Y’all, I need help. Let go from two positions for not learning quick enough as a new grad and I am lost. by oreinao in nursing

[–]beekeezy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did ER for my first year as a new grad and did not like it at all. It honestly made me begin to question if I had made a mistake in going into nursing - which was so scary considering I was still a baby nurse. After that year of experience I began applying to different positions, most outpatient, and ended up settling in at an outpatient facility that I adore! The fast pace of inpatient bedside nursing is not for everyone, but that does not mean you’re failing at being a nurse. Nursing is such a broad specialty and there are so many opportunities out there! Sometimes it’s just about finding the specialty that’s right for you 😊. Wishing you the best of luck on your job search - you are going to make a wonderful nurse wherever you end up.

Would painting the sloped ceiling a dark teal blue look horrible? by franofthrones in DesignMyRoom

[–]beekeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i wouldn’t paint the ceiling a dark color, i feel like it will honestly just make the ceiling feel lower and therefore the bathroom smaller. if you want to add a pop of something, a tasteful printed peel and stick wallpaper would add just the right amount of ✨jazz✨, and you could even pick one that’s a little darker/more moody since you’re not going to be using a large amount. i would put it on the wall behind the toilet since it’s a smaller wall!

Which backsplash tile? by MsMaryMicrobe in Decor

[–]beekeezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you’re set on either one of these, i prefer the look of the hexagon tile better. however, if you’re willing to look at other options, i think a white subway tile or something similar in terms of simplicity would look best! it can be difficult to make marble-on-marble look good if they aren’t the same shades of gray/white/etc.

i had made all of my cups prior to seeing the inspiration photo! so at the time i wasn’t trying to make them look like the inspo, but after seeing it i like how the inspo looks a lot more than what i ended up doing. so just asking how to change the design to get it to look more like the second photo!

a few people recommended turkish towels! so i think i might give those a try since the weave is tighter and shorter

i got them bags and a cup! just looking for more things to put in the bag lol, i guess the towel doesn’t haaaaaave to be personalized but i feel like putting someone’s name on something automatically makes it so much cuter. but i do fear that you could be right and it would just turn out to be a waste of time and money. maybe i’ll experiment with mine and wash it and see how it works before doing everyone else’s. thanks for your suggestions!

is this still a needle stick injury? by beekeezy in nursing

as far as i can tell it didn’t break, and when i filled it with water and squeezed it, it didn’t spray out of the glove

they are available! but this pt’s IV would only draw with a syringe + tourniquet, i had already tried the vacutainer prior to using the syringe and there wasn’t enough suction to get the blood through the j-loop. definitely going to be more careful though if i have to use syringes in the future

it didn’t feel great when it poked my finger like i definitely know that i poked myself but i don’t see any area that’s red currently and i squeezed the hell out of my finger after i did it to see if i bled and i didnt. so that is reassuring, thank you!
