Was your first week like the way he says

AW! ❤️😂👍🏼

Is it ok if I still say "I'm the new nurse" even though I've been a nurse for 5 years?! HAHAHA

@@NurseBlake too funny....I understand tho. Healthcare changes everyday. I still feel new with things and it's been 13 years 🤪

@@NurseBlake your not that new what type of nursing do you do

Lol saying that is important

@@NurseBlake 3 years but same though lol

jmcdermott40 same

Same

Because we are new somewhere so it’s relatable... they’re stakes are much high though!! 😂

Funny thing is....it's so accurate. xD

That was my favourite part too

I was surprised they didn't say 20 years tbh

Hahaha I laughed so hard for real 😂😂😂

I thought they were gonna say 40 years...

@@goha9218 Try 23 years!! Thank God for the internet....makes it so much easier to look stuff up now! :)

Kdot prem Always make sure to ask a different person not just with nurses but not understanding something but not wanting to re ask lol

I have doctors who have worked in the same clinic for 5 years ask me the code to THEIR OFFICE.

@@sammieantha883 yes, right..

It's always 1234*

@@nancyparra5741 our hospital's are all different. no two doors are the same. took me forever to remember all of the codes. thankfully the tower just badges in.

Lol isn't that how it usually is. Like a ghost

RIP in peace Caspar

tahoemist H hahaha! Yes! A ghost. Nowhere to be seen. Haha!

Kristyn Hand please say a prayer for ICU and covid unit nurses. My heart just ache when I am assign to help out. U can feel the eeriness in the atmosphere

Medical/Clinical Lab scientists, Doctors, and Nurses are like the trinity of heroes rn ❤️ I appreciate them so much.

Hospitals are a scam, 2020 is the year they actually have to do their jobs

@@Scarlet-Ghoull Oh they're still a scam hun. And so is covid. Yes it exists but not as nearly to the extent as they are leading us to believe.

@@Scarlet-Ghoull EXCUSE ME! IVE BEEN AN RN FOR 20 YEARS AND FOR 20 YEARS I HAVE BEEN DOING MY JOB‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Good luck !

Omgosh so funny I just got hired as patient transport and I’m also planning on nursing school. I have 3 more classes to take for my pre-reqs and then I can apply 🥲 good luck to you!!

@0:00 you can clearly see on the board it’s spelled “Caspar”. Idk if you are a nurse, but your assessment skills need some work lol

@@herculesdelcb6582 k

@@deandragriffiths3137 lol so does all the other people that liked your comment! so dont feel bad lol its okay....

By reading your comment I just realized he was saying “Casper” 😂😂😂😩😩

Hercules DelCB Got em😂😂😂

This killed me

That part had me in stitches 🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂 that part took me all way out

😂😂😂😂

I don’t know you but thank you, Sylvia 😊. It takes a certain kind of person to be a nurse: someone with nerves of steel but a heart of pure gold. 💕. I spent over a year in hospital after my life turned to hell and if it wasn’t for all of the nurses helping me and getting me through the hard times (especially when my parents weren’t able to be there) and gently pushing me to push myself a bit further, I would have lost it completely. The beyond hard and endless work you as nurses do is just astounding AND outstanding and I really truly hope you know how much 99.9% of us truly appreciate everything you do to help and comfort us.. even when you’ve left your private issues at home, you always put patients first and I just admire how amazing you all are. So thank you, truly. ❤️

@@kieleahar1012 It is our pleasure to care for you. I'm so glad that you are recovering or have recovered. Our Patients make the job worth doing. All the background chatter and disgruntleness fades away when its time to care for our Patients. I have a lot to be thankful for and my career in Nursing is right up there in the top 3. Sending you blessings and good health wishes

Thank you for what you do Nurse Sylvia. Thank you for taking care of us always, but especially through this once-per-century pandemic. How are you feeling? Do you think you might retire soon? Nurses are burning out now more than ever probably. I have a feeling you're the anchor of your Team :)

@@Lee-fw9mr Hi Lee!! Thank you so much for your kind words. This is my 40th year of Nursing. Yes I’m looking forward to spending time on the beach and finally writing that novel that has been rolling around in my head.

I gotta say this is the most wholesome comment section I have ever seen. Thank you guys❤

Krystal Colwill bwahhahaha ACCURATE

Hahahahahahahahaha it's so true!!!!

I'm not tryna get yelled at

😂😂😂

"call the doctor" was my very first thought 🤣🤣🤣

Awe she thought the kiwi 🥝 was an avocado 🥑 I thought that was cute I’m not trying to be rude I just thought that mistake was adorable lol

Lmao dude bout to start school this is genius

Omg 😂😂😂

Jen Macri I love that it's kiwi 😹

This is my new favorite thing!!! I'm a paramedic and going to bridge to RN in the next couple of years.

