Residency | Geriatrics Rotation

[@rifahkhan6317]

Jenny you seems to be trying to stop your tears. during the whole video..... working with geriatrics and terminal patients is difficult and emotionally draining.... but it only shows how committed and involved you are in your profession....

[@Linn85]

It sure is.. I have been working in geriatrics and even went further after nursing into geriatrics and love it. But it can be very, very hard, but also very rewarding! :)

[@utubeloverfan]

I think you are doing a great job juggling everything Jenny- being a mom, a doctor, and still uploading videos on youTube shows how dedicated you are. We can't all be 100% all the time :)

[@drjennale]

+utubeloverfan Thank you. And that's a good way to look at it. Can't be 100 all the time 👩🏻‍⚕️👍🏼

Wyatt is so adorable. I found geriatrics the hardest of rotations. its important to remember everyone gauges quality of life differently and great planning and communication is very important to gauge that. I've got it coming up next year too!

[@takekoj7191]

Not where you're supposed to be? Girl you bust your butt! You're a doctor and a mom and a wife! That is so much! You're a beautiful caring and intelligent woman and I hope you get out of this funk soon (:

Hey Jenny! I think what you said at the start of the video hit... really home for me. I think that so often in our medical career, we are always comparing ourselves. Comparing to other students, to our upperclassman, to our seniors and attendings. And sometimes we just feel inadequate. But just like you said, it is truly stepping back and realizing how much you have accomplished, and that you are doing AMAZING things. And I think what's wonderful about being in medicine, is that we never stop learning. So instead of feeling like, "I don't feel like I know enough", change it to "I can't wait to keep learning more!" Positive thinking on this Sunday night~ And happy 3 months for Wyatt

I am a brand new NP, and although the training is much different than MD/DO, I am still struggling immensely with my confidence, and feeling out of my element. I know that with time, it will feel more like second nature to the both of us. You are doing great!

[@drjennale]

+Heather Reynolds you too! One day at a time 🤓

[@heatherreynolds247]

Thank you! Yep, that's my mantra :)

[@rifahkhan6317]

i have been through it a lot.... but only thing that works is to keep pushing.... give yourself a break whenever you feel like but after that don't let yourself down... just keep working....

[@juliejealousy]

I have an anxiety disorder and due to its severity and what it limits me from doing, I do take medication. However, I totally agree with you that combination therapy is the most effective. The research certainly says so, and I've been in counseling for 4 years! I'll have to check out that book.. thanks for this! Also your lil beeb is so handsome!! ☺️

[@logictd567]

Hi. I wish you all the luck and send good vibes your way. The first year as a new parent is trying. Hang in there guys!

[@liivelaughlove10]

i'm in an accelerated nursing program right now and boy do i feel like that every day in clinical! love your videos

[@jessicaelizabeth2013]

I love you for your intro! You don't know how badly I needed that, I've been putting off finishing my secondaries for like a week now, feeling terrible about it, questioning if I even have the willpower to go into medicine... you just snapped me back into reality! Thank you :)

[@averymoore9607]

Hi Jenny! I'm a current pre-med student, and I watch your videos all the time. I just wanted to say thank you for all the hard work you do- your videos, information, and encouraging words really, really do make a difference! I just started volunteering at a hospice care center a little while ago, and while rewarding, it's definitely difficult. It's nice to hear your perspective on it all. Best of luck, and know that people are rooting for you! You're an amazing role model, and you can do it :)

[@drjennale]

+Avery Moore Makes my day brighter when I read your sweet comments. Thank you ❤️

[@victoriaclaire4273]

Jenny, I hope you get out of that funk soon because you're amazing! You are a wife, mother, and medical resident. Just having one of those things on your plate is a lot of responsibility. Having 2 of those responsibilities would probably make some people crack up. But you have all 3 and somehow find a way to balance it all with grace. I know I don't know your whole life, but from what I see you are an amazing mommy to Wyatt, a great wife to Stan, and an awesome medical resident. I hope you have a great day, Jenny cause you deserve it!

[@montezsoliz]

Great videos. I enjoy everything you say and watching you succeed is amazing and yes as 16 i do feel that way sometimes like your not goos enough but then i think to myself why am i letting myself down when i should be bringing myself up so i have learned to just keep my head up and never give up

[@doc_Q_]

The variety in Care of the elderly is unmatched. I'll be making a video about it soon as well 🙌🏾

[@mariadelpilarrodriguez7779]

You're awesome Jenny. Keep up the good job

[@Centnl287NAve]

When I was a tennis teacher there were moments when I felt like I wasn't good enough to teach, and it did give me some anxiety. Anyways, more people than you know have had the same feeling.

[@DrMursiMD]

Love your spiel! I know exactly how that feels!

[@Linn85]

I am all for using other things than meds for depression and anxiety. Meds are often the "easy" way out. People need to talk, they need to be surrounded by a environment that are good for people, and as you say, giving people tolls. Meds can be great as well, but I think it should be given in combination with everything else :)

[@drjennale]

+Linn yes you get me 🤓

[@Thegreatest-co9re]

how you feel right now is how I feel about starting premed :/ I feel like i won't be good enough :( I always have my up and downs with my self

[@IramAlam94]

[@user-lu6yg3vk9z]

I think you might have confidence problems. This is normal when you start something new.

[@drjennale]

+Filmon Tewolde Definitely an issue but it will get better with time 🤓

[@user-lu6yg3vk9z]

Jenny Le It will. Don't bring yourself down if you make mistake. It is normal when you start off you just started building your work experience.

[@misswinnie4.8]

you could be a double for the beautiful Michelle Kwan. you are lovely jenny.
