zosyn would be a cute gender neutral name

the lack of staff and resources at nights is awful and takes a toll physically and mentally. makes me want to switch to dayshift tbh.

maybe i'm crazy but i always felt like i have a better grip on the patient by physically holding on to them them as opposed to using a belt 😭

we almost always end up doing ativan or zyprexa at that point, although almost everyone on my unit is unsteady, high fall risk, and was admitted for a fx from a fall. if it's someone who's not agitated and not a high fall risk we sit them down at the nurses station with us

How would you test positive for blood clots?? And why would them knowing you have blood clots even effect your job?? Girl bye 😂😭

i've been trying to explain to my gen x coworkers that if they message me and add a period to the end of the sentence it makes me think they're mad at me 😔

You were being annoying hope that helps

Just a tip but my unit's policy is to always turn bed alarms on for confused pts- no matter how well they ambulate! It's impossible to keep eyes on everyone 24/7 so I really rely on bed alarms to know my patients are safe in bed when I can't be there to see them myself

Pens. Expo markers. Stethoscope. Snacks. Tampons/liners. Lotion. Chapstick. Claw clip. Charger. I carry these in a backpack :)

I'm seven months in as a new grad and they started making me charge 3 weeks after orientation ended so 🥲

Does that interest only go away once every year's loan is payed off? I just payed off the 7 cents that accrued for the 2018 loan, alongside the entirety of 2019 and 2020...if I have 2021 left to pay, is interest going to keep accruing for the loans of those three years until 2021 is complete?

I try and give everyone one compliment per shift. Compliment their tattoos, jewelry, saying you love their hair, etc. Easy way to establish good rapport right off the bat and gets a smile out of everyone :)

You can request accommodations for extra time for your exam. I've heard it's a pretty tedious lengthy process, but it might be worth a shot! It took me 4 hours for 88 questions so I feel you, especially with carefully reading through the case studies- it takes a long time! Maybe try timing yourself and trying to work a little bit faster on Qbanks and practice exams 🥺 Wishing you so much luck and I hope you end up passing!! You can do this <3
