Omg this is why I dont like facilities they always rush me on the floor and through orientation, and I just can't, so I've been working as a Pediatric Home Health Nurse for the past 4 years, which has been great but i would really like to utilize more of ny nursing skills so I finally started working nights at a LTC facility, I'm gon try this one more time, but they are already ready for me to work independently. Smh

Thank you for sharing your experiences. It has given me a new outlook. Your awesome and a good nurse!

“Rock out, do your thing, take your time, be kind to yourself” yes ma’am. ❤

You are the sweetest. Thank you for this video❤

Thanku❤

I really love the message at the end, I was honestly just expecting a video about med pass tips but this was so much more and I really needed to hear that psa at the end. As a new grad nurse, it touched my heart and I really appreciate your kind words, thank you <3

Thank you for this, I think god literally direct me towards this video, I’m currently in nursing school having the same situation, Thank you again!❤

Great video and advise.

I needed to see this today!!!!! thank you!!!

I needed to hear this. I gave up on skilled nursing because I was told I’m too slow with my med pass. Only to find out the other nurses never passed otc meds or vitamins to make their med pass quicker. 😢

Thank you for this video 💕!! I’m a new nurse in LTC and I’ve been working for a month. Lord the seasoned nurses are to the point they don’t care and they definitely eat their young sadly…

Phew thank you for this encouragement 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Thank you, very great tips.

I wish I can work with you lol

Why old nurse do that I hate that sometimes I feel like I want to quit nursing thank you for this video I’m 100% agree with you god bless you

Good for you! Or nurses with more experience I don’t like bullying nurses either

Wow these are great tips.🙏🏾❤

Ppl are bullies and they raise their kids to be that way as well 😔

I really needed to hear this today Thank you 🙏

Thanks. I am a new nurse working LCT. I have been so discouraged Because it is so much to learn and nurses can be so hurtful to new nurses, and i have been trying to finish my med pass quickly. But i am going to take your advice and just take my time. You are right 😅

New nurse here thank you for saying it. I am definitely feeling the heat about moving to slow. But I'm getting to know the people and making good connections with them instead of just being the licensed drug dealer.

I am 52 and I have owned a home care agency for 10 years. I feel as if I lost all of my nursing skills. I really want to start doing bedside nursing again, but I am at a lost. Do you have any suggestions or can you create a video on this topic? Thank you in advance.

I’m a medtech not a nurse and I’ve experienced the same thing..

Needed this.

THANK YOU FOR THIS LOVELY HEART FELT VIDEO! I am not a nurse however in Missouri we have a role called CMA-L1 (Certified Medication Aide-Level 1) we are allowed to pass meds in residential care facilities... I was first certified in 2000, I have worked off & on for years in various facilities, the last year I worked was 2016! I have been working in another field and recently decided to come back to this population. I returned to the field 3/25/2024... Omg, the level of disrespect is unreal and I am trying my best to find my way and NOT click out, they laugh at me because I move slow as I am learning how to use the damn electronic M.A.R. which may be simple but not really! Your tips are making me feel better already! I'm going in there from now on with my Ipod jamming my inspirational playlist and being unbothered as I make my bag! They keep reminding me that people keep quitting all the time, so I'll take the bullying in stride {{*_*}} as I stick with it to move at my pace!.

Absolutely LOVE this!!! You are a blessing to the nursing profession!

When you said pray😂😂😂😂I went to the dark side mentally “once you go through those doors , your gonna need Jesus” and then you took it to thanksgiving now I feel bad 😂😂😂

You are so helpful i love that 🙏🏾❤️

The only Mo 😂😂

TY for posting

Thank you for the message about nurse bullying. I get extreme anxiety fearing someone will treat me bad because I may not know something. God bless you and thank you.

nurses should motivate and lift up each other because we have similar goals and that is to give the best possible care to our patients we are not there to compete each other or bully younger or new nurses in the workplace. seasoned nurses should look back when they new and inexperienced too. If someone would ask for help about sth and i know the answer i would help tht nurse why not! it doesn't affect my ego or sth. I am always enthusiat to help.

Thank you so much❤️

In my opinion 3pm-11pm. Is tough especially when you have 12 finger sticks before supper and them trays are passed. Then they all need coverage ugh... But I always embrace the new and young cause the more the merrier I learned in nursing cause u can always use the help.

You are such a sweet soul!!! God bless you for this video! You helped me feel so much better about my first day alone in my new LTC facility. Thank you for this video! I was so caught up on being fast and hurrying through med pass, but you speaking about taking your time really helped me to realize it isn’t all about speed! ❤

Thanks for this video. God bless you for your compassion!

You are an angel…😇😇😇 God bless you abundantly!!🙏🙏🙏

That’s why I trying to go into agency as a nurse. I loved agency as a cna. I need the flexibility even more now that I’m a mom. I also find it easier to leave work at work as an agency worker because of the lack of commitment.

As a Nurse. Nurses are the worst to each other.

10 years still pray

Hate being a nurse

I’m struggling so bad 😢. This message made me cry

Yes it’s not a race but honestly I’m moving fast to get off my feet because if I don’t I won’t be a healthy nurse long enough. When I work 11-7 I bring my cart to the nursing station to prep my meds so I only have to stand for the actual med pass

Beautiful Lady, Thank You So Much For Being A Part of The Nursing Profession, We Need So Many Like You, Not Enough Professionals Like You. Most Importantly Always Stay the Way You Are. You Are Such A Blessing to Mankind!!!

This is exactly what I was looking for when searching for new grad tips. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Great tips. Too many videos about what they carried in their bags vs actual useful tips to be prepared on the floor.

This was so helpful thank you safe nurse over fast nurse over here!! 🙌🏾 Like you said its no competition find your rhythm it will definitely come.

U r right is not a race.

I think it's important to set up the top of your med cart. I set up my cart the same way everytume so I can grab thing rhythmically.

I was bullied by a nurse who has 30 yrs of experience vs me who has 2 months. I was supposed to ask the ADON but he was not in his office so since it's next to the nurse station where the UM was, I asked her thinking she might be able to help. The problem was we don't have 1.5 cal feeding for one of our residents but only 1.2. So I asked her what can I use. She then looked at me removed her glasses and said "That's when you do your math lady, you calculate your calories , that's when you do your math" and she told me with an ATTITUDE and other nurses can hear. I honestly wanted to disappear because I felt so embarrassed and stupid at the same time. There's a lot of things I wasn't taught while in school. We have a conversion in our med room but that particular feeding wasn't listed there. I honestly wanted to give up that day. I am thankful for people who's non judgmental it means so much to me <3

I'm just starting out and this is striking home right now. I'm struggling with med pass and balancing all other things that need to be done. I'm starting out in an SNF so my ratios are kinda high and I could relate when you said you felt like you were slow and that you need to speed up, I feel that way A LOT. I even came from a different country so the practice and standards are not the same. To all my fellow nurses out there, and specially to those who are just starting out, we got this and eventually we will be good nurses. Do not give up cause I need ya'll to not give up too <3
