Do a video on what to do with a code blue.

Video idea-What I wished I had known when I graduated nursing school. Tips for applying to jobs, resume ideas, interview tips, stdying for NCLEX, etc. I've been watching you since before I applied to nursing school, and I graduate May 2018. 7 more months to go!

That's a great ICU assessment! I agree with all the above. I'd also include during your room check that you make sure you have an BVM/ or other emergency equipment at the ready depending on the patient. You're awesome!

I've been a tele nurse for over 2 years but am just starting in a new ICU. This is really great, thank you!!

I loved this. Thank you!

doing an ICU round for my last semester, Thanks for this great refresher video!

i just finished my senior preceptorship in the MICU and honestly for a while i hated my preceptor, but as im watching your video im almost like predicting the next thing you're going to say. as im watching this video im like, "oh yea i look at the monitor, then we look at the drips (line tracing), then we look at vent, etc etc." makes me think that my preceptor did a great job. anyways great video!

Im applying to nursing school so I️ don’t know anything specific but I️ love these videos! I️ feel as if I’m getting some tips before hand and it will probably help me outline what I️ need to look for when I️ start nursing school! Keep making more:)

Thanks for the video. Today I start ICU and this video is very helpful.

Do you do bedside reports? Seems like the best time to check tubes and IVs, and enables you to ask them about it right then and there. They teach it in class, but I hardly ever seen it actually being done. Thanks for the video!

at what point during your education or career did you decide you wanted to be in the ICU opposed to a different unit? Also what types of patients would you typically work with (like what types of illnesses or injuries)?

so helpful! ICU extern/ 4th semester NS, studying foundational ICU stuff all this summer to better prepare. Thank you!

This app prepares me very well for exams. Love it!

Thanks, I'm sarting soon from bedside to icu soon. So excited!

Starts at 1:40

thank you for this. I just started in the icu 4 weeks ago and I'm struggling with the multitasking during the assessment portion.

I’m taking critical care next semester along with mental health. It’s my last semester of my RN program. Taking my OB/PEDS final next week. I love the Emergency department and did an externship there but I love the ICU too! I guess I have time!

do you document in the room (have a little notebook) or do you remember everything and document at once when you have time. If you remember, can you give tips on how?

this was extremely helpful. Thank you!

Your so amazing Ashley 🤩

Hi Ashley I was wondering how long do it take you to do your assessment for each patient?

Hi Ashley!! Please could you do a video on nurses (or any other health care professional like OTs, PTs, doctors) working in the US military. Thank you x

How long does it take you to assess each one of your patients?

Incredible! Thanks you!

thanks so much for this Ashley! i'm starting my first ICU clinical tomorrow, last semester!! how did you know you wanted to be an ICU nurse, and how did you get over being overwhelmed in the ICU setting (if you were at all?)?

Monitors,vent,iv meds running, pupils,facial Symmetry, suction canister. Central line(meds,dressing) heart lung bowel palpate abdomen, foley? Incisions, edema? Pulses, cap refril, look at whole body(skin), grip push n pulls,

Okay I’m a new grad RN starting my ICU job pretty soon and even though everything you said makes sense, it’s good, and nothing too crazy just how much it all is seems very overwhelming lol. Nevertheless, great informative video and thank you for this.

I wish u could give solutions as well in addition to the checklist

Thank you for the refresher I just recently got out of the hospital for a burst appendix I was in the PICU for 2 and a half weeks then I ended up transferred to adult unit for 3 days then the night charge nurse came to me and said I have good news for you your going back up to the PICU that made my day and night and week. I was also transferred from the hospital where I started to another hospital where I spent the rest of my time I really miss the PICU and the nurses and the view of the river. I spent my 28th birthday in the PICU the nurses went above and beyond what was expected of them they brought me in cake balloons a card and decorated my room and 2 of the nurses brought me in Doritos and Sweets from a staff Appreciation. I ended up having 2 drains put in because we thought that the infection was gone so my nurse pulled the tube out but a day or two later I started feeling the same symptoms again so I ended going back down to X-Ray and they put another drain in. I also have 2 shunt tubes so the surgeon was worried about the infection getting into my brain so they Externalized the tube for a week then they brought me to the OR the day that I was being brought to the operating room my nurse waved to me as I was being brought to the operating room and as soon as I came back up she Immediately came right in and saw me and she stayed right by my side until the night shift came. I looked at her and said that I didn't think I could get to the Commode and said don't worry about it I'll Cath you right where you are. I was born with Spine Befida so that's why I have to Cath myself. I've decided that as of this last hospital stay I'm going back to school I had no idea that I was going to want to go into the healthcare industry until now back when I was in school I took building trades and then I went to job Corps and took Facilities maintenance I had no idea that I was going to want to go into the healthcare industry so now I kick myself in the but for not taking medical assistant course at tri-county and the CNA course at job Corps so I've been doing research and the best way that I have found to get my feet in the door is to start with phlebotomy and then become a medical lab tech my ultimate goal is to become a RN.

Loved this video!!! Smell is definitely one of the first things I note, it can really tell you a lot!

Very educational but being an ICU nurse sounds hard! So much to learn and assess and be responsible for

I'm starting nursing school in three weeks, so I've been searching for good advice for new students. I stumbled upon your channel last week, and I think I've watched about half your videos since! I'm a newlywed as well, and my husband recognizes your voice on my computer now. I love how detailed you are and how helpful and high-quality your videos are! Thanks for being awesome!

Do you also do the Glascow Coma Scale? If so, what assessment tools do you use?

I feel like I do almost all of this, no matter where I’m at. Glad to hear I’m not the only one haha.

Well I learned something from this video and I’m an ER nurse because they don’t really tell us these things for our ER assessments.

Hey new grad in ICU who follows ya on TikTok-glad to find ya on YT. Great video thanks

Beautiful and brainy- I love it. I've watched several videos because I'm doing my preceptorship in ICU. Feeling prepared thanks to your videos. So thanks! Keep up the good work :)

I am not a nurse but I enjoyed Your description of an Patient assessment In ICU. Do you use a checklist on performing this patient assessment?

Could you do a video on tips for manual BPs?

And some people say we don't do anything. With just one look we can notice things that others don't notice in a week

I love your videos and you’re beautiful you’re a great nurse

Superb👌very thankful, intresting video.👌💐

What about lab workers??

Apache 2 score. For ICU

Good video!

Yes, to keep my ARCH in my feet in tact.

Can I go to college for a BSN but still receive an ADN after 2 years and continue or do I have to get my ADN first then my BSN

You should've done your assessment on Jesse!

How often do you do a head to toe assessment on an ICU patient? Is it just once a shift when you do an in depth assessment?

I think I saw you on news saying about pregnant 16nurses in ICU in Arizona. Is that you? Haha~!^^

Awesome thanks!!

Your eyes are so beautiful

Video starts at 1:50. Welcome.

Commercial ends 1:45

I am also early come in Canada for nursing job ok iam fro India

👋😀

What about skin assessment ? Not a word ,,, boo ..

44 haters for no reason

You should have gotten a friend or your husband to help you film this

holy shit, this is so basic... should not come up under "advanced"

Your lipstick is distracting me, it's outside your lips. Triggers my OCD

whoa lipstick! I hope you don't wear that much makeup on the unit. Frightening!
