•The pre-flight speech is well known, and it includes a phrase that generally says in case of emergency, to put your own oxygen mask on first, then help others. This can be extrapolated to the nursing community at large, and specifically those nurses working night or odd-hour shifts.•This project creates a seminar for nurses that creates an interactive educational setting that discusses the factors affecting personal wellness, including odd-hour and shift work, the impact of healthy personal behaviors, wellness strategies, as well as the impact on the organization and other stakeholders.•The objectives are to describe the stressors related to nursing care in the hospice environment (specifically including the impact of odd-hour and night shift work in respect to overall health) and to address health management, provide wellness tools, and distribute informational material regarding topics such as healthy foods, supplements, exercise, and alternative methods of healing
