I’m currently in my first year of nursing school and I’m definitely leaning into ER nursing to start my career when I graduate. Especially since I was an EMT who also worked in transport before nursing school. Appreciate the video! Getting paid to ride helicopters sounds like a cool gig that can never get old. Can’t wait to experience it soon

[@aysiajanee]

Yes!! As an EMT this sounds right up your lane! Hope your first year is going good! 💛

[@panju2030]

First of all ,it's great that you give response to each and every comment,hats off 👏 I am a first year nursing student from India.

[@aysiajanee]

I did flight nursing for 2 years,before that did ER for 3 summers and extensive ER experience throughout the years. Did travel nursing during COVID and last assignment was a cardiac ICU.

[@aysiajanee]

twinsies! kinda haha. I'm sure you have some storieessss from the travel during Covid!

[@vrclanosrs6097]

I’m starting nursing school this fall. I have a back ground as an Emt, Wemt, and ski patroller. I’m really excited. I know I need relevant clinical experience in intensive care, that said I’m hoping to fast track my way into flights. Thank you for sharing this video, it was concise and very informative. You have a great personality, I hope that my colleagues will be as cheerful as you. Take care. God bless.

[@aysiajanee]

You are so sweet! Sounds like you are well on your way!! Goodluck!!

I am a new nurse, LPN, working on a Neuroscience med/surg unit. Definitely a difficult patient population and not a job I love. I fell into that "you should start on medsurg" trap too but as an new LPN it is hard to get pediatric positions or ICU positions. I am in school to get my RN to pursue Peds, NICU, PICU, or anything that will get my to my dream job of flight nursing! this video was so helpful and honestly gave me more hope!

[@aysiajanee]

aww I'm so glad you felt that way!! Yes definitely hard to get into peds. I applied for 6 months right after passing my boards and didn't hear anything and that made me go the medsurg route. Keep at it you'll get to your dream job!

[@charlynestyles]

I aspire to be like you so much, this is sooo inspiring sister. A totally not an easy job so much respect 🤍🤍🤍💯

[@aysiajanee]

@@charlynestyles totally missed this. you’re the sweetest!! thanks you so much!! 😭😭💕

[@naana-scelyne6370]

I agree with you on the travel nurse experience! After 14 years as an imc and local travel RN i can’t stress that enough

[@aysiajanee]

YES! it's so important because you just don't know what you're going to see on these contracts!

[@thenurselife242]

Heyy, Im also a nurse YTber, love the way you did the video and your job sounds very cool.

[@aysiajanee]

aww thank you so much!!

[@onelilangel92]

I did a year and a half in spinal cord injury, almost a year in neuroscience, and now I’ve been in the ED for a year and a half with a desire to do flight nursing!

[@aysiajanee]

spinal cord injury is so specific! neuroscience! You must be so smart haha. ED is my all time favorite has my heart. You're on the right path for experience!!

[@jennifernajera19]

Could you please share what the minimum height requirement is to become a flight nurse? Thank you!

[@angeladawn1473]

Really wanna know your dream hospital? I’m working in the ED on the east coast as well. new grad residency, just certified In TNCC. Really want flight nurse like you! Your videos are awesome. Thank you

[@aysiajanee]

Honestly I’m not sure if I have a “dream” one anymore. I’ve been to all the TOP children’s hospital & they’re amazing! And you can do it!! You’re doing the right steps!

[@kristenlee3890]

Currently in school hoping to become a flight nurse soon 😍😍

[@aysiajanee]

@@kristenlee3890 you can do it!!

[@er.302]

Hey would you please tell that does height matters in travel nursing? I'm 5.1" , also is travel nursing & flight nursing the same?

[@aysiajanee]

I'm 5'0 and it wasn't a problem! But I was contracted through a hospital specifically and not like a fleet, so that would be something to ask the specific job. Also no, flight nursing is a nurse that does air transports and travel nursing is a nurse that takes contracts in different states/ hospitals through an agency. If you google it should help :)

[@JayasONS]

Can I become flight nurse after gnm complete

[@aysiajanee]

sorry not sure what gnm. is??
