What would the best drugs be for fun stickers? *Edit: In the student nurse sub, some people have said that making these stickers is insensitive and disrespectful to patients. What say ye?* submitted by /u/Latter_Highway_2026 [link] [comments]
So my school was built in the 1920s and it’s very old. My classroom is directly facing the sun and I have several windows directly facing the sun. The AC barely works in the school. Needless to say it gets extremely hot in my room. There were times in May and June it reached almost 90 degrees because our air was so bad. I have three fans going at all times and it barely does anything. So as a complete and total pipe dream I put on my AWList this year a portable AC unit. My thought was that people would give Amazon gift cards to contribute to it. It was $300. Well…I had a friend today buy the entire thing. I couldn’t believe it. My question is, do y’all think I will get in trouble for using it in my room? My room gets unbearably hot. Today was our first day back for teacher workdays and we were all sweating in the media center during our opening meeting. I don’t want to get in trouble with the district or anything. This feels like a forgiveness over permission situation. What do y’all t
Okay so basically I had this student last year who I also have this year who came to class on time everyday and she seemed to be very eager to learn. She was a very hard worker and did very well on all of tests, quizzes and mastery assignments. late last year my AP pulled me aside an basically indirectly accused me of giving her special treatment in my class because she was failing everything but my class and her African American History class, (I taught her Civics last year). It really had me reevaluating myself thinking maybe I was unconsciously giving her special treatment but I know that I treated her the same as other students. She was doing well all on her own. That African American History teacher and I are now in a PLC together and I found out this morning that AA History teacher also had a similar talk with admin last year where our AP accused him of special treatment because she had an A in his class. It's just frustrating because it sound to me like she is just more engaged
I work in long term care. Each unit usually has 30 to 45 residents. We have 8 units. Its always just one nurse and 3 CNAs to a floor. My nerves are usually shot especially when floating to the heaviest units. My biggest pet peeve lately is hearing my name screamed out loud from across a hallway by the assigned CNAs when I'm busy at my cart, or administering meds or treatments in a residents room. They scream my name like its an emergency, as if it's a fire, a resident on the floor bleeding out, an active shooter, only for me to come out or look up in a panic and hear them then say something benign like, " so and so wants a Tylenol. 😵💫 it happens on the regular and it makes me react in a grouchy way snapping back "WHAAAT?", when i hear my name screamed. Then they have the nerve to act like i just dont want to do my job. I feel like a mother whose kids call them from across the house repeatedly because theyre too busy to come find me and talk to me in person. I love a lot of my coworker

My instructional coach (let's call her M) is a pain in my ass for no good reason. I am on my 3rd year teaching, and she consistently bothers me about mundane shit. I understood my first year that she would be more present and should dwindle off, however she keeps bothering me about things like minor rules (minor as in most teachers break them) and guidelines regarding our books. What i mean about the books is that we DONT HAVE THEM, and yet she got upset that im using old books from last year. The fuck am I supposed to use then? We are 3 weeks into school with no books! Ive asked my colleges if they also get walk-ins every week at a minimum and they say "no wtf" and " i haven't seen her this year outside 1 meeting". She was already told to back off by my vice principle last year and now that she's gone M is up my ass again. TLDR: I hate this lady and want her nowhere near me submitted by /u/Yo_angelo_ [link] [comments]

A consulting MICU fellow walks into a dumpster fire of a room to find a liver failure patient in DIC who was quickly bleeding out after an emergent vascular surgery. With the patient there were two experienced nurses along with myself. We were doing our absolute worst to keep the patient alive. Upon seeing the chaos and without gaining any context the fellow uttered the first wise words to enter her mind… “What is going on? Don’t you people know how to titrate drips?” Those magic words brought instant silence to the room. The phrase caused us to stop dead in our tracks to ponder such a profound statement. “Do I know how to titrate drips?” I asked myself. Surely this PGY-4 MICU fellow must have vast experience titrating vasoactive medications. Their years of internal medicine training has prepared them to manage an exsanguinating surgical patient with ease. Somehow this fellow has managed to surpass the combined 20 years of accumulated drip titration knowledge and experience of three CV

