I feel you! I went from 6 years med/tele to ER thinking I would love it but after 2 months I realized it is not for me & giving me the most anxiety I’ve ever experienced as a nurse. Thank goodness my manager was understanding & gave me a reference in the same hospital but as a float nurse instead. Nursing is hard!

He doesn’t care, trust me. Go do your thing and don’t worry about it. Two weeks is courteous, no weeks is sometimes necessary. 3:31

The important thing is that you corrected yourself and escaped, but as for me, I lost 20 years of my life before realizing that nursing was not for me.😂

Try being an lpn to give meds to 30 to 70 patients. I quit working as an lpn after 2 years. I recently finished my associates degree in accounting. Now I have a nice finance control job from home. If I pick any per diem lpn shifts. It's only during the holidays lol

Yeah! A lot of hospitals have a 6 month wait for transfers for nurses.. Good for you! And very courageous!! Bedside is not for alot of nurses.. and the conditions are tough in some places.. no cap on nurse to patient ratio.. is a serious issue..

Quit, They expect you to buckle at their mercy!... Remember you have control over your life, you don't owe them any extra time!

I worked as a nurse for 12 years and finally noticed that I need to change my career to something very different where I can retire.

Yesss hunni 💛✨ I've been watching your vlogs out of order but I don't care lol. I plan to be all caught up eventually. I love how you were trying to be relatable with your patient about The Jonas Brothers you're so sweet George! The people who are your patients are very blessed to have you as their nurse. " Yes hunni are you ready for it" 💛😁 3/25/23

you said i almost fell biiitch, Im dead - LOVE the transparency, I totally feel you on this!

I also left rehab nursing after three weeks in 2016. Don't be discouraged. There are so many other areas that you can work that are not bedside nursing- case management, forensic nursing, cruise nursing, group home nursing, home health nursing, utilization review, cosmetics nursing, etc, etc. Good luck with your search. 15 years Nurse ( RN/BSN). here.

7 pts! I would run for the hills. Im crying about 5.

🙏I feel your pain brother I hope you have found a new better job by now 🤗

They should have paired you up with another nurse until October. If you went to them telling them you feel overwhelmed then they should have found a way to make it safe for you and patients

Vitals can be taken by finger module and sent to your smart phone but no hospital is willing to spend money on technologies. They had rather lose nurses.

Just found your page and about to binge watch all your vids! New grad and I can relate so much 😭

The crippling anxiety is what is making me leave nursing. It’s soul crushing

I have been a nurse for 5 years and have worked in 13 facilities. I have had negative experiences in all of them. Nursing can be very challenging looking for a remote job or moving abroad

I just found this page and I love it!! ❤

7 pts is not safe😢, 4 is! Also, be glad you got just 1 month notice period instead of the whole 6 months.

You seem like an awesome person. New subbie!

Baybeeeee, no!!! I just read the title and I'm cackling!!! Burn out is a bitch and I absolutely get it. I do bedside but at least traveling, I get some versatility. But where was that 🍜 from? Domu??? Lord I need to lose weight but it was calling my name 😩 *Release yo fear, release yo stress, release yo job* love that song 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Let me watch the video... Ok...I'm def trying them!!

I've been working for 6mos only as a new grad nurse and I CANNOT with the anxiety! My pre and post shift anxiety are so bad sometimes I just wanna call in sick. I've never experienced anxiety like this until I started working as a nurse. I don't know how people keep up. I know many nurses are on antidepressants and anti anxiety but I don't wanna deal with it like that. I just want it to stop by quitting nursing but I don't know what other jobs I would do that pays the same :(

Tell em George!! Lol hilarious 😆

Have you thought about school nursing? I think you may enjoy it and you have weekends off , holidays and the summers although you will need to do some training in the summer. 🙂

So, put in your two weeks notice and move on. I worked in nursing for 40+ years from womb to tomb. Managers know how hard, dangerous,, and impossible nursing is. Consider PRN nursing with a Nursing Agency.

At 0:50 seconds lmao

Please quit nursing now. An unhappy nurse is not a good nurse.

Do corrections! I hear it’s better than bedside

Is there some unwritten rule where if you’re a nurse or healthcare professional you can only make videos in scrubs?

Monitors can be wireless and can be sent to your smart phone and computer system, but WTF!!!

It was the best decision you have ever made

I thought medsurg is only 5 pts maybe 6 if you’re out of ratio. What state do you practice e on?

7 patients is alot! Do you have a LPN or CNA to team with because that’s the way we worked back in the early 2000’s. Try school nursing ok.

I’m not drunk bi$&$ 😂😂😂 I’m sorry 😢 7pts in acute care is bad

Have you considered becoming a Nurse Practioner? It sounds like you would meet the work experience requirement.

Quit

Please don’t quit nursing just because you made the mistake of working in a hospital. There are so many nursing jobs available in need of nurses, outside a hospital setting. I never made my nursing career in a hospital setting and the jobs I had going back to 1980 were quite rewarding except for the first job which the facility deliberately created staff shortages for profits. Workplace bullying and mobbing is a thing most nursing jobs outside the hospital will not tolerate. It’s unprofessional, counterproductive and it creates a non conducive working environment and staff turnover, while increasing the risk of liability issues. When it comes to the health care industry, working conditions in today’s hospitals are at ground zero.
