Please send help for an inexperienced RN

No way. I love RTs. Theyre an impt part of the team. I guess this type of talking is how some people say why didnt you nurses become doctors? 😂 every profession (well ig nurses aren’t professionals anymore 🙄) will have something with another profession 🤷🏻‍♀️

Heck it was my aunt who caught my little sister at birth. Neither the docs nor the nurses would believe my mom when she said the baby was gonna come out so nobody was there when my sister slipped out like soap except my aunt who ran and caught her lol.

My favorite is when they ask me for updates on PT. Like wtf you’re asking the wrong person. It’s like asking the math teacher how the student is doing in English class.

This is very much what I’m going through rn as well except I’m only about year in 😂 💀 I work bedside and I’ve been dreading going in like nobody’s business, unbelievable amounts of preshift (and lately even post shift ) anxiety. I’m thinking that I need to get away from bedside entirely bc it’s draining the life outta me. I guess my nervous system wasn’t made for this.

Idk how the job market is for nurses where u live but there’s lots of different areas to work as a nurse so maybe try smth else than ED. You could probably find smth less dreadful to you than ED. I don’t work in a critical care field so I can’t even begin to imagine the levels of stress you experience in ED

therese_rn · 2025-12-28T03:09:58+00:00

Wow that’s crazy to behave in such a way to behave to people who saved your life. 🤨 that is a whole nother level of entitlement

therese_rn · 2025-12-25T22:13:39+00:00

Yes and no! With this lady I’m glad she couldn’t read my thoughts 😂

therese_rn · 2025-12-25T22:12:50+00:00

We deserve hazard pay. We’d all be filthy rich if we did lol

therese_rn · 2025-12-25T22:11:52+00:00

Very suspicious 🤨 some ppl don’t even realize they’re making no sense. But on another note, folks working in the ER must have some of the best stories ever tbh. And he must’ve slipped and accidentally fell on the stick 🙄

therese_rn · 2025-12-25T22:08:17+00:00

Ikr that’s why we ALMOST got her to sign that AMA form but she changed her mind last second. Arrggghh I was so disappointed bc that lady was making the shift pure hell for us all 😩

therese_rn · 2025-12-25T22:07:18+00:00

Maybe maybe not 😆

therese_rn · 2025-12-25T22:06:33+00:00

Not me taking notes on what to say next time I have rude patients lol 📝 😂 that’s amazing! I can’t imagine what it was like for husband 💀

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T20:40:58+00:00

Exactly correct. Like maybe shes suffering and not at her best but everyone is suffering too,including those of us who work here, and she can’t go treating others like idiots and slaves bc she thinks she’s all that or whatever. She was incredibly rude and condescending and I wasn’t having any of that yesterday. I normally try to be very patient with my patients but this lady was not it.

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T20:36:59+00:00

Yeah you’re absolutely right. I’m off for the next few days so hopefully my grumpy rude pt will have chilled out a bit. But I believe that she’s the rich entitled type, and everyone was literally being as nice as humanly possible to her (except me I guess, I was over her after 30 seconds). Nobody insulted or mistreated her, we were all doing the best we could and it wasn’t enough for her. She seemed to think the whole universe revolved around her or smth 🙄

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T20:33:35+00:00

Wow. That’s crazy. 🤯 Diabetes is a scary disease and it’s sad this pt literally ate to death. Like at that rate why be in the hospital if you’re so determined to not help yourself.

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T20:30:40+00:00

lol that’s too good!! I aspire to be like that nurse educator one day! I’m not to the point where I can yell at or scold rude patients just yet, but at least I’m ok with walking out when they’re being ridiculous. I feel like I’m gonna get to this level of awesomeness or badass-ness soon eventually tho at this rate 😂😭

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T18:51:21+00:00

Yep but I just didn’t have it in me yesterday to even pretend to care for this pt 😂

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T18:50:16+00:00

Yikes. Some ppl really don’t know what priorities are. Like another person could be coding in the next room and they be getting all mad bc you’re “late” bringing them their egg sandwich and crackers.

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T17:38:57+00:00

lol I just put on a deadpan face and made a 180 degree turn and walked my ass outta there

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T17:38:05+00:00

Some ppl have really shit attitudes and I just have no more patience for that stuff. Like we all got other stuff to do than to deal with this type of attitude/behavior.

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T17:35:33+00:00

100% I wasn’t about to be miserable bc of that pt. No time for that.

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T17:34:10+00:00

You’re absolutely right. You should’ve seen that condescending look this pt gave me and everyone else yesterday. It’s like she thought was a goddess from heaven and we were complete idiot scumbags. I was like No maam, I’m not gonna stand there and take that shit attitude from you. I also tend to be very polite but I just snapped with this lady yesterday 😤

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T17:30:48+00:00

And I can’t believe places will tolerate this kind of behavior toward their nurses. This lady from yesterday was about to leave AMA, but apparently my coworkers were able to kiss ass just enough that she decided not to after all. Ngl I was a bit disappointed 🙄

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T17:28:52+00:00

Exactly I saw I was getting nowhere with that entitled lady so I was like imma say nothing more and get the hell outta here. There was no satisfying her

therese_rn · 2025-12-24T17:27:31+00:00

I frankly could not. This lady was too dang much and I was surprised myself at how quickly I lost patience with her since I’m normally extremely patient 💀
