    There's just something so calming about your vlogs and even though I enjoy your tiktoks a lot I have found you on UA-cam and loved all your content so far. I am glad you are happier now that you changed section and wish you the best for th eholiday season, especially as a healthcare practiocioner (it's hard out there). Love your content and keep posting vlogs even longer ones I bet everyone will love them!

I’m a MA and I did a CNA program, during clinical I also didn’t really like bed side either. I’m hoping to be a RN. I feel dumb cause as cath lab I literally thought it meant like UAs lol 🥲 can you go a little more into detail please of what Cath Lab is? Also you ever think about doing L&D or NICU? Any pros and cons to that, May I get your input?

    • @RachelSantana
      @RachelSantana  Рік тому

      I think you mean cardiac versus interventional radiology... it really varies! Cardiac is faster pace and a little harder than IR. But typically the more critical patients will have anesthesia on the case and as the nurse its less work for you.

    Be careful with the peanut butter powder if you have dogs because it contains xylitol which is deadly in small quantities for our pups. It’s also in other things like mouthwash, toothpaste, gums, foods and especially sugar free/low sugar foods, etc. companies aren’t even required to label it so be very careful!
