As a physician I really appreciate when nurses give me thorough and relevant information and a recommendation after; especially when they deliver it with confidence. Even if I do end up not agreeing (and I usually explain why) it still makes me feel I can trust the nurse because he/she put some thought into the patient case and know their patient well. Sometimes I am covering 60 patients I do not know well and I depend on nurses to be my eyes and ears. I have worked with some incredible nurses who are on top of their game and I can tell you they are a GOD send.

This is so great!! I'm a seasoned nurse refreshing and the video has reminded me of so much. At the end of or shift, we can't blame the last shift, we've had 12 hours. Both shifts are most of the time doing their best for that patient and their families. Sometimes we forget but the report guide and this whole video was wonderful! New nurses don't forget you should make studying your charts and set your day up. This Lady is on point. Loved it! You're nurse report was very thorough!❤ # nursesdontalwayseattheiryoung #wealsobackupthosewefindwithpurposeandcalling #wewillifnecessarytoprotectourpatientsandthatsnotagedefined

Great advice Sarah. I think patients need the same kind of advice as well. As you know, I'm not going to nursing school, but I've been a patient for a very long time now, lol. Whether at the doctors office or in the hospital, when a lot of us meet him or her, white coat syndrome" kicks in. Many doctors are a little bossy, they don't really listen to what we're saying. This often results in a mis-diagnosis. We as patients tend to back off and not speak our mind. I always try to bring a written list of questions with me, otherwise I usually miss asking something. I look at it as hey, you're working for me, lol. I find that women doctors tend to listen more and are more compassionate. Thank God for the nurses, I never have an issue with how they treat me, always top notch. Thanks for the video Sarah!

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Hello Tony :) Thank you for this comment. Yes, I agree and I've seen "white coat syndrome" a lot. Communication is so very important between both the patient and doctor so the patient's needs are met. Many patients have told me the same thing in that it is easier to talk with the nurse rather than the doctor, and a lot of patients I've had say they find it easier to communicate with the NP or a female physician too....very interesting. Thanks again for the comment!

[@geraldgaya6671]

Great advise. I will be practicing nursing soon and I am watching your videos as a refresher. Thank you.

[@michaelbernard3086]

Filipino nurses supports your videos. Thank you.

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Aww, thank you so much! I love you all, and I'm very honored to help out!

[@Pagingnursejackie]

Thank you for this. I started my orientation and had to email the doctor and I was nervous because I didn’t want to come off sounding dumb!

[@EmilyGreys]

Wow thanks for this. Perfect timing, my first day of nursing school is Thursday. I always watch your videos because you’re super helpful!

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Yay! I love when that happens. Best wishes to you tomorrow. I hope all goes well :)

[@EmilyGreys]

[@michelleatmassagestudentpr6298]

This is great, even for massage therapists! These concepts apply really well to massage therapists talking to chiros, physiotherapists, etc. Thanks!

Relationships building should be two way. Make a vedio on how doctors should communicate with Nurses

[@destynicannon6587]

[@josecantu9997]

Does anyone here have a recommendation on how to make sure the Physician orders are being transcribed to the EMAR and not missed? Double checks are being done but some are still being missed.

[@19Kaori93]

Great video! And yes a smile goes a long way! 😄

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Indeed it does :) Thank you for the comment and for watching the video.

[@jaybaby4490]

Hi ma’am my name is Jessica Sims i have Ulcerative Colitis and I was treated for Crohn’s disease a few years ago the doctors said it was Ulcerative Colitis. I was extremely sick I had a Cardiac Arrest and a Stroke I was pronounced dead during my ileostomy surgery. I was paralyzed after and went into a coma. I was hospitalized for a year. I’m alive today and would love to meet you! I love your videos.

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Hello Jessica :) Thank you so much for sharing your experience with both Crohn's and UC....wow, you've been through a lot! I hope you are doing better now. Thank you so much for watching the videos. I'm so happy you like them!

[@TheSkg2011]

Thanks for the video. I am a new grad nurse and starting a job in couple of weeks. English is my second language that makes so nervous about how I would communicate with physicians. I am watching your video several times a day and feeling better every time I watch it. Do you have any other suggestions for me to practice ? I do have a foreign (Asian) accent.

[@normatorresortiz7771]

HI! I have the same situation. English is my 2nd language. How are you now in your job after one year!

