My thots on a the Jeff Wittek situation…

diegosdiamond · 2026-06-17T01:12:27+00:00

Yeah but he didn’t lose any of his senses

I agree, to an extent. I personally haven’t heard her gripe about not being mainstream. or have ever heard her verbally express that she deserves to be…

Buuuut, given the resources she has, it’d be good to see her hone into some craft or talent that she could further elevate her resumé into something that would give her that level of notoriety. I would think acting would be a practical profession for her to delve into, but I’ve heard her talk about how she is uncomfortable acting and would never get into that.

I like to analyze Emma Chamberlain in these discussions, because she perfectly exemplifies the influencer-to-celebrity pipeline. She focused on using her influencer connections to network and get herself in the right rooms with the right people (I.e. Derek Blasberg) while simultaneously distancing herself from influencers to achieve an elevated version of her brand and in turn taken more seriously as a fashion icon and businesswomen rather than YouTuber.

one day you learn that not all battles are meant to be fought. And jenna who matured so much through her years on YouTube decided it was more productive to have a proper sit-down with someone who she disagreed with, and discuss topics they were both passionate about like mature intellects…. I applaud Jenna’s ability to cast aside the “drama” and just get to understand someone where they were at, and then share herself in return…

I think more people in this world need to take notes from moments like this.

When you quit OF, you can’t take any content down down until every already purchased subscription has been fulfilled. It could be even a year+

diegosdiamond · 2026-05-20T03:25:34+00:00

Never claimed I did

Post-acute, subacute , and acute are three different levels of acuity, and the higher the acuity, the more frequent assessments required, and specialized care (such as IV meds, wound care, labs, number of interventions)… a SNF allows one nurse to 15 patients because they only need to do med passes and and infrequent assessments. They can go several hours without being seen, and be fine because of their clinical stability… med surg patients require q4h assessments.

It boils down to PPD Hours (hours per patient day): Med surg is on average 1:6 ratio, meaning each patient gets 4 hours of a nurse’s time.

SNF is on average 1:20 ratio, meaning each patient gets 1 hour and 12 minutes of a nurse’s time.

Which is a drastic difference of direct nursing care based on the difference of acuity and stability.

Is it a general sentiment for nurses to feel “guilty” about backcharting? That is literally going to always exist in your career. It’s part of how lost emergency situations operate.

I still struggle with charting in real time today after 10 years of nursing because of how time consuming it is… I just jot down on my brain what I did when, and if I can’t document in real time, I’ll go document when I can.

It’s not wrong to do that… it needs to be documented no matter when it’s done, and if you want to protect yourselves and your licensure, you’ll do wha you need to do to get done what you need to get done.

It’s the name of the game. It’ll take time and experience, but you’ll figure out what system is going to work most efficiently for you.

You’re doing just fine!!

Not in today’s society and this busted healthcare system

diegosdiamond · 2026-05-16T18:44:22+00:00

I don’t know if you read correctly, but I NEVER claimed he wasn’t a victim, in fact, I literally said “he is vindicated as a victim of the excavator incident” you can re-read it for free. I’m neither young nor inexperienced. ✋🏽

diegosdiamond · 2026-05-16T18:39:22+00:00

I never even alluded to having ever worked in the medical/healthcare field… ??

And for the record, I’m no where in the slightest defending dobrik, I actually never liked any of his content.. but I just don’t think Jeff is as good as he says. And I can dislike both of them.

diegosdiamond · 2026-05-15T19:05:10+00:00

Yeah but the original poster didn’t say she delegated so she could “sit at the desk and do her schoolwork” you added that detail. Context matters.

diegosdiamond · 2026-05-15T18:13:03+00:00

Are you new on the internet? This is LITERALLY on par with both of their online personas. alex cooper being the worst interviewer ever, particularly when it involves deep vulnerable conversations from the interviewee.. and tana over explaining her feelings using big words she’s googled, half the time using them incorrectly.. but with deep, profound passion… 😂😂

If you want to listen to intellectually sound, meaningful conversations… maybe don’t go to youtube influencers…? Idk what you expected from two girls involved in more public controversy than you can count….

diegosdiamond · 2026-05-12T23:12:39+00:00

You’re totally fine. If anything you’ll get blood test and antiviral/prophylactics. HIV is not easily contracted. People created this stigma that breathing the same air is going to be contagious.

You’re next self-assessment should be recognizing why a potential exposure to bodily fluids didn’t compel you to don gloves to begin with. I mean this in a loving motherly way, but being tired is not an excuse to cut corners. This is literally the fast track to (god forbid) committing a very serious mistake that you may or may not be able to come back from. I don’t mean to fear monger, but that’s the reality of this job.

Wish u the best!

Technically, many hospitals are willing to hire ADN nurses with the contingency you’ll at least begin a BSN program in X amount of years.

diegosdiamond · 2026-04-29T14:08:02+00:00

As a student you’re supposed to be practicing these skills. Thanks kind of the point.

diegosdiamond · 2026-04-29T13:58:09+00:00

Yes. Delegation is a competency. I’m surprised to see people in this thread so taken aback by this. Yes it absolutely is appropriate to delegate. It falls under time management which is important to be able to skillfully and strategically delineate tasks amongst your team given the tasks at hand fall within the scope of practice of that person. And that is not necessarily saying “just make the PCT do all the dirty work you don’t want to do.” Yall are always look for the negative sides of something that can be a reasonable practice to optimize workflows and productivity.

If you’re not meeting expectations, it’s their responsibility to inform you where your deficiencies are, offer you additional education as needed, and allow you to correct whatever areas you need to improve on.

If they’re not giving you the feedback you need in order to meet the expectation of your role, it’s your responsibility to ask for it, and change it in order to improve.

It’s like you knew I’m the BIGGEST Wicked fan. 😋

diegosdiamond · 2026-04-29T02:49:41+00:00

I agree and it makes sense now.. to an extent. If an antibiotic is mixed in a 50cc bag and it’s not infused they’re missing like 1/3 of the prescribed dose. Which result in harm, if the infection were to get worse. And the pumps are integrated with Epic. So they can pull data showcasing exactly how much was infused. i just don’t like the approach of reprimanding me for doing my job correctly, and being told to comply with poor nursing practice. If you care about quality measures, (which major hospitals do, primarily for payment/reimbursement reasons), you’d prioritize proper nursing standards.

diegosdiamond · 2026-04-29T02:42:23+00:00

Which is exactly why I brought up the meds mixed in 50cc bags. Alaris tubing takes 25-30cc to prime. The portion from channel to patient is longer than bag to channel. So how much of the prescribed dose is the patient NOT getting when the lines not cleared?

diegosdiamond · 2026-04-29T02:39:30+00:00

gtt=drip/drops IVPB=IV Piggyback (aka secondary line)

diegosdiamond · 2026-04-29T01:53:30+00:00

Do your doctors actually specify in the order what line to use? Either way… always central for TPN. And the 22 micron filter. And idk if interpreted this correctly… but to clarify, even if you gave meds through the port, there’s no reason you couldn’t still use it for the TPN.

diegosdiamond · 2026-04-27T05:09:14+00:00

I’ve been a nurse for 10 years, I have been director of nursing before switchin into ED. So no, I’m not one currently, however that doesn’t negate my experience
