LOL " i cant feel my pulse" totally me in skills lab
Cassandra Bourbonnais or I don’t hear a BP😭!
@@ellib467 always miss the systolic 😆
And the classic "I can't feel a pulse, I think I'm dead" line
Me feeling for my classmates brachial pulse last week:
🤣🤣🤣
BP kills me “am I dead” 🤣
I’m gonna have to highlight everything! LMAO literally me
Hahaha!
And me
I was planning on doing the same until we got "e-learning" aka online books😑
Lio G I do this anyway but I’m not in nursing school
Same 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why am I suddenly terrified of peds 😂
Jo Caza lmao same 😪😂
SAME
Peds isn't too bad. If you learned med surg + advanced med surg, then all you'll have to learn for Peds is what's different in kids vs adults. You just build on your previous knowledge. You got this! (I was scared too, but with hard work, studying, and prayers I made it through :)
Not A Lie thank you!!!!!! I’m excited though!
Unless you have your worst professor teaching that class, it's not the worst class. It ain't too bad
"Shh, can you guys keep it down? We're trying to feel our pulses over here." "I can't feel anything." Hahahahah
🤣🤣🤣🤣🦴
The realest one of them all🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pediatrics; I don’t even know when I was immunized 😭😭😭
Hahaha!!!!!!
45 year old me: Is there a vaccine for chicken pox Now?! Show & tell me: Look at all the scars I've got from when I had it!
You should do the stages of new graduate nursing :)
I have something like that coming out next week! Stay tuned :-)
@@NurseBlake haha excited
@@NurseBlake OMG that would be awesome! I'm actually a new grad nurse right now and I'm orientating to my first job :)
@@yulia_m_k DID YOU GET THE JOB?!
I was in nursing school 35 years ago and I still have vivid recollections of my meltdowns at 3am sitting on my bed surrounded by books and index cards 😂😩😂……so glad I did that in my 20’s when my brain sorta still functioned 🤣
Me when I was studying for teas
Fun fact: My pharmacology teacher is the *author* of the Davis Drug Guide. Imagine our faces when she goes, "Yes, I am the author of your Drug Guide." 😂 bless our hearts. I have foundations, research, and basic care this fall - wish me luck!
I've been there, my Morals and Ethics teacher wrote our book....no BS-ing any answers on his exams :(
Omg! 😂😂
Wayne state?
Where do you go to school?? And how cool. Good luck chic
'Uhm excuse me, what is ATI?" LMAO
Aka your biggest nightmare
LOL...you'll know soon enough BWAAAHHAAHHAAAA
I love ATI tbh lmao@@TheMabes69
What is ATI?
@@soniais2990 Its like a quiz bank and testing system a lot of nursing schools use
I'm a 45 year old male accounting career professional in Canada with a lifelong dream of being an RN. I'm currently doing distance education prerequisite credits to be able to apply to a BSN program. Half of the time I think I must be insane to even consider this kind of career move, and the other half of the time I'm driven by my dream. I have to say.....you are awesome and your videos give me life. :-)
Good for you!!!! Dreams don't have age limits! Do it!!!
I'm 45 and have worked in IT for 22 years. I started my BSN lower-division pre-requisites in January 2019 via an accelerated online program while working full-time, and I definitely question my sanity at least every other week. Keep your eye on the prize. We can do it! Best of luck with your studies, Lance!
Went back to school to be a nurse for my third career. Always wanted to be a nurse but was always afraid to take the leap. Worked full time while in school full time. Graduated this past August at 48 years old, love my job, and could not be happier. Keep the faith. You got this!
I am 45 and currently in the 4th of 8 quarters of nursing school. Med/surg. I love these videos. They are hilarious and so true.
49 yo plastics exec that went back. 10 months from finishing my RN (hopefully!) when I'm 50.
Only regret is not doing it sooner!
Go for your dreams!
"Sorry, I just have these little mini meltdowns." My life in a nutshell. Right before my simulation today when I was stressing out my professor told me that I would be just fine and i'm like "Fine!? I'm a nursing student! Since when are nursing students allowed to feel 'fine'!?"
