Welcome to The Bold Brief—
You are a member of this community of top-notch expert nurses and healthcare professionals who aspire to be “bold” in career and life.
We want to be bold in our life’s purpose, and bold in life and career choices so that we can live with authenticity, balance, and meaningful challenges, driving forward with confidence.
So…what are the 3 things Bold Nurses carry into every room?
Transform your resume into an industry powerhouse
In every edition of The Bold Brief, we return to the same foundation of ABCDs:
Authenticity, Balance, and meaningful Challenge while Driving forward with Confidence.
These ABCDs are a way of showing up, especially when you are the only nurse in the room, the only voice asking a better question, or the only one who sees what others miss.
While the Bold Brief Team is away at HLTH Inc. 2025 in Las Vegas this week, keep your authentic self-forward facing in every room you enter.
This week’s edition is a
Refresher on the unique healthcare sectors where expert nurses and healthcare professionals work when the bedside is not longer authentic to their needs.
Reminder of the inner tools you take with you every day. These are the tools authentic to only you that anchor your voice and sharpen your impact.
Regardless of whether you are at the bedside, leading from the front line or in the boardroom, anywhere somewhere in between.
A Refresher
Healthcare Sub-Industries/Sectors
For nurses seeking to transition into non-traditional roles, it's important to understand the diverse sub-industries within healthcare. These sectors such as HealthTech, MedTech, Biotech, Pharmaceuticals, and Medical Devices, offer unique opportunities to apply clinical expertise in innovative ways.
In Bold Brief Subscriber Coaching sessions, we dig deeper into these areas and we love having Bold Nurse Academy graduates as guests who share their experiences from these roles/industries/sectors. Because the Bold Brief team is at HLTH 2025, I wanted to share some specific.
HealthTech and MedTech (Healthcare Technology and Medical Technology)
HealthTech involves software solutions and digital tools designed to improve healthcare access and efficiency. MedTech, on the other hand, focuses on devices and technology used by healthcare professionals to diagnose, treat, and monitor patients.
For example, Hello Heart provides the first connected monitor, pill box, and app to help people track and manage their heart health. I also will visit OpenLoop for clinicians.
Biotech (Biotechnology)
Biotech centers around the development of medical products incorporating biological processes. Companies in this space are at the forefront of producing therapies for complex and chronic conditions. I will be visiting BioBeat and SNT Biotech Lab at HLTH 2025.
Pharmaceuticals (Pharma)
The pharmaceutical industry is dedicated to researching and producing medications and vaccines. Pharmaceuticals play a critical role in disease treatment and prevention. I look forward to visiting all the major pharma and CROs at HLTH 2025.
Medical Devices
The medical device industry designs, manufactures, and distributes tools used to diagnose, monitor, and treat health conditions. Medical devices are essential in clinical settings, and their development involves rigorous testing to meet safety and regulatory standards.
For example, at HLTH 2025 I will be looking to visit CNTRL+ bladder support for women!
By understanding these sub-industries/sectors, nurses can explore new pathways to contribute to healthcare innovation beyond traditional clinical roles. Each sector offers opportunities to impact patient care and drive advancements in the medical field.
“Your clinical skills are your foundation, but your ability to lead, innovate, and solve problems with confidence will set you apart in any industry. Let your experience tell the story of the difference you make.”
