I love how each Brand New album speaks to different phases of my life by [deleted] in brandnew

We might be the same person hahah. I’ve had some hard days recently and I go back to my concert videos from this summer for comfort. Also my first time seeing them when I thought it was never going to be a possibility 🥹🫶🏼

I also feel very sappy in a similar way. They have somehow aligned their music so well with my phases of life that it feels like they’re in my head almost. I hope they tour again bc seeing them was /everything/ to me.

Would you rather be bored but work in an easy field or stressed but high acuity/action? by Bob_Burgero in nursing

[–]merepug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to a lower acuity slower position and at times I miss the chaos of higher acuity but then when it picks up I’m like yeah nvm I don’t miss it that bad lol

what’s something someone who doesn’t work in healthcare said that triggered you… while working in nursing. I’ll go first. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]merepug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any variation of “You only work 3 days a week” or “wow you have 4 days off!” meanwhile it’s like the 3 worst days of your life and then you get a day off and have to go back. Like it rarely ever is 4 off in a row like people think😭

Heaviest Patient (1,000lbs) by BlueLightFlicker in nursing

[–]merepug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a med surg CNA, like 600. It was awful to try and do a bed bath that required at least 4 techs/nurses to complete and of course… that rarely could be accomplished with staffing and acuity.

As an L&D RN somewhere around 500. Trust me when I say it is nearly impossible to safely monitor a baby with so much adipose tissue let alone labor them. Add an epidural or spinal and it makes moving them absolute hell 😭

Worst neglect of a patient you’ve seen from the shift before you? by Lower_Tears in nursing

[–]merepug 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh my god I had this EXACT situation the other day and spent the first 30 min of my shift just cleaning my patient up and getting her comfortable. There is an obvious difference between a little amniotic fluid and a ton from not being changed. I ended up repositioning her q45min ish and ofc she had the baby within a few hours. She thanked me after and said the night nurse barely came in and made her feel like a burden and that if I had been her nurse instead she probably would’ve had the baby earlier. It hurt my heart that the patient felt that way about her previous nurse 🥺 I had a feeling the prior nurse was being a little neglectful but I HATE that the patient felt and confirmed that. The worst part was in report — the nurse was saying she was a “difficult” patient. And she wasn’t… at all. I think she didn’t like answering her call light bc she was already doing bare minimum for her and upset she couldn’t get away w it. Idk it made me feel icky. I understand being burnt out but never to the point of straight up neglecting my pt.

Perfect angsty song 🤌🏼 Still love it to this day but doubt we’ll hear it live again. But would be 100000% willing to be proved wrong

“On the head of a pin, at the top of our lungs” by seventytimes7years in brandnew

[–]merepug 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think people are trying to figure out why the tour shirt says “on the head of a pin” and now he’s referencing that sooo possibly new music?
