This is spot on. My favorite ER I ever worked at was a pediatric ER as a travel nurse. Kids are the best ☺️

[@TheNurseNook]

They really are!

I’m going into my 4th semester of nursing school and I’m taking peds this semester!! Love your channel

[@TheNurseNook]

Good luck!! Thanks for watching

[@matchmadeinmedicine3727]

*knock on wood* have never had a fracture before, but can only image how many kiddos come in from an accident - kids are so strong though, you work with a tough group of patients :)

[@foraslan4230]

When I was 12 I got appendicitis and there were so many complications that I spent a week in the hospital and it took 3 months before I got it out. Then my friend got appendicitis a few months later and it only took him 3 days to get it out and I was so jealous... But honestly that experience was what inspired me to go into nursing so in the end I'm grateful

[@TheNurseNook]

glad you're in good health now and joining the nursing family!

[@matthewgamboa3177]

awesome! Im doing my preceptorship in Pedss ER unit and I needed common diagnoses to review!

[@getglamedwgen]

I’m on my last semester of Nursing school in Houston! 💕 love your videos

[@yakeelyn]

You touched on alot of important things seen in Peds ER. Croups are the worse 😣😩😫😵. I had it often when I was little (glad I grew out of it) & whatever our family doctor had my parents doing worked! I have empathy for kids that get it. We see various ages but mostly teen - adult unless Labor & Delivery or Pediatric patient having a Fracture or high fever.. Currently they have everyone in the ER reviewing Stemi Algorithms... This was very helpful w/insight... ☺️👍👍👍So glad you enjoy being with Peds aside from Adults... Please continue to do videos like these.

[@MrWavecap]

Your videos are never boring😁♥️

[@jasminreyes6183]

Thank you so much for this video 🙌🏽

[@marishkadoyley1611]

You should do more videos like this very informative and educational. 🤗 keep doing these videos

[@katebonham8031]

I love this video :) I have 2 semesters left for my BSN and currently work as a cardiac LPN. I still have no idea what I want to do with my BSN, though I loved my Peds rotation. It's helpful to see your real life experiences and take on your role :)

[@julianacheriza9673]

What do you do as a cardiac Lpn?!?

[@deboracampana2024]

Well done, you speak like a doctor 👏🏻👏🏻 so much knowledge

[@introverted2017]

I wanna be a pediatric nurse too! I'm 13 and people thinks its wierd that I take pediatrics seriously. I'm sure you'll be a good nurse.

[@TheNurseNook]

@@introverted2017 thank you that means a lot to me

[@mame9746]

@@TheNurseNook no problem thank you

[@nybands]

Introverted i’m 13 also , at first i really wanted to be a peds nurse lol , until i thought about seeing all these sick kids 🥺. it’s more than just checkups , and hiccups and stuff .. more diseases , broken bones ; so i decided i’ll just be a NP , good money .. and when i see my patient i won’t be as sad cause i know they are adults and they are responsible

[@jasminegriffin2712]

The Nurse Nook you’re welcome

[@soulsista1088]

Great video! How do you get small children to keep still for a straight catheter insertion?

[@TheNurseNook]

You don’t, most of the time you have to have a holder lol

[@MelloneeKecia]

Definitely was waiting to watch this video

[@kungfuken432]

Picc line malfunctions, feeding tube malfunctions, uri, well child checks

[@taylorrosenbloom4078]

Love that you said monkey bars hahahah broke my tibia at 4 falling off those bad boys, didnt cry and tried to stand up but couldnt heheh. and about 3 weeks into wearing my cast, the docs had to re-break it cus it was healing wrong

[@OlisaPrice-qq1wm]

How often do you see kids with the FLU virus in pediatric ER & how often do you see kids with a broken arm or a broken leg and how often do you see kid's with RSV in pediatric ER?

[@angeladenmark3164]

I can't imagine working in Pediatric ER!!! Working with a Child as of result of Child Abuse & Neglect. That is a calling from God!!

[@nurseperez2795]

Do you recommend working in a pediatric ED?

[@OlisaPrice-qq1wm]

How was it for your 1st day of pediatric ER)

[@alicjarojas7736]

Alexis, do you know if there is any shortage of nurses in your area? I graduated in May with my BSN and can’t find a job in NY... Now I’m looking to relocate 😩

[@Soooome2344]

me tooo im having such a hard time. Upstate Ny is hiring new grads no contract but only paying $24 an hr.

[@alicjarojas7736]

Flower Child oh man that’s crazy 😩 I’m Westchester County and they pay really well here ($38+) but it’s so difficult to find a job...

I'm currently in middle school. But when I was around 8 or 9 years old, I dropped my moms laptop on my foot. I did end up breaking my toe pinkie finger, but at least the laptop was fine.

[@theacevedofamily3483]

I Think i seen you walking in at the med center last week. i was like is the nurse nook.. lol

[@karendelgado274]

its the nasal washhhhhhhh for me :D

[@morganveller2114]

Lol the one and only time I’ve been hospitalized was due to a fracture of my humerus from falling off the monkey bars when I was 4 😂

[@morganveller2114]

But I’m a cardiac ICU step down nurse, going on 2 years and even though we do very different types of nursing I love your channel! I’ve been watching you since I was in school 😊

[@mirandaalexis]

i feel like appendicitis is even more common in kids in my adult ER lol

[@bbycakes2427]

I think grouping RSV and flu in children is an inaccurate representation. Flu and RSV can both be viral, it would’ve been a better representation had you grouped RSV and bronchiolitis with each other.

Your videos are never boring😁♥️
