Stressed, Silenced, and Sacrificed: Why Glennae’s RX for Life is the Career Burnout Solution Nurses Desperately Need The latest report from AMN Healthcare paints a grim picture: our nation’s nurses, especially Gen Z and millennial professionals, are emotionally drained, underappreciated, and dangerously close to walking away from a profession they once felt called to. The shortage isn’t just about numbers

—it’s about broken systems, traumatized caregivers, and silenced voices.

At Glennae’s RX for Life, we recognize that today’s nursing crisis didn’t begin with COVID-19—but it certainly got worse because of it.

Younger nurses were thrust into the front lines of a global pandemic, working impossible shifts with no breaks, no preparation, and no protection for their mental health. Many were forced to make career-altering decisions—like accepting vaccinations they were unsure about—not because of personal choice, but because it was the only way to keep their jobs. They were told it was “for the greater good,” and never given the tools or the freedom to question, advocate, or push back.

Now, the result is a generation of caregivers stripped of autonomy, buried under crushing patient loads, and unsure how to speak up for themselves after years of being silenced.

Enter Glennae’s RX for Life.