Emily W Truth.
🤣🤣
Sphygmomanometer will forever be the hardest word for me to spell and say. 😂
Lol , the crying part is so realistic in nursing school .... creating care plans and learning how to read ekgs.... ugh!
I cried in OB and High Risk Pregnancy!! Yes 2 patients!!
I've never seen a more accurate representation of me in peds hahah
I'm barely taking Anatomy and physiology this semester and next semester I start all my nursing classes for the next 2-3 years. this video made me scared because I'm already stressed in A&P 😭😂
Savannah Faith as long as you know how to study and not be distracted by your phone or other things you will be fine
You’ll be fine - I’m a senior in nursing school and still going strong .. stress is just part of it unfortunately
A&P is tough, yes you need to put everything a side... And take notes. Look at the power points. Record the lecture. The review is key. Take breaks and don't over study. It's a lot of information. Get in a Study groups. Use Flash cards. You can do it, just takes work and dedication.
We’re in the same boat! Crash Course and Khan Academy are majorly saving my butt right now
Girl same 😩I jus started and I’m already stressed. But I make sure all my work is done.
"Did she say fundus? WHAT'S A FUNDUS???" OMG, just wet myself. "What is ATI?" Dying--just got my license last week. I had a new student ask me when it gets better. I said about 4 years, more or less lol.
1 yr in practice gets better
I'm 6 yrs in currently
🤣
Currently studying my Bachelor Degree... and I’ll never forget this one girl. Now Ive done Vital Signs before, like I can do them in my sleep because I worked in Aged Care so I already know the basics... anyway, it was our first lab class, practicing vital signs and the girl I was buddied with, she struggled real bad to find my pulse and to hear anything when doing the blood pressure while I got hers straight away... I told her not to give up, that it takes practice and she will get it.
She ended up having a breakdown, crying her eyes out because she thought she was going to fail at it all. I promised her that she would be ok, that she’d get it. She would make a beautiful nurse and I didn’t want to see her give up.
I spent some of my free time and helped her practice... and then the day she finally heard the blood pressure for the first time and found my pulse, I cheered alongside her and I felt how proud she was of herself. Such an amazing moment.
Anyone wanting to become a Nurse, it is a difficult road and it can be so easy to be discouraged and overwhelmed by it all, but it is a life changing experience and worth fighting for
Guys I’m barely starting college and I’m already stressing about nursing school :(
Yup it's extremely hard
You’ll do great! We all went through it and you’ll tell yourself you can’t. It’s hard but you can do it (:
This is just the hard parts wrapped up in one vid. Once you remember why youre in nursing school it becomes a lot easier to get through it. Source:4th year nursing student :)
@@vanessapecina1413 it's a piece of cake, don't worry ;)
It's not easy...I'm not even going to pretend that it is. You will feel defeated at times, you will want to give up at times, you will cry, you will be very busy...You will bond with your classmates like no other. You will want to go to happy hour way more often. Take care of yourself & be good to yourself. Be organized. Let those that are close to you understand that things will be changing for you while you are in school & will need their support. Make sure the people around you are positive & not toxic! And never be afraid to ask questions! I'm sure there's way more I could say but that's it for now lol....
“I’m just having a little mini meltdown” Literally me everyday😂
“AAH!” 😂 literally my most used expression throughout nursing school
I would pay good money to see a compilation of all your videos outtakes 😂
Haha!!! Good to know!! LOL
Lol! I went to nursing school back in the dark ages ( mid 1980's) and am now retired (Jesus, thank you). This still brought back so many memories!
You are spot on!!! This is so accurate! I laughed so hard when you said “what’s a fundus?” I literally asked that when I started my OB class!
Truth in everything you said Nurse Blake. I thought we were the only ones that did the windshield survey.
Same!!!
We did the windshield survey too and I didn’t want to take my car 😂
Lol I thought so too!!! Lol
HAHAHA i died when he said windshield surveys but SO TRUE THO
What is the windshield survey?
