Having a family member dealing with cancer and recovering affer a transplant really made me so grateful for the oncology nurses. They are one of the most compassionate and sweet people ever and are so wonderful and kind. I love your videos and this video was so cool seeing you working as an oncology nurse

[@EliseChen]

i'm so sorry, hope your family member is doing well now

[@shayb2280]

I’m here bc oncology is one of the specialties I’ve always been curious and interested in. I have less than a year left of my program and hope I can get an externship in either NICU or Oncology. Thank you for you video!

[@avanikagupta7922]

Your transition was so cute! Also shocked at how D is allowing you to poke needles into him FOR PRACTICE what a guy

[@bebehk]

Doing God's work, truly. Thank you ♥️

[@felitasalim5856]

Love this!! thank you for being so transparent with your nursing journey and happy nurses week!!

[@Heyitslindsey]

LOVED this! I'm a junior and really looking into oncology nursing and this was motivating. I hope it's going well. Would love to see more vids/updates too!

[@veerose2063]

I'm in term 5 out of 8 of the RN program and I have to submit my request form for practicum placements by next month. I love nursing but I have absolutely no idea where I'd see myself working! I thought about maternity bc I liked how patient centred it was but part of me is curious about complex illnesses. I found your channel while looking up videos about oncology nursing- I look forward to catching up on your nursing journey! :) (I also just started my YT this year hehe)

[@alvina8231]

Oncology nursing is where I eventually want to be! Thank you for the awesome vlog :) I subscribed instantly.

[@maitrg]

watching this again because i am starting my new job as an oncology nurse so soon. thanks for the inspiration.

[@EliseChen]

hope you're liking your new job!! :)

[@ericapadilla2053]

Very motivated wanted to become a pediatric nurse now I want to be a oncologist RN just like you. You inspire me 👌💫

[@jinsu0504]

lol i love comparing everyones nclex videos and the "day in the life of so and so..." videos couple of years later....10/10 people have that shine of innocence taken away...haha i miss the days of nursing school...Im still one of the lucky few who still keep in touch with my classmates from back in the day...we still meet and eat, talk about work, talk about school...

[@elmirakamolova4606]

I work as a onco nurse in the Uzbekistan. Recently I want to work as a onco nurse in the UK. Thanks for sharing your typical day

[@latanyaburrell2502]

Love your progress ❤️❤️. As alway, it’s such a pleasure watching your video

[@tiffanychin4906]

How did you find the transition from first starting in primary care to an inpatient hospital setting without going through a new grad residency program?

[@thenursenextdoor]

I miss New York so much. I love your day in the life videos. They are so fun to watch. Please make some more 💕

[@Kirimchu]

Wow so cool I am studying as a nurse and I am excited to be a nurse even tho rn I am doing so bad rn nursing program but I still have hope that I will make it and be able to work like you in the hospital and btw I live in nyc too ❤❤ and also how hard was the rn exam??

[@aw8758]

Never done an iv?! Sorry but for all CU tuition costs that is shocking…do you think it was due to covid and them not being able to fully have clinical in the hospital? I have a mandatory lab practicing ivs in my absn program. I know there is no specific iv course in nursing school but that’s very surprising. Please make a video when you feel comfortable showing us how you do it..some tips on ivs maybe! Thank you!

[@RN-PRN]

Where Im from, nursing students are not allowed to insert an IV. 😒 I had to learn on my first year as a nurse to insert one. This is pre covid, years ago. My sister who just graduated last year is proficient in inserting iv’s cuz it was allowed where she lived (we live in two different state). Weird, rite?

[@aw8758]

@@RN-PRN i understand not being allowed to insert iv on patients but completely not knowing how to do an iv, not having practiced in lab on one another or sim lab is kind of insane esp considering how much CU program is. but i totally understand it is weird

[@genevieveantwi6721]

my school doesnt allow it either. We had maybe one lab day on it but that was it. they dont focus on it in school since we cant do it

[@daniellecoffey4039]

I graduated in 2021 and we had an iv practice day where we started them on the fake arms then we did them on each other. After we were successful on each other they allowed us to do them in clinical if the opportunity came but it didn’t happen often since most patients were already on the unit. If a pt pulled one out they would call for a student to restart it but not all of us had that chance.. I attempted to once on a real patient but

[@OgFarrow]

I had to watch a video online how to learn how to insert an IV and my school gave us a competency test on a dummy arm to perform it on with no practice lol

[@lizyso5573]

Love this. It was so easy to follow you through the day. Thank you for sharing

[@Avocado.locs.]

I’m so proud of you!!! 👏🏾👏🏾 I just saw your first video! You’re such a boss lady!

[@EliseChen]

aw thank you so much!!

[@kaynesr5563]

I'm going to be an oncology doctor in the future as my Mom died to a metastisized cancer and really felt bad for not being able to do anything for her, so This made me choose this as my specialty, any tips po?

[@pinkskies21]

how did you like working on this unit? i saw the job posting. ill be a new grad in august.

[@funyuns5822]

Hi! How do you manage studying for DNP and your job as a nurse?

[@JHZW06]

Great video, quick helpful and straight to the point. Amazing!!

[@liveyourlife243]

Love love your videos. Been binging. Btw I don’t think you need to blur your work place. We can tell where you work based in the school in New York you went to! Just my two cents.

[@naturallyhealingrelaxation4970]

Im a Unit Secretary at a hospital and I work in the Oncology Department, im also a cna so I assist the oncology nurses and techs in my spare time, I see on a daily basis how important nurses are and how they help to keep very sick patients alive, and how they comfort them :) Thank you Nurses!

[@goat8614]

Let’s gooo! I volunteer there at NYP! Hope to see you around 😄

[@AryLea2208]

Thank you for your service 🙏 god bless you

[@yael5586]

i actually have a opportunity on an onc unit so i wanted to see everyone’s routine. i was so shocked to see you wearing the uniform of the same hospital i’m going to be working at!! 😳

I’m a new grad starting in Oncology soon. Do you have any advise you can give? I’m very nervous about it.

[@nikkisaruul9496]

How was it? I'm looking into oncology as a new grad.

[@wishingoncupcakes18]

I was wondering where you got your scrub top from, Elise? :3 I loved this DITL video!

[@rabiazafaar]

i love ur vlogs i wish to see moreeee

[@jocelynramos8261]

Wow!! I’ve been an inpatient oncology nurse for two years now. I started at the beginning of COVID. I am VERY surprised you never learned how to do IV insertion. Did you do a ADN program? Friendly tip, if you are attempting a IV in the wrist/forearm place the tourniquet below the elbow not above.

[@maggedmagged1]

What backpack do you use?

[@milkytea88]

This is such a great video! I'm surprised your bf allowed you to practice your IV skills on him 😱

[@angelagreene9438]

How do we get your HESI notes

Props to your bf for being a test dummy, 🤣 mine wouldn't do that kind of thing lol

[@Scott-ff2oe]

Thanks.

[@thepriceiswrong9527]

Is it outpatient or inpatient?

[@EliseChen]

inpatient!

[@rae7269]

What are some good books for new oncology nurses?

[@lindseychoi]

Do you work in inpatient or outpatient clinic? Could you share your salary as a new grad nurse?

[@droolalot5795]

God bless nurses!! I'd be sick all of the time if nurses were hawt as you