[@redmoon9650]

Very helpful video, I haven’t had to call anyone during clinical yet but I will have to this semester and I’m terrified, I’m always Alba’s about speaking to people over the phone anyway but talking to a doctor seems especially scary, I always hear about how doctors can be really rude sometimes and may run over the nurses. What about when calling a pharmacy? What questions would you ask and how would you start off the conversation?

[@faustob8738]

sarah channel is awesome 👊😛

[@jojoyce7605]

I just got.hired you video helped me boost my confidence

[@jasonzhao9641]

Also do you have videos on blunt force injuries:Contusion, hematoma, abrasion, laceration, and fracture. Also do u have videos on incised stab puncture and chopping wounds and the differences between these wounds also gunshot wounds and the differences between certain gunshot wounds penotrating vs peroforating, entrance wound and exit wounds and also the ranges of the wound contact intermediate and indeterminant. Also lastly do you have videos on the different types of necrosis: coagulative, liquifactive, caseous, and fat, gangrenous, somatic death and rigor, algor , Livor mortis different types of gangrene dry wet and gas? This was all in my patho class and I didnt any videos for these topics

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Hello Jason :) I hope to cover these topics over time. Here are all of my NCLEX lectures organized in one playlist so you can browse and select which videos you would like to watch: kzbin.info/aero/PLQrdx7rRsKfWwTsEG3KPPQx9rWa8AqMIk I hope that helps!

[@vivianatamayo6527]

Great video!!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 thank you so much for these tips!

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Thank you so much, Viviana! I'm so glad you liked the tips. Thank you for the comment.

[@lianliu7042]

I hope you can continue to make the video

[@beautydiva110]

THANKS! Can you please do a video on SBAR? Is there a simple report chart that nursing students can use on their patient for the day?

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Thank you for the video suggestion. Yes, I will add this to my future videos. Great suggestion :)

[@beautydiva110]

Thanks so much! I've noticed that I have trouble extracting the important details of a patient from the not so important ones, and tend to over explain myself, if you know what I mean. I just want to be able to give my professors' and doctors' a concise report on the patient.

[@brittnygrey612]

Thank you some much

[@MsBrittneyJ1]

Great video! Have you ever had a situation where you noticed a doctor gave an incorrect order, you bought it to their attention and they told you to go ahead w/it anyway? If so, what did you do? And if not, how would you handle a situation like that?

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Great question, Brittney! When this happens and you still feel in your gut it is wrong or you know it is wrong, this is when you must involve your shift leader or nurse manager....or whoever is in charge of your unit and ask them how you should proceed. They will guide you in how you should handle the situation. Remember you're not alone on your unit and you have resources to help you.

[@MsBrittneyJ1]

RegisteredNurseRN thank you for the reply! I’m an aspiring nursing student so I always like to ask more experienced nurses questions

[@shanayah1161]

are you a nurse now?

[@thandie67]

I agree with you on some shifty moody doctors or colleagues so long as they don't make it personal.

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Yes, most definitely! Thank you for the comment and for watching the video.

[@juanje99]

I love you. Thank you.

[@lianliu7042]

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Hello Vanessa, I do have a video on beta blockers and I talk about beta receptors. You can view it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eH-7k2Owg9SqeNU In addition check the notes and scroll down and read the section on beta receptors. I talk about their location and function: www.registerednursern.com/nclex-pharmacology-practice-question-nclex-question-of-the-week/ Also, you may want to check out my video on the sympathetic vs. parasympathetic nervous because I talk about neurotransmitters (norepinephrine etc) and their receptors: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqPIpnh7rK2qg9U I hope that helps!

[@emelynvasquez1794]

Hi Emilyn nurse student from Philippines

[@MommyUvOne]

If it’s such a burden on you for me to call you so you can DO your JOB, maybe retire and move on. Nobody wants to deal with that as a new nurse or otherwise. I can’t believe we as healthcare professionals can’t report such behavior. Almost as though it’s coddled.

[@labellekat321]

😩😩😩

[@glenvillanueva6950]

Some physicians will tell you "Do not tell me how to do my job!". So... do not diagnose or make recommendations.

[@ehh2681]

I hate when a physician has that really bummed out attitude. Almost like they don’t even want to be there. Listen not that I would promote showing disrespect towards anyone, however I absolutely do NOT bite my tongue. First things first, let’s get this straight bud, you ARENT my employer 😂
