I wanna have a series that’s about nurses in a senior residence and every now and then one of the elders living there starts a fire or calls 9-1-1 bc he/she has dementia 😂 and then there would be many crossover episodes with 9-1-1 and when the nurses get asked what happened this time, they just sit there watching the 118 deal with the elderly shenanigans and laugh their as while the 118 screams for help 😂😂 me as a nurse to be would watch the shit out of this 😂😂

So I got a crappy grade back on an assignment. An assignment I thought I did pretty well on- but some profs are hard markers, idk if I missed a verbal instruction somewhere due to my hearing impairment, but I definitely misread a written one and it lost me like 7 marks - for misreading that one. . . It happens, but now I know what to expect from that prof and the only@place I can go from here is up! So more effort in class, knock quizzes out of the park! And kill this next assignment! Plus go to some office hours to make sure I’m understanding content! . . Online definitely makes some things more difficult- especially with being HoH/deaf but in the end the only person responsible for myself is me. . . #workharder #failed #nurse #nursingstudent #studentnurse #nursetobe #nurseingthemaking #nurblr #nurses #rn #rpn #rntobe #undergradnursing #ltcnurse #nightnurse #geriatricsnurse #newbienurse #babynurse #nightshift #nightnurse #lpn #lvn #cna #psw #bscn #bsn #adn #bscntobe #bsntobe #nurselife https://www.instagram.com/p/CHNd_8phiGw/?igshid=10ih8lk3ja6xc

This best sums up my reaction right now- I worked 16 yesterday, 12 today and now sleep before an 8. . . Tired doesn’t even begin to cover it. . . #tirednurse #deafnurse #nurse #nursingstudent #studentnurse #nursetobe #nurseingthemaking #nurblr #nurses #rn #rpn #rntobe #undergradnursing #ltcnurse #nightnurse #geriatricsnurse #newbienurse #babynurse #nightshift #nightnurse #lpn #lvn #cna #psw #bscn #bsn #adn #bscntobe #bsntobe #nurselife https://www.instagram.com/p/CDZL_V7hHNm/?igshid=17v3psjdpp67r

How I make my residents smile when they’re afraid. . . How I make my co-workers laugh when they’re scared about what they could bring home. . . How I make myself feel better when I don’t want to be strong for them. . . So now, you too can enjoy it and I mustache you a question? Did you laugh too? . . #mustache #faceshield #nurse #nursingstudent #studentnurse #nursetobe #nurseingthemaking #nurblr #nurses #rn #rpn #rntobe #undergradnursing #ltcnurse #nightnurse #geriatricsnurse #newbienurse #babynurse #nightshift #nightnurse #lpn #lvn #cna #psw #bscn #bsn #adn #bscntobe #bsntobe #nurselife https://www.instagram.com/p/CAXCqE2BYKf/?igshid=chm9arzhgwmv

When the nurse becomes the patient. . . Those who have been around for a while know all about my health journey. The ups and down. The way downs. . . With pulmonary hypertension chest pain can be super scary and very dangerous! I very quickly can go into respiratory distress. . . I, however, am very stubborn. The last place I ever want to be is a hospital as a patient, and will do everything to prevent myself from going. . . Yesterday was no different. I took my inhaler when I felt the tightness and pain, took naproxen to help with inflammation and pain. And laid down with cool water to sip on hoping it would pass and I could sleep. But no. . . After two hours of pain that was excruciating and unable to move without feeling light headed, I decided I was ready to make the trip to emerge. . . When I got there my initial BP was 170/105, and tachycardic at 140bpm. . . Cue blood work, oxygen, ECG and cardiac monitoring. . . I am ok! They got the pain and BP under control after a few hours. Tests all came back within normal limits and I was able to go home. . . It always gives me such a new view when I am on the other side of the curtain- especially as a deaf person. Masks make communication for me very difficult even with my hearing aids in. And why I napped off medication I would turn them off. Then tech and nurses and docs would come in to check on me and I wouldn’t respond to them (because I can’t hear them). Shift change of course made this more difficult because as soon as one would know and understand you’ll have to tap me to get my attention they would remember each interaction. . . #pulmonaryhypertension #spoonienurse #nurse #nursingstudent #studentnurse #nursetobe #nurseingthemaking #nurblr #nurses #rn #rpn #rntobe #deafnurse #ltcnurse #nightnurse #geriatricsnurse #newbienurse #babynurse #nightshift #nightnurse #lpn #lvn #cna #psw #bscn #bsn #adn #bscntobe #bsntobe #nurselife https://www.instagram.com/p/CAnhhqghsjs/?igshid=isex5bthy696

Check on your healthcare worker friends- we are not ok- we are busy, burnt out, and worried about our patients and our families. What could I be bringing home to my husband, what could I accidentally share with community? . . Last night I had to make a hard decision and pick a facility to isolate myself to and not go to the other temporarily because of Covid. . . I went from working 2 to working 1. . . #covid #covid19 #nurse #nursingstudent #studentnurse #nursetobe #nurseingthemaking #nurblr #students #rn #rpn #rntobe #undergradnursing #surgicalnurse #nightnurse #geriatricsnurse #newbienurse #babynurse #student #college #lpn #lvn #cna #psw #bscn #bsn #adn #bscntobe #adntobe #nurselife https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Hcxw_Bv10/?igshid=skg8gpg8k1g1
