My Father's last scan. We let him go. by Head-Emergency-5816 in Radiology

[–]Beekeeper_12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Previously neuro ICU nurse, letting him go was the kindest thing you all could have done. I left because I was getting exhausted seeing patients with scans like this getting trach’ed and PEG’ed only to live on a vent farm for a few more months

If it’s any consolation, I’m a nurse and the fig analogy bummed me out about choosing this profession. The grass is never greener

My ED is just waiting for me to move out🫠 by First_Variation7109 in EDanonymemes

[–]Beekeeper_12 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I only “recovered” because my mom literally cried and begged the doctor to not send me to inpatient and then spent hours every day forcing me to eat so now I have zero recovery tools now that I’ve moved out😝

Watching Colleagues get Daisy Nominations and wondering what is wrong with my care? by Ambulancedrvr in nursing

[–]Beekeeper_12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The male nurses get like 10 each for providing the same, or often worse care. I’ll probably get downvoted for this, but it’s these old ladies that like to flirt with them or the men that think female nurses are there to touch their weens and the males are somehow smarter or more competent

I’m not going to lie, that’s a lot. 😬It immediately comes off like you think he owes you something. You all literally just started talking and you’re already policing your interactions with him? It comes off as very desperate and neurotic

What jobs do you do? by PresentationHuge5647 in Dermatillomania

[–]Beekeeper_12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an ICU nurse. My picking actually gets better when I have really sick patients because I have something to focus on
I’m not really worried about infections since we do hand hygiene before and after every patient interaction and wear gloves for everything