I start my BSN program next month and I’m both excited and scared lol. I love your videos! They always make me laugh. 😂
Same I start my actual classes next semester August 26!! Good luck 🍀
My bsn was CAKE compared to my Rn program. It was busy work mostly. You will do great!!
Don't worry you will quit 100 times before you graduate lol. You will understand in 1 year what I mean.
Clean your car, get some sleep and hit the ground running. It's worth it.
NursingOverload Thank you! I’m sure we’ll both do well!!
Oh my God. This reminds me so much of nursing school. I just had flashbacks. We had to memorize everything. I practiced head to toe assessments on all my neighbors. NURSING SCHOOL IS A BEAST.
Developmental stages made me feel I had dimentia starting already.
“It got so hard so fast” 🤣🤣🤣 that’s what she said
“Can you be quite, we’re trying to FEEL our pulse” 😂😂
Hello
How are you doing today?
I think that was the best line
The Erickson’s “whatever” development stages..yep 🙄
Mi Ci We get those in teacher school too 😂😂
I still don’t understand why that shit was important like who caresssssss
@@lilbebegirlxx ikr. Like I don't even think the stages are accurate 😂
@@tuturu6774 thats bc they arent lol its not real its all to f*ck us on NCLEX. Or even like the child development and what toys they play with. LIKE WHY DO I NEED TO KNOW THIS?!
Oh my goodness!!! Praise God.. it’s been 20 years and I don’t know how I made it... wow!!! God bless you all!!!
I TA'ed a first semester pathophysiology class last summer. Day one, a hand goes up in the back of the class " is this going to be on the NCLEX?"
Lol, the hardest semester was med-surge! Omg hard but fun in clinical. I sort of miss being a student, but not the exams or osce
I’m currently in med Surge..call for help
I always hated OSCE
Ahmed Alwahaibi to pass our licensing exam we had 16 of them plus the written, which was 100 short answer questions
Marieke Dufresne omg! Med fucking surge!!! Hated it to the core
I'm a recent grad and you are so dead on. Peds had my whole class in tears! You summed up nursing school in 3 minutes!!!
I'm in peds rn and I told my friend who is in the program "peds is a giant soup"
The meltdown was the funniest part for me. Love these Blake.
Highlight the important stuff! *highlights entire textbook*
Damn I was on a high horse too thinking that medsurg and pharm was the hardest and that if I can get through that I can get through anything but that peds class got me scared😰
The problem with peds is it tries to act like adolescents and newborns are the same species. Babies are so radically different from teenagers that it should be 2 separate things. Teenagers have almost adult bodies but these really immature brains marinating in hormones and babies have these bodies that are only as related to adults as tadpoles are to frogs.
I was totally waiting for you to mention the highlighting struggle! I remember studying and I'd start highlighting and it seemed like I had to highlight 95,% of every page. 😂 Also, I remember feeling like I couldn't possibly fit anymore information in my brain! When I was going to school for my RN, I also worked 30 hours a week, and a husband and 3 little kids to take care of. I had dreamed of being a nurse since I was 8 yrs old. I struggled through all of it, only to end up developing a neurological disease in my last year. I tried to finish, had 1 semester left which was nursing management. However, the CRPS in my left knee spread to both legs from my thighs to my toes and I could no longer tolerate clinicals so I was forced to drop out. I was heartbroken and 15 yrs later, I still am! I love these videos! I hope everyone who is a nurse appreciates the job, even all the chaos because I would give almost anything to be the caregiver instead of having to have a caregiver. Keep these awesome videos coming nurse Blake, they bring up a lot of good memories for me. Also, has a video been done on nursing students going out to unwind after exams or Semesters ended because the people that I was in school with were very professional in school and clinical, but boy did we party hard when we could! 😂 I have a lot of crazy memories of seeing classmates turn into people that I had never seen! It was hilarious and so much fun!
I feel your pain
“They can’t be that hard on us” 😢
I love the fact that my nursing professor played this video in class yesterday 😅
Ugh wish me luck going into my final year of nursing school 🙏🏼
R u UK or USA. It's difficult af. Final year trainee.