you are working in an environment no one really wants to have to be in - alarms going off, infections and viruses you may catch, fluorescent lighting, stressed out and paranoid and mentally ill co-workers, family, and patients, constantly switching from task to task, straining yourself to meet the physical demands of the job and possibly breaking your body, yet you do miraculous things. what you are being asked to do is a lot and it is tough work and it requires a grasp of science, body dynamics, a 24/7 on-the-job focus on patient safety, infection risk, interpersonal skills, an immense amount of emotional regulation, a level of self-care outside of work that most people will never have to dedicate themselves to just so that they can keep a job, and eventually you have young doctors asking you questions. so yeah, I don't think you need a doctorate to be paid well in healthcare. the things you are helping to execute and the decisions you make are inherently valuable. you should be value
I did my student teaching and was a long term sub for two different teachers all at the same school. The one I finished last year the teacher I took over for had left me ZERO curriculum and then resigned two weeks after leaving. So I gave those students a whole year worth of what they needed to know in one semester. I went to every IEP meeting, I was a scorekeeper for sporting events, I got rave reviews from parents. I sent out positive messages when kids did well, my classes improved in reading comprehension across the board. And they knew I really cared too, a lot of them remembered my from student teaching. These kids wrote a freaking PETITION to the principal to hire me and all signed it. (Without my knowledge!) So when not one, but two jobs opened up I thought I at least had a solid shot. I reached out in July, told them I was interested, they told me they would let me know because it had to go to the pool hiring first (since I was a sub and non-continuing) Just found out today th
Hey guys so we recently had a new nurse join our ER and when we did change of shift the narc book didn’t match the medications that were ordered they were charted under the wrong patient and one dose of a narcotic was missing. Apart from this half the charts were not completed and then this nurse texted me asking if I could meet with him to give her gabapentin and Xanax, I was so confused he then realized that he got the wrong number and he claimed that he was texting her brother who picked up his prescription to add to this one of the ER techs that works with us told me that he asked her if she sells street drugs? I ended up reporting this to the director of nursing and the medical director. I feel horrible about reporting him I’ve never been in a situation like this before but I really feel that it was needed to report this. What do yall think? What would you have done in this situation? Did I went overboard for report this? submitted by /u/Sudden_Edge8761 [link] [comments]
I am literally rotting away at my home health job and I am utterly miserable. I took a sign-on bonus and can’t quit til January 2027. I’ve been with this company (UPMC in PA) since Jan of 2025 (was graduating class of Dec 2024). I worked at the hospital on a Cardiac med-surg floor with unsafe ratios and had to check myself into an outpatient psychiatric clinic one day because I was about to lose my mind. I did an internal transfer and ended up in home health. We are expected to see 6 units a day. It can be 6 routine visits, one start of care and 4 routines, and so on. I also case manage nearly every patient I see. I have to call doctors, work on OASIS corrections constantly, order supplies for patients that get rejected due to insurance, and I find myself often charting way past our supposed end time of 4:30 PM. I usually come home, sleep for a few hours, and chart. I’ll be up until about 1 AM. This job has me thinking that nursing is just not for me. I started smoking/vaping again aft
Nurses am I overthinking this after an IV magnesium infusion? I’m an RPN on a med surge floor and I’m spiralling a little about something from my shift and would really appreciate some perspective. My patient needed IV magnesium and had poor access. Her existing LEFT forearm IV had infiltrated, so I removed it. I then attempted a new IV in her RIGHT forearm (her veins were tiny elsewhere and the hand veins were very squiggly/not straight) I got into the vein but it blew, so I abandoned that attempt. I eventually got a patent IV in her RIGHT hand below where I had attempted the forearm. I didn’t really have any another option (87 year olds do not have great veins) In hindsight I wish I had first attempted more proximal in the hand because now I’m worried about complications that could arise from this. The patient was only getting a one time dose of IV mag nothing else no continuous infusions. The hand IV flushed well and the patient had no pain or complaints. I ran the magnesium through
Hi everybody – I am a teacher heading into my sixth year of service in the state of California.

May seem like a silly concept, but I sat in a meeting on Friday, and once again they brought up “What’s your why?” Personally, I’ve really struggled with this. I like kids, I enjoy teaching, but I don’t have a real “why.” I had some good teacher growing up that may have inspired my career choice, but honestly there’s really no reason for my career choice, no “why.” I just am. Maybe my “why” is the flexible schedule! But I know no one would like that answer lol. Anyone else feel like this? submitted by /u/Trick_Story_2548 [link] [comments]
PREVIOUS RANT LINKED BELOW https://www.reddit.com/r/nursing/s/l3nZhkF9Kq So Friday was my last straw. I have my schedule set to have light Friday’s because we have mandatory meetings every morning at 8am-8:15, 8:30 IDG that lasts 2 hrs, and another mandatory meeting at 4:30pm. Every single Friday. I had 3 patients to see already and those visits lasted some time. I got to my last patient and OF COURSE my coworker said she has a migraine and apparently her vision is blurred. She said she’s making phone visits to her other 2 patients but she has one patient who HAS to have a home visit. The part time nurse only works M-W so guess who has to see them? Me. I got to the home at 3:30. As previously stated I was thrown out so I haven’t seen MUCH AT ALL. This patient is declining and had a drain and the family wanted me to drain it. They were already frustrated because I felt it was best the patient stay in bed because they were exhausted but they INSISTED on her on getting up to pee. I was fr
I’ve been working as an out-patient dialysis RN with a BSN for about 15 years in the Greater Los Angeles area. That’s all I’ve ever done, just out-patient dialysis with no hospital experience. I get paid about $52/hr and have been told I’m already close to hitting the ceiling while nurses in other specialties are getting paid $65+/hr with 15 years of experience. I feel stuck. All the hospitals are looking for nurses with at least 1 year of acute experience.