Me I’m exactly the same! 🥵😔 I start next week lol

@@Eksxx let us know how it went!

omg girl ill pray for u! Im sure you'll be great though. Like nurse Jackie said when Zoe told her she didn't think she was gonna be able to hack it " the fact that you care enough for your fellow man to even get this far makes you 100% better than most people" ...yes all my nursing experience is from Nurse Jackie and "Nurses" on Hulu....so...yeah...but I also think this is going to be me except 10x worse with my ADD, unorganized, poor time management and anxiety!!! right there with you. Good thing I have like two years to sweat about it before Im expected to even to bedside

Weirdly enough, develop a work personality. You know how Beyoncé had her alter Sasha Fierce? Create your own Sasha Fierce for work. Someone that has the qualities that you want from a nurse and what you want to compensate for. I’m usually very shy and anxious too but at work I put myself in a different mindset to help me work through that and be a better EMT 💓

Me too 🤦🏻‍♀️

So true. Emptying colostomy bags and what not was a breeze for me since I’d done it hundreds of times before

I became a much better nurse because I was a cna first.

I want to do that but hos did you manage it ?💀 school AND CNA job

Same It's so needed to build rapport with the staff and the nurse manager, you know the layout of the hospital, you know the layout of the clean utility, and even just how to turn a pt. It's needed

@@l.o.i4214 Most CNA jobs are flexible. My hospital has a minimum of four shifts a month. The shifts are only 8 hours and they have flexible times, plus pretty decent pay too. It is amazing experience!

Samantha Bentz best of luck, wherever you are starting @!

Hercules DelCB thank you!

Congratulations hubs 🥳🤩

Samantha Bentz early congrats

Samantha Bentz let me know

Your amazing! We appreciate you more than you think.

Your amazing! We appreciate you more than you think.

Hope you doing well and staying safe.......

Hope you doing well and staying safe.......

Right! 33 years in and so much change!! Everything is harder. The stress and anxiety is extreme!

@@ontoyoualways9183 oh Goodness this is my 6th year in and Hearing this from an 18 year and 33 year nurse idk what to think lol!

I did because the patients always were wondering why I was being followed around by another nurse... XD

I'm the kind of patient that if u tell that im like its ok just relax it'll be fine

We can tell 😂

Psychiatric floor?

I especially stressed that when I knew I didn't know what the heck I was doing. Especially when I had to shadow on a ortho trauma floor for a few months, I stressed the "new nurse" with vigour.

Hehehehehe

Hang in there! It takes about a year to feel you can handle whatever comes thru the door. We need you so don't give up!!!

Really? I assumed Caspar was latino

yeah because he definitely dipped when he found out he was precepting that morning lol!

YIP YIP

M R hilarious

M R LOL aweee bless you

Why are you like this? 😂 Hope you have self confidence.

😂 That's me!!! But often more insecure. But that doesn't stop me from doing my job. 😎

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣oh my God!

🧡 that! Should have used that line when I was a CNA

Also a LTC nurse. I have said the same thing to those that think they are dying. "No dying on my shift, it's too much paperwork". They just roll their eyes and laugh at me. One said "when do you leave?" And then responded "Ok I'll wait til after 10". I love when I get resident's that have the same morbid sense of humor I do.

LTC nurse too. Hilarious I say the same thing but in my head. LOL

I hear u on that paperwork!!!!its a horror

cna.

As a male nurse... I disagree.

Ironically I know no male nurses like this...other than his trait of being kinda goofy

You and I know very different male nurses.

Maybe the people you work with. Never saw a male nurse act like him 😂. If only. He’s hilarious

You attracted all the male nurses and made them angwi >:(

Hello, how are you doing?

😂😂😂

Nicole3900 well? What’s the answer ? I need to know just in case one day I decide to become a nurse

@@Softnsweetbb i wanna know too 😂

What is the anwser?

Leah Henny find out the extensions for the radiology department and call them to order a scan if the pt is inpatient :). Outpatient scans usually go through a scheduling dept!

@@Softnsweetbb the answer to the first part or the second? For an MRI they (the MRI people) will call me and ask if the patient is going to need anxiety meds before going, ask if they're on oxygen, tell me what time the patient will go, etc. Then somebody from transport comes up to get the patient when it's time for the MRI. It's a lot simpler than I originally thought haha. The most annoying part is if a patient does require anxiety meds (like if they're claustrophobic) and they have none ordered and so I have to call the doctors in the middle of the night to get an order. The nightshift hospitalists are nice but the orthopedic and neurospine surgeons who are on call are usually jerks and I hate having to call them!! Some patients are patients of the hospitalist and it's super easy to page them, I just send a text page. Others are patients of ortho or neurospine and it's a much more annoying process. I have to call the call center, ask the operator who's on call, have them tell the provider to call me, wait for the provider to call me, then finally answer the phone when they do call and endure their annoyed attitude that I woke them up in the middle of the night for a non-medical emergency. Good times!

Right!!!!!

I just got hired as a PCT and this gives me hope, I’m so nervous and scared that I’ll mess up

Wait cnas can touch IVs??

@@ceceruben6113 no they cant.

Half of this applies to being a cna as well

Haha! Oh, hey Blake! lol

kare429 he doesn’t work at the thousands of hospitals you might work with shitty coworkers

@@LuxuryIncorp 💀Way to kill the vibe

Hope you doing well and staying safe.......

