(almost) Graduate RN

Hello! My name is Cassy. I'm a BSN student in Canada. Besides nursing, I am passionate about sexual health issues and social equity. I'm also a sucker for cute animals and some pretty cringy memes.

I’m Worried My Doctor May Have Watched Episodes of ER Instead of Going to Medical School

DOCTOR: So what seems to be the problem? ME: I sprained my ankle playing basketball. DOCTOR: (To nurse) Okay, let’s get a CBC, chem seven, electrol...

[theglowstickchronicles]

That’s where I got my nursing education.

ok so there’s a game me and my friends play called “don’t get me started” and basically someone gives another person a random topic and they have to go on an angry rant about it and it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to us at parties and car rides so I highly recommend playing sometimes with your friends

[blueandbluer]

I love this idea. We used to do things like this in Improv.

[whatyouwanted-whatyougot]

Related game: “THINK ABOUT IT.” You’re given a random topic, and your job is to build it into an epic conspiracy theory, the crazier the better. You end your rant with a serious face and the command that your listeners “Think about it.”

Another related game: Illuninati. Similar to Think About It except you are given 2 completely different topics and you have to connect them to each other in a wild conspiracy rant

This University of Alberta Indigenous history course is the most popular course in Canada

Launched one year ago, the free online program has already had more than 20,000 people enrolled

A course created one year ago by the University of Alberta was the most popular online course in Canada in 2017, and is already making inroads into how Canadians understand the history of Indigenous people.

With almost 20,000 people enrolled, the free online 12-module course called Indigenous Canada teaches those from an Indigenous perspective.

“A lot of Indigenous experiences in Canada have been silenced by a normative settler vision of Canada and the history of it,” said Paul Gareau, assistant professor with the U of A’s Native Studies program and the academic lead for the course.

“This course focuses on telling an Indigenous experience of Canada.”

“The course is available for free through Coursera here.”

I’ve done this course and it is fantastic. I learnt so much about the various Indigenous cultures across Canada along with history and was given a much better understanding of what Indigenous people face. 

It only takes an hour or so per course and you can do them at your own pace.

Steven Hawking‘s life proves what we should all know to be true: that intelligence without compassion is meaningless, and that every person who is truly intelligent knows caring deeply for others is the smartest choice a person can make

[midwest-medblr]

Palliative care doctors were the epitome of self care. I could tell them anything, and they wouldn’t judge a thing. I loved how candid they were.

At one point, a patient with a complicated family situation making discharge tricky passed away. The physician turned to me and said, “At some point in residency you’ll feel relief that your patient died.” I nodded along in agreement thinking that she meant relief for the patient and their family and the end of suffering. Then she said, “No, I mean relief that you no longer have to do the work.”

I was so taken aback by it and didn’t know what to say. The chaplain with us chimed in, “And that’s a completely NORMAL response. It doesn’t make you a terrible person, and you don’t need to feel guilt.” They explained that the important thing is recognizing that you feel that way and that it’s a result of the high pressure system you work under. It’s the result of burn out and not because you’re a bad doctor who doesn’t care about your patients. I hope I remember the lesson when it happens to me.
