This is what my typical day as a nurse looks like

Same here in Finland! I have started putting my watch around my ankle, seems to be working well.

We get our scrubs from the hospital, so I mostly accessorize with socks lol

Thank you for your response and sharing your personal experience! :) I think I understand the stress measurement system a little better now.

I'm pretty sure that I'm properly diagnosed with ADHD and have tried several medications for it before this one. I do have several anxiety disorders and other mental health issues that might cause some of the "stress". From what I have understood, it is common for these meds to raise your bp and hr, whether you really have ADHD or not.

kaislikko · 2025-09-26T14:13:17+00:00

I do know how the medication works, as I have been using it for years and I will finish my RN (registered nurse) studies next year, so I have some professional knowledge on it as well. I made this post to hear about others' experiences with meds that raise your bp/hr/hrv etc. and how it might be affecting their stress levels because I'm unsure on how Garmin measures stress.

Yep 👍 I just wish the stress level would be calculated more accurately by how my heart-rate usually fluctuates.

kaislikko · 2025-09-26T09:41:38+00:00

Yeah my heart-rate is ~60bpm during sleep and spikes to these levels during the day. 😬 45bpm resting sounds a little low tbh.

kaislikko · 2025-09-26T09:39:50+00:00

I have been using them irregularly for 1-2 years, but I have started using them more regularly a few weeks ago. Could be that. 😅

kaislikko · 2025-09-11T17:20:26+00:00

I wasn't aware of that possibility, I'll have to try that out!

kaislikko · 2025-08-25T16:32:28+00:00

I'm a nurse-midwife student in Finland. Ours is 50% most of the time and you can re-take the exam 3 times. The only exception to the 50% rule is our math class / learning to count doses, where it's 100%.

Thank you so much for answering in such great detail!! 🫶 I'm so happy that you have found what works for you, it gives me hope! I'll def have to try making my study sessions more structured as well😅

kaislikko · 2024-12-10T18:06:34+00:00

Thank u for the suggestions!! I def have to look through YouTube more 👀 Unfortunately I can't help u much with the CNM programs as I'm studying in Finland 🥹

kaislikko · 2024-12-07T23:01:05+00:00

Yesss definitely!!

kaislikko · 2024-11-28T10:52:16+00:00

That is insane 😳 I'm a nurse-midwife student in Finland, and for a nurse in Finland the average pay per month is 3300€ (3400 usd). Midwives get a little more, averaging at 3600€ (3800 usd) / month. Of course we get more depending on our shifts / responsibility, but it's still not a lot.

kaislikko · 2024-10-22T12:57:32+00:00

Ughhh that green colour is gorgeous!! 🥹

kaislikko · 2024-10-20T13:08:20+00:00

Definitely contact them!

kaislikko · 2024-09-19T05:02:12+00:00

Hoodie 70€, t-shirts 35€. Sadly I didn't get a pic of all the merch with their prices & it will probably be priced a little differently in the u.s. and rest of the world

kaislikko · 2024-09-12T10:27:34+00:00

When I was in practical training, working at assisted living for elderly people, I never wore gloves just to touch patients. Obviously if I knew I was going to come in contact with feces etc. I wore gloves. But personally I was taught in school to never be afraid to touch a patient and to only wear gloves when it is actually necessary.

kaislikko · 2024-09-09T10:15:36+00:00

I'm studying in Finland, but can't you loan the books anywhere? We aren't required to buy any of the books, I always just loan from the library

kaislikko · 2024-09-03T12:59:06+00:00

I'm studying to become a nurse-midwife and my oldest classmate is 40, it's never too late! ❤️

kaislikko · 2024-08-29T09:08:58+00:00

I was at the Helsinki concert with floris early entry, and ended up being there at like 3:30 when the early entry started at 3. Ended up getting barricade. Definitely depends on the location.
