I'm glad this is enlightening

I'm glad you loved it and found it helpful. There's plenty more of such videos on my channel. Remember no 2shifts are the same, even if it's the same patients on the next day. Patient condition can easily change suddenly. I wish u all the best as you like, share and support my channel by subscribing.

Someone needs to ring the alarm

Yep!

Can't wait!

That's a good analogy of the fact! Well said

What has been your experience so far as a nurse? Please kindly share with others here. Thanks

@@Stephanieayi01 Some days I honestly question my career choice as a nurse but some other days really affirm that I am meant to be a nurse.

Thank you so much 😀

Thank u

Hhhhmmmmm

Thank you so much for being nice and patient with me. Please share to all your friends for moral support

So Glad it was helpful! Give yourself time to get the hang of so many things. I'm almost 4yrs into this career and even though I feel like I've learnt so much, there's still so much ahead of me to learn. You'll get through this. Just trust the process

Well, it depends what the patient is at the hospital for and what questions to ask during bedside shift change. For example, if patient is in for CHF, I like to ask during shift report if - they have edema - lung congested with cough - on Lasix - blood pressure with Lasix? - any breathing issues that need PRN breathing treatments? -If they have edema, what's the pitting? -If on Lasix, what's the potassium and Blood pressure like? How are they peeing? Indwelling foley catheter or external or urinal? How much urine are they putting out? -If congested, do they cough up and spit out, use oral Suctioning, what color is the sputum? How many liters of oxygen if any? -What's the blood pressure like with the lasix? I know what questions to ask, that will shorten my time spent reading notes.

Hhhhhmmmmmm are u sure? Because I get a beautiful sweet marshmallow scent from Fireside Flurries and Sensual Amber is an absolute to die for in my opinion. 2 opposite scent profiles but very gorgeous aura!

You are so welcome! I'm glad my videos are eye-opening and enlightening. There's plenty other videos on my channel and many still to be edited. All the best Stay stuned.

I hope so too! Thank you so much. What other questions or concerns would you want me to address in subsequent videos?

I can make a video on that but be mindful that not all hospitals use the same pump. I started at a hospital that uses the Alaris pump. My current hospital previously used a different small pump and now switched to this pump. Expect a video on this pump soon!

What other video contents would u like to see or what other questions do u have for me?

You do duty vlog :D

U couldn't have said it any better!

So nice of you

Thanks

Comes with the territory

Glad you enjoyed it!

so true

Totally agree with u!

some hospital equipments look scary

I totally agree with you! Plus in my hospital, you scan the IV meds and scan the pump and it automatically inputs the rates as ordered and syncs to EPIC too! It was definitely a moment getting use to at first but then, here we are loving it

I'm glad you're enjoying and appreciating the effort. I feel its one thing to just talk about it and a different thing to actually see the equipments even if not when used on the patient due to HIPPA. It makes a whole lot of difference

I'm glad it's helping you out. Please stay tuned

Thank you so much. I try to share the knowledge I have with the techs and new nurses. It makes me learn and even remember more 🫡

Now I Know!

It truly was!

Will do in subsequent videos in the future. Thank u for stopping and enjoying my videos

I love my job. I honestly do, but don't get me wrong, some days, some patients just drive u to the wall. Best decision everrrrr! Thank you for stopping by

HIPPA violation is a big thing! I can't show most of the equipments because I risk exposing patients and sometimes I can't show how to use the equipments without actually needing it because they go to waste after that, so please bear with me. I'm going way beyond sometimes in what I show my audience but I have to sometimes run it by another nurse to see if I missed something that exposes a patient. I'll do my best to show the medications 💊 but not so much how to use some of the equipments. Sorry 😞

I've always believed Nclex is not all about studying, you need God's grace to pass

People keep talking about Mr Andrews all over KZbin, he must be very awesome help

@Yes you're correct but remember heaven helps those who help themselves, try studying if you can't study then get yourself a good help

I studied for months and couldn't pass, i guess passing is a blessing.

Nclex might seem so tough to pass but studying very hard is a very vital skill to win trust me

That's the idea behind my videos. So Many people don't know about the stepdown ICU unit so I want to spread the awareness and what happens on this floor

so true

Thank you so much 💓

me too

been thinking myself

she breaks it down for u to envision the possibility of working with such patients

I think it's worth it especially if you want to feel involved in the care of your patients.

Don't overthink it. U will definitely have preceptorship program b4 u r left on your own but still with so many nurses around u to hold your hand.

U won't be alone. I still ask questions 4-5yrs into this game and so everyone will understand u

You are very welcome. Thank you for your support

indeed

Hello, glad that my videos are inspiring to you. Your situation is to be expected esp if u are a new nurse or never been exposed to the hosiptal system. I know I was once so nervous transitioning to being a nurse. You will be OK, just give it time

Yep please send them my way. Email in the description box. Thank you 😊

@@Stephanieayi01 I'll bring em to you. (I'm curious as to if you know who I am lol)

@@Stephanieayi01 I have no idea how you ended up in my suggestions

@@runfayalife sorry who is this please? ☺️

@@Stephanieayi01 I'll give you a clue. 5757#

Pls send them my way or share to every aspiring nurse u know. Thank u

So true, sometimes it's because they try need our help and other times some patients just love attention

Hello I'm glad u are loving my contents. Please join the family by subscribing

Great to hear! I'm glad my videos are helping u alot. We'll, on the stepdown ICU unit we do have CNAs who take vital signs. If any vital sign is abnormal, re-do it. If still abnormal, check if there's any underlying condition which the patient may have which causes that abnormal vital sign, otherwise, if it is life threatening, reach out to the provider or call a rapid response and anticipate new orders. I had a patient who normally has low blood pressures in the 90s systolic. In that case, it's nothing to worry unless patient is symptomatic. Obviously, if BP is high and patient doesn't have a PRN BP medication, u will reachout to the provider for some medication bec patient risks having a stroke if persistent left unattended to. I hope this helps

Thank you so much my dear. I truly love my job