You’re a strong dancer! Never stop girlie!

Congratulations 🎉 becoming a pharmacist! Much love for our drug experts 🥰

This was great.. I heard this several times from nurses over the years as a hospital pharmacist! It was always nice to go down on the floor and see where I could lend a hand, answer questions, etc.

@@christinajackson2662 Thank you!! 😃

I came here to say the exact same thing! I am still a student but have work experience in community and volunteer experience in hospital pharmacy - loved the shout out! :)

Katie Robertson you’ll do great!! Good luck!! 😊

Me too!!!! So nervous 😭

You’ll be just fine girl! 😊

Katie Robertson good luck !!!

good luck!! let us know how you did!!!

I never cried but was scared AF! Still am! You should see me fumbling with the IV pumps

You cry even if you are not new.

I took a cna program to get experience before I apply for nursing. Now I am too freaking scared to start and apply a job to actually get the experience. Already 3 months passed and still scared.

@Hector Josue SIlva Acosta Hi, I finally started to apply for jobs, but I have no luck since I'm looking for part-time only as I am still in school finishing my last class and working another job. I might just go for caregiver job just to lessen my nerves as I have no experience. I will try apply for full time next time.

Me

Abby C. Our JCI visit will be next week and I’m one of the front liners 😫 hopefully we will get it this time Good thing they are announcing, in our hospital the Quality, infection etc people will be in front of you out of nowhere 😅

EN ZI were u guys able to get it?

Same!

I love Love Love u u u so so much also .i am single ❤❤😍😍🌷🌷🌷

NOOOOOO THIS WAS SOO MEEE

I'm dying😂😂😂

Shoot I planned my future and I told myself to buy everyone pizza and donuts for my first day on the job. Looks like the 20 other nurses are gonna have them too.

I didn’t even know this was a thing? F*** everyone at my job! 🤣🤣

Did it even help? XDDD I’m super nervous about everything n I feel too shy to do this on the first day but kudos to u💕

Am single ❤❤❤😍😍🌷🌷

Nela Biel Good Luck Boyfriend !!🥰

My husband is in this phase now and I’m 5 years in and enjoying every min 😂😂

(If you haven’t already) y’all should check out Nurse Blake’s video about dating a nurse. I can’t remember what it’s called but it’s so funny and I’m sure you guys will be able to relate 😅

Good luck to him ,

IKR that’s a great idea!

I love u really i am alone meet me ❤❤😍😍🌷🌷

What is a safe word?

You need to work with better nurses lol

@@AT-sx2jp lol this is true

My nurses tell me that all the time, but it’s when I work on the floor with them, not just in the pharmacy

Pharmacy is one of the MOST underrated medical professions. It's honestly appalling 😂 I work in a hospital pharmacy and nurses treat us like DIRT.

Pharmacists ARE amazing, and thankfully the nurses I know (who are also amazing!) would agree :)

💞💞💕💕😍😍❤❤

You got this!!!

Don’t be nervous ❤️ My cohort is graduating in December...we did it and so can you! Best of luck!! 😊❤️

Give it your all. Put your heart and soul in and you won’t go wrong. Promise.

I'm in the same boat Rain Drops 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Don't worry, my first day at clinical I was so nervous about seeing my first patient that my instructor had to introduce us for me. Now I've been an RN for almost fifteen years. Some tips that's helped me over the years. Address the patient as Mr. or Ms. Smith, don't just automatically call them by their first name. I find especially the baby boomers, older generation see it as a sign of respect. When a patient asks what time you will be back in their room don't say ten minutes because after nine minutes they will say where are you. Say, "I'll be back later." Remember that you are only one person with two hands so you can only do one thing at a time. You don't need to know everything at the top of your head, say, "I need to look that up". The first time I introduce myself to my patient I say with a smile, "Hi, my name is -----, I'm going to be your nurse today." And I might wave at them a little to make sure they see me. Usually if you start off in a friendly, happy way like that you get a nicer response and build report with the patient. When I give their am meds I'll will ask how they feel or if they were able to get some sleep last night. Again showing you care and getting a feel for the patient. Even if I get in report from the previous nurse that the patient is nasty I pretend I'm going in with a clean slate and introduce myself with a smile and little wave. I find it helps more often than not. Just do the best you can. Don't take any negativity you encounter personally and be patient with yourself! Trust your instincts and ask questions. I've been an RN almost fifteen years and am still learning! You can do it! Good luck! ; )

Nurses yell at pharmacists?? The nurses where I do clinical are like bffs with the pharmacists 🤣 usually they’re both in it together when they don’t want to annoy the doctor lmao

Since when is it a thing? You have a serious attitude problem. It is like family.

I’ve never yelled at my pharmacist in 20 years

Lol, I’ve seen nurses yell at phlebotomists because they need labs . Oh and their patients have both a central and Picc line. How about show them some respect and give them more recognition than they get

In my country pharmacist are highly respected. We know you know the chemistry of the how the when and why with drugs.

Thanks for watching! Tell all your classmates and campus director that I said HELLO!

😚😙😘❤❤😍🌷🌷am single