Good luck.
OMG THE SCREAM @1:30 IS MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE LMAOOOOOO *THEN PROCEEDS TO HIGHLIGHT THE WHOLE BOOK BECAUSE IT'S ALL IMPORTANT
and calling it "blood pressure cuff" because you can't pronounce the actually name LMAOOOOO x2 I'm so WEAK!!!!!!!
"learn drug information" One time at work, I questioned a doctor's drug order. It turned out to be a dosage error that was not caught by the hospital pharmacy. If I had given the drug as prescribed by the doctor, it would have killed the patient.
that mini meltdowns occasionally pass lmao🤣🤣
The scream when he was highlighting 😂
"they can't be too hard on us"...."omg, it got so hard so fast!" 🤣🤣🤣 me all day! I just love you and your channels! ❤️ I always have a spot for you in our study groups. Like you even need it, but I support you and I'm a fan lol
I'm not even a nursing major but I found this so funny 😂😂
I honestly feel like EMTs are more ready for the nursing program than CNAs especially since we actually get to do assessment, meds and vitals mechanical vs having everything a botton away. Like I'm in CNA class now 🤦 they can't even do half the stuff EMTs can but apparently we all need to take CNA classes just to start the nursing programs
I'm starting nursing school again failed the first semester gonna try again ... and this is sooo accurate 😫😬
Good luck, you can do it! We've all been there. Step back, figure out what went wrong the first time and make sure it doesn't happen again. Good luck! :)
You got this Vanessa!!!! So happy you didn't give up and that you are moving forward :-) I'll be cheering you on!
Starting BSN next week.
SUPER NERVOUS 😩
I need all the luck I can get 😭
I love your comment saying, "what did I sign up for?" because I can totally relate. I've been a CNA for 3 years at a hospital and will be starting my first semester of BSN nursing school this fall. I also find it funny when you said, "what's an ATI?" because I was talking to an RN who asked me that question and I was like, "uhh... it's the nursing exam stuff." Not sure if I nailed it. Love your videos!!!
For tonights reading, please read pages 357-483!!!
And I gave up the highlighter as I was always highlighting WAY TOO MUCH!
Funny thing a student ended up delivering my youngest because she didn't want to wait for the doctor his look was priceless
i remember my first existential nursing student crisis. it was 10 minutes into our first lecture ever
the instructor was showing us how to put on PPE and it hit me i was in literal nursing school about to become a real nurse and be responsible for other ppls lives
My existential crisis happened when we started pharmacology. The drugs we give can EASILY kill people. One wrong move and it’s over. Hard to grasp sometimes
@@ExcludedShadow especially when you start to learn how pharm companies will try to hide statistics regarding adverse side effects (bayer, johnson & johnson, etc).
My God I can still remembered this after a thousand years later. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣💕
Peds is the hardest class, tear tear :(:( lol
But then you scared me when you mentioned memorizing vaccination dates
Pharmacology for me!
What is peds?
jessieq13 pediatrics
And that schedule doesn't even include the new vaccines for COVID19 and whatever boosters are needed.
I’m starting in January this is going to be super fun I can tell 😂 they already gave us a packet with instructions that are completely incomprehensible … it’s perfect.
Same here. Good luck!
Omg, during a practice health assessment in school, my lab partner tore my tympanic membrane with the otoscope cover while checking my ears and I ended up nearly losing my hearing on my right ear. Due to my poor hearing, I had to chose a nursing job that would not require me to ever use a stethoscope and that is why I am an O.R. nurse. Be safe guys!
This is so accurate. I question my career choices at least thrice a day😭😭
As a pharmacy student, that pharmacology section is my life 😂😂😂
That was me with med-surg! 😩😩 especially because we had our pharmacology mixed in with it. So you had to remember BOTH 😩😭
Yeah...med surg was rough man .. barely made it out .. was still able to get a B but good lord it was a hell of a fight
Omfg that's me and my cohort now. Only 3 people out of 60 passed the first med surg exam and don't even get me started on achieving 100 percent on med math. We are dying lol 🤣🤣🤣
My friend (who is now a DON and completely bomb proof) called me crying I don't know how many times during A&P. She ended up having to take it twice and was sure she'd never make it. My what a difference a decade makes! LOL
When you said "I'm going to have to highlight everything" I relate with Medical Billing and Coding lmao 🤣
Lolololol when he started talking about Pedes
I AM DEAD RN
I’m starting I’m 4th year next September and BOY I CAN SO RELATE
Me too! We're almost at the finish line!
