This post is the reason I’m getting out of bed before 0630.

I never wear regular t-shirts to work but I ordered a new Nine Line shirt for Nurse's Week and it's cute and comfy 💖

Gotta love vet techs lol

This weeks episode of The Pitt was everything. As a nurse I have never felt more seen. I've been Emma, Princess, Perlah, and Dana. I have literally experienced coding someone with a pulmonary hemorrhage. Whitaker is right, the nurses run the show (don't get me wrong the others do too lol).

But thank you Noah Wyle and The Pitt crew for making the nurses as badass as you do. And thank you for making a show that actually shows an accurate description of working in the medical field.

Virtual Offerings for Humans and Writers

I am a Registered Nurse, have a Master of Public Health and experience in hospital floor nursing, outpatient nursing, public health nursing, and education. I am establishing a base of virtual offerings for anyone who is interested. Thanks for perusing my wares!

Note that everything here can be done via videocall, phone call, discord message, email, or text, as appropriate for the situation.

My contact email for this work is [email protected].

You can pay me for things like:

New Condition Education (Did you just get diagnosed with something the doctor didn't have time to explain well? I am happy to schedule some time with you to help you better understand.) - Sliding Scale from $10-30/hr

Basic Health Education (Did the public school system screw you or your child over when it came to health ed? I can provide a basic (queer-friendly and non-fat-phobic) health education curriculum over 3 or more 1:1 videocalls.) - Sliding Scale from $10-30/hr

Nurse Troubleshooting (need some advice on setting up your living space so it is accessible for you? I would be happy to help!) - Sliding Scale from $10-30/hr

NCLEX Tutoring (Are you about to graduate nursing school in the USA? Feel like you need some extra help? I have been teaching medical and nursing students for the last 4 years and just finished a course on the new NCLEX, so if you're interested in some 1:1 help, hit me up!) - $20/hr

Historical Medicine and Nursing for Fiction (Are you writing something cool and historical that takes place less than 150 years ago? Need someone who has been quietly researching medical and nursing history for years and has a library of contemporaneous sources? I would be happy to help!) - $30/hr

Contemporary Medicine and Nursing for Fiction (yes I know you can get it from this blog for free, but then you have to use the tumblr search feature and potentially wait a long time. A 1:1 meeting would be much faster, don't you think?) - $30/hr

Medical Accuracy Review (did you write something you hope was medically accurate? Would you like someone to check it over and give advice to improve?)- $0.05/word for the portion reviewed

New! I also teach physical exam skills online. Great for if you missed them in nursing or medical school (I taught exam skills for 4 years to med students) or if you’re just interested as a lay person. I promise I am nicer than the last person who taught them to you!

Need something that's not on the list? Just ask!

the way that some people speak about people who are dealing with drug addiction makes me want to smack them over the head. where is your empathy and also why are you assuming this person is violent, dangerous and untrustworthy just because they use drugs? it’s like they have this ‘holier than thou’ complex or something. you’re not inherently a better person than someone else just because you haven’t used drugs btw. yes, sometimes drugs factor into people doing awful things and that is not ok, but the assumptions and stereotypes and wild accusations are just a bit much.

Mist after the rain, wildflowers, and a wet dog. The yellow ones are evening primrose and they smell like Froot Loops.

Here’s a diagnosis you don’t see everyday. (not patients current admit reason but in their history a few years back.)

Ballistic humerus fracture after a bear hunting incident.

Like I know what it means but I just can’t get out of my head the idea that the bear is the one who shot them.