My state passe a phone ban. My school is enforcing it. Phones go into a pouch as they walk in the door. Most students put their phone in the pouches. Others keep it away. If I see it, it goes in the pouch. Except for 1 student. He flat out says no. I had already written him up this first week. Friday he told me, "You already written me earlier in the week, just do that again." I had him escorted out of my classroom by campus police to the admin office. I fear this will be happening a lot. I have reached out to home and no response. I didnt hear anything from the office. But I did email his counselor. I will see what she says. I will probably email the rest of his teachers and see if they have same experiences. Its gonna be a long year. submitted by /u/jesslynne94 [link] [comments]
I’ll die on this hill. If a teacher can tell you exactly what they’re going to be teaching next Thursday at 10am, during math they are either lying, not adjusting instruction to meet learner’ needs, or a Grand Chess-master capable of seeing things 75 moves before they happen. Don’t expect teachers to differentiate and make adjustments for their students _AND_ turn in scope and sequence for their year and lesson plans for the week. submitted by /u/OtherSideOfKnowhere [link] [comments]

TLDR: I was told to get report on 2 brand new patients to me at 1805 pm, was approached to be given report at 1830, and I refused (shift change is at 1900). Im a PCU RN and I work 7a to 7p. Today, at around 605 pm I noticed on the assignment board two patients added to my assignment. I asked the charge about this and she said 2 nurses were being sent home. I was never told about these new patients and I was concerned about the timing and lack of appropriate handoff/assessment time. I told the charge who said to call the assistant manager. Long story short we talked for like 15 minutes and she explained budget concerns, that she told the charge much earlier to send people home, etc. At 630 pm I was approached by one of the nurses being sent home who asked if I was ready for report and I said im absolutely not getting report at 630 pm. The ANM then called to confirm that I was declining report, and I said, yes right now im not taking report, I am working on my own patients. At 6:42pm, a

I could really use some advice. I apologize for the length. I was hired as an English teacher in California. The job offer letter that was provided for my intern credential states that it is for an English position, and the listing on EdJoin also lists that it is for an English position. There was optional training about a week before required orientation meetings for new teachers in the district and for my particular school. Unfortunately, I had to miss this optional training due to my previous job. I now believe this was a massive mistake, as apparently the two new English teachers found out their courses at that time. I was told on a Friday—with school beginning on a Wednesday—that I must teach an advanced drama and an intermediate drama class in addition to three English classes. I have zero experience with drama (no classes in high school or college, no knowledge of lights or set design, nothing). I was told to use AI and they would hire another person to direct the play.

Medical education in resource-limited settings faces significant challenges in providing diverse clinical exposure and fostering essential skills such as clinical reasoning, communication, and empathy. Due to the inability to afford immersive technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), constrained by financial, infrastructural, and structural barriers, interactive simulation videos (ISV) constitute an innovative, cost-effective educational tool that can bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical clinical experience, while enhancing student engagement and learning outcomes. This study aimed to assess the educational value and user experience of ISV as a supplementary tool in teaching medical semiology among medical students in Mozambique. A quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted among 4th-year medical students at Alberto Chipande University. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed, including a one-

If any of you guys are sick of bedside and looking for a way out, consider occupational health!! I have been doing it for about only 3 months now, and I can sleep at night! I enjoy my days off! I don’t dread going to work or have panic attacks before clocking in! You know what I do? Basic physicals. Send pee to a lab. Draw blood and send it out. And we deal with worker’s comp and workplace injuries so there’s a fair share of something that will keep you on your toes. No one is dying! I do boatloads of paperwork and don’t even hate it because I have time to do it, and can listen to my music in my little office 🤭 I was so tired of bedside and truly hated everyone just saying “you have to find your niche” or “something good will come”, but guys!!

Sorry just have to rant about this unbelivably unprofessional and inconsiderate nurse that I worked with the other day. New hire on the unit, I've heard negative things about her but I'm not one to socialize or gossip at work so I kept my mouth shut and said I'd give her a chance. This is a small med/surg unit with 15 bed and 3 nurses usually. Well someone in staffing fucked up and we only had 2 nurses scheduled that day. Not unheard of on nights but rare on days. Me and this nurse end up splitting the unit down the middle and I swear to god I saw her true colours come out. She was on the phone the entire goddamn day. Seriously. Either on the floor with an airpod in or in the breakroom on the phone. I've never seen anything like that before in my life. The doctor was sending her multiple secure chats, she's not answering and so the doctor calls the floor and I answer and I end up having to take over tasks for her patients because she's MIA. When it came down to breaks she was like ok I
