Zero patients in ICU tonight. Getting paid to watch Netflix. I love my job 😅💰

After a 7 month break of unemployment for my mental health, I’m back! 👩🏼‍⚕️✨

Person arrested...in the ER. Imagine the technician's reaction when they capture that on ECG.

[Kat @bad_KATtitude_]

I am so done with bedside nursing lol

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

I always thought I’d be so bored if I didn’t work, but I’ve been unemployed for 2 months now & I’m loving it

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

@aerohuney @Misslittlenars @nurse_charming It’s not only that, nurses are not going to want to report any of their med errors anymore with the fear that it can lead to jail time

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

We are imperfect humans doing our best in an imperfect system

[chaRmiNg 🪄 @aox4nopmh]

Nursing is probably objectively the worst career in existence, no matter how much I like it. No breaks, shitty pay, exposure to every hazard, risking your life in a pandemic, watch people die, government tries to cap your pay, and now you can go to jail if you make a mistake.

[Tex @TexMess_]

Am I starting to hate my job or am I in desperate need for a vacation?

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

@shahster1 Same, it’s gonna be hard but I’m saving money so I can start a business because I cannot stay bedside for much longer without risking my mental health

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

I don’t wanna be a nurse anymore 😞

[Chaplain Dollar Tree Darth Vader @TheRealRhllor]

People don't realize how fucking done healthcare workers are.

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

@Twylitegotban2x Thank you so much that means a lot 🥰 I’ve been good. I resigned from my previous job & got a new job with less responsibilities so we’ll see how it goes

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

@baddie_rae Yea I bet! Last week we had 5 cardiac arrests & 2 strokes called overheard in ER in a matter of 5 hours

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

@Twylitegotban2x Burnout. The shifts are getting more & more tiring. I used to look forward to going to work it’s been a while I’ve been excited to go on to shift

[New ICU RN @icunewbie]

@ensyclopedia Same! Lol that’s why I’m still here

[Kat @bad_KATtitude_]

I would never initiate CPR without PPE and I’d never come into work covid + Lmao. That’s just never gonna happen. Idc what the fucking CDC says.

[big d @sconnie_nurse]

The struggle of feeling like I can’t do this ICU bedside nurse thing for forever but also feeling guilty when I think about leaving because I’m good at what I do and patients deserve to be cared for by skilled, competent nurses 🙃
