Description

Cronin's team across four lands built a reflection framework for nurses crossing menopause. It collides with care loads, shifting family roles, and workplace demands. Many women describe feeling alone and threats to who they are. The team blended known thoughtful practice models with studies of the change.

Their MIRROR Cycle packages diaries, reflective guidance, Schwartz rounds, structured debriefs, and calm focus. Stigma, silence, split services, and workplace ageism compound distress in the change. Placing this practice in schools, clinics, and policy may help nurses cope and stay. The goal is workplaces that understand the change, not private silent struggle.
