Night Routine as a Nurse: How I unwind from a shift and process my day

[@KiaraMadisen]

Hey guys, thanks for watching my post-shift routine! Don't forget to comment the question of the day: what you're grateful for & If anyone you love or care about has a birthday, think about Laifen Hairdryer....seriously my mom's fav gift she's ever received!

When kiara and Keegan post a video on the same day, it's a good start for the beginning of the week.

[@KiaraMadisen]

Oh yea 👏

[@mpoleshuk78]

Just curious, who is Keegan? Not that I need something else to watch, so I can procrastinate.

my sister is a leukemia survivor and the onc nurses were such a light expecially when we were stuck at the hospital during holidays

[@KiaraMadisen]

Your sis is awesome and that’s exactly why we do what we do 💓

[@tinglelingaling6]

I have a lot of health issues. It can be very depressing. One of the things I do is mail cards to friends and family. And I put in butterfly magnets, cute post its or pocket hugs. I also take some in when I have doctors appt and give them to reception, nurses, phlebotomist, doctors etc. I make myself feel better by giving someone a smile. Even if it is a tiny thing. It makes me feel better.

[@KiaraMadisen]

Aww I love this so so much! These are the little things that make us slow down in life and appreciate all the good. One of my resolutions this year was to send more cards and tell people I appreciate them and it has been so fun and meaningful to do so!

[@jennierobb9336]

Love this

I genuinely would love to hear what you have to say about what you do for a living and what you’ve experienced in words you feel best describing it. My dad had two different spans of his life where he fought cancer and recently the last three years were the hardest him and my family had to go through. This time around the age I’m at (23) I saw a lot more and also was there to hear all the information from any doctor he had. It was an incredibly hard time to go through and so heavy. He passed away this past December and it’s been the hardest time of my life, but being able to have understood from doctors who explained in the easiest of ways to tell my family and him what steps were going to be made anytime he had an appointment was the breath of fresh air through these years. Thank you for doing what you do. 💛 I can’t express what it means to have people like you in this world.

Attention, design lovers! LAIFEN progduct's aesthetic is pure love at first sight!

[@KB-gr9bi]

YES! I’m in nursing school and I journal after clinicals every week. I just want to remember, plus it helps get things off me 💕

[@tvd991]

I'm grateful for my entire family, but more specifically I'll mention my 4 nieces. I'm just obsessed with everything they do & they bring me so much joy. I'm also grateful to have a stable roof over my head & the fact that I know I can always go pick up a good book to read.

[@vicachekhovskiy]

It’s really valuable when nurses, doctors, and other medical professionals really care about their patients. Of course, it shouldn’t go beyond you in a way that will hurt you, but the fact that you really care already changes your approach and intentions toward patients. ❤️ I think they appreciate and benefit from that care more than you will ever know.

[@AbigailMelman]

I started watching your videos in October at the beginning of my Freshman year of Nursing school. Your videos are the absolute best motivation, keep inspiring others!!!

[@KiaraMadisen]

I'm so happy to hear this!! Hope school is going well for you!

[@oliviarose1313]

I am grateful for my friends & family, they are great and been having lots of fun.

[@thesharinganeyerocks]

KIARA I START NURSING SCHOOL IN JANUARY YOUR VIDEOS HAVE BEEN A HUGE INSPIRATION TO KEEP GOING AND TRYING TO GET INTO THEM

[@Delulugirrl]

I recently moved out of Oregon and now live in a big city. As much as I'm enjoying the hustle and bustle of the city I miss Portland so much!! You are one of the ways I get to still feel connected with Portland!! So thank you so much for posting and always motivating with their organization skills and how thoughtful you are with everything!! I am starting over again in my life and you have been such an inspiration! ❤❤ Only good wishes for you!! 🫶✨💕

[@readsandeats2263]

You are so grounded and the things you do to help yourself and others is so inspirational. Great idea about the journaling. Hope you have a good couple of days off before your next stretch. Gratitude - my parents, the joy of reading, a cosy bed

[@KiaraMadisen]

Thanks for describing what I work so hard to achieve ❤

[@readsandeats2263]

@KiaraMadisen you are welcome. You do a wonderful job which is very stressful and emotional. I know I would struggle to do what you do.

[@jordangreen611]

Yo June Blues is such a throwback on this channel! 🦆

[@KiaraMadisen]

YES!! A classic.

[@Princesskristin77]

Kiara you are an incredible nurse! I don’t know how you do it with Peds! My mom was just diagnosed with stage two breast cancer and is fighting it right now! You have a special gift!

[@MaziePizzolato]

Happy to see a new video pop up. Your positivity has helped me get through this tough time of my nana passing ❤

[@CamCity98]

[@lalaloveu4532]

[@Zonaishpirwani]

Dear Kiara , thank you so much for creating these entertaining videos for us, you don't know how much I love watching ur videos and how much of an inspiration you are to me

[@KiaraMadisen]

You are so welcome! Thank you so so much for watching 💕

[@noellechang4035]

Loved the video as always! Thankful for my supportive friends and family, good eats, and the fact that I got into my dream nursing program!! (p.s. thank you for your videos I kept thinking back to your nursing school acceptance video while I was anxiously waiting to hear back from my program - your positive attitude seriously got me through!)

[@Ryyyyyyan-tt4ph]

Shift work is tough! nights are always the hardest for me im still trying to find a good schedule/balance...❤

[@francesandrews5506]

Great vlog. Favourite song: your more than enough, Sarah reeves 😍

[@ailenmorgado4458]

Hi, Kiara. I started following you recently because I’m about to start my LPN program and I was looking for some nursing student videos in my city (PDX). I found you and I’ve been watching all your videos 😅 and just getting myself filled with all your joy and optimism during your journey in nursing. Literally you’re giving me so much hope and confidence about starting my own experience with school. My respect for you working with pediatric patients on the oncology department. As a HL survivor, I can tell you that I keep my best memories of the nurses that took care of me during that battle. I know that I’ll not be the right candidate for that position, just because I’ve so many feelings involved and I don’t feel capable of staying mentally stable. So much respect for nurses like you who work so hard and give the kids all the care and support they need. Have a nice week. ❤

[@Courtney-Alice-Gargani]

Keegan just bought a Condo. We are so happy for her.

[@KiaraMadisen]

I know I am seriously so happy and proud of her! Can't wait to see the place all decorated!

[@KiaraMadisen]

I hope you do! The summer and fall here is BEAUTIFUL!

[@WesleyCoughlan]

Awesome vlog as always, Kiara! Hope you have an amazing & awesome Memorial Day long weekend this weekend! Canadians like me had our long weekend last weekend, Victoria Day long weekend, that is! And it was just last Saturday my nephew Noah proposed to Victoria, his girlfriend of 4 years & she said yes! We had a little celebration at his parents' place in honor of their engagement! Wedding is scheduled for next year, my guessing in the summer! I noticed Keegan has uploaded her latest video & I'll watch it tomorrow as I'm tired after a long day today & must get to bed for some well deserved sleep! 😊❤
