:
- Three shows in All in the Mind on the history of asylums. (1,2,3)
- Health Report on CT angiography for the heart and recent research on weight loss diets
- Philosopher's Zone on whether moral dilemmas really exist
- RN Artworks on art and anatomy
- Background Briefing on the upcoming problem of babyboomers' deaths
- Street Stories on a masters Mr. Universe champion
- The 2007 Boyer lectures: six lectures on physical senses and medicine
- Rear Vision on the history of medicine
