About

I'm Dwayne, and this is Charge Nurse

I'm Dwayne, a night-shift nurse in Houston. I've worked nights on a hospital ward for nineteen years, and I started Charge Nurse in a spare bedroom with one microphone and a cup of coffee going cold.

Every Thursday I sit down after my shift with a guest from a different corner of the hospital, a porter, a lab scientist, a ward clerk, a pharmacist, and we talk about what their night is like. It is a show about working in a hospital, not about your health.

Questions

How often do you publish?

Every Thursday morning, about forty-five minutes.

Can I suggest a guest?

Yes. Write to me from the form and I read every message.

Where can I hear you live?

Twice a year in a community theatre in Houston, announced to the list first.

Is the show medical advice?

No. It is about what working in a hospital is like. It does not replace talking to your own doctor or nurse.
