Indigenous nurses bring more than clinical expertise to their practice—they bring a legacy of resilience, cultural knowledge, and a commitment to holistic care that honors their ancestors, culture, and history. For Native and Indigenous nurses, advancing practice means blending tradition and cultural humility with innovation to meet the unique needs of their communities, build trust, and transform health outcomes. In this episode, we learn from Chippewa Indian Nurse researcher and educator Misty Wilkie PhD, RN, FAAN an Indigenous nurse director of the Doctoral Education Pathway for American Indian/Alaska Native Nurses at the University of Minnesota School of Nursing, to explore how the Center for Indigenous People, Health & Nursing is devoted to improving the health and well-being of Indigenous people and communities works toward reconciliation. Aiming to eliminate health disparities by building trusting relationships with Tribal Nations, developing evidence-based practices, and preparing doctorally trained Indigenous healthcare leaders, Misty Wilkie emphasizes the power of honoring tradition, language, and strengths to shape more inclusive, equitable healthcare systems.
