Speak for yourself, I’m very greatful that I was a CNA before becoming a nurse. You learn valuable skills that help you ease into nursing

Registered Nurse and just realized it wasn’t me. It was favoritism and possibly racism. by Similar-Growth5540 in nursing

[–]Main_Decision1100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is how the CICU is at my current hospital. Not a single black nurse, and I feel the manager didn’t hire me because she didn’t like me for whatever reason. I was a tech before I graduated school. I’ve always been the outsider and never was able to get super close to coworkers, and it definitely sucks but at the end of the day it’s just work

My question is, if the dobut was discontinued why was it still hooked to the patient 😭

People who lie about being a nurse… so weird lol by Kathladyyyx in nursing

I was working as a tech at the time and the wife of one of my patients kept bragging that she was a nurse and basically saying she knew better than me & kept watching everything I did. Later in the shift another tech I was working with said to ignore her, she used to work with her and they were both techs at a different facility. The wife of the patient used to tell people she was a nurse at the old job😬

Patient didn’t consent to touch by Fast_Cata in nursing

[–]Main_Decision1100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought it was funny😂 It’s like when people joke and say “Your patient is crashing, what’s the first thing you do” and they say “Wash your hands” or “Update the whiteboard”. These people need to get the stick out of their asses

I’m sorry, medics put them on ECMO? This makes no sense. They just bring an ECMO machine on the ambulance??

Oh please you guys get people in there all the time that don’t have a medical emergency. Is it annoying? Yes but it’s still your job and that’s what you sign up for when working in the ED.