I can’t wait to start next month.❤️ bring it on.💪🏽
What a great beginning of my day! Thank you! This was by far the most funny video ever related to nursing school. Everything is so accurate. You nailed it! 😂😂
I haven't even started nursing school and I'm TERRIFIED 😂😭
😂😂same
It's not difficult, but just a ton of assignments group projects, and tests. Study good and smart and you should be a-okay.
@@anaisanais8654 thank you!!
I'm currently in my second semester of my nursing program, and this video just feels like a week of classes! Love your videos and can relate to a lot of them!
I said the "didn't know it would be THIS much math" one MULTIPLE times 😂😂😂
The little AHhh at 1:29 just kills me for some reason lol! I'm currently taking a CNA 1-month course & I just love watching this stuff cuz this is kinda how I'm feeling going through it. Can't wait for it to be over and done with!
PS: BTW Nurse Blake, your videos give me liiiife!!!!!
Literally can relate to all of this! Thank you for the laugh 😂
“What’s a fundus?” 🤣 that was me first day of OB
“Are we going to be able to use calculators on the exam?” MEEEE, literally said that my second week of classes 😂
Some of these I definitely felt in OT school! Pediatrics was definitely one of the hardest classes for us too! All those milestones! Pediatrics and neuro were the worst!
I love at the end of the video how you show you laughing and goofing off with your friends and just having a good time off camera as well
This is about to be me 😂😂
I start next month August 26
Hella excited as equally scared
Wish me luck guys ❤️😭
Your so hilarious 😂 but it's so true.
Great video 👌 thank you!
I just got my stethescope the other day and i've been listening to both mine and my mother's heartbeat and lung sounds and i love it
I just started nursing school and also just found your page. So glad I did! I know who’s videos I’ll be looking at for a good laugh when I feel a mini breakdown coming on 🤪
I’ve been out of school for a year now & this is spot on 😂😂
Omg the way you cry/whine and breath in between kills me!! Thank you for the laughs!! 💗😂
LOL That's for watching!!!
Not me watching this when I should be studying for my health assessment final on Friday. 400 pages of textbook for 1 test, its beautiful.
I showed this to my sister and now she's scared 😅
"It can't get any harder, right?" It never seems to get easier 😭
It’s crazy watching this as a new nurse now and realizing we were ridiculously psyched out for no reason & didn’t really have to know everything 🙃
I’ve actually never laughed at one of your videos harder 🤣
Haha, thanks for watching Veronica!
The pediatrics part got me real good.
I just found your channel. I am not a nurse but I have 3 nurses in my family. It is just great!! I can't stop laughing😁😂
Just started nursing school two days ago... I have so much to fear and look forward to. Thanks Nurse Blake!
You should be fine, just stay ahead of the curve.
Omg so true peds IS the HARDEST class 🤣🤣🤣
I had a good instructor that made me love it... honestly I think that helps...
I love it, I have meltdowns like every other day!! But I come here and you motivate me!!!
Omg I love the little high pitch screams he does sometimes in his videos! 😂
I just got accepted in the Nursing program at my school and Im sooooo excited. But. I just know In going to be one of question asking and highlighting students...lol so I brought a lot of highlighters so future classmates!!! Lol
Debating whether stranger anxiety occurs during 7th or 8th month old, 1 hour before the exam. Oh peds
You definitely need to do a video on what a nursing school class group chat is like on the daily!
Graduating my bsn program in a few weeks and our peds professor played this for our class today before our last final 🥹
I love the fact that I used to watch these videos before I started nursing school 😊😊
Now I’m at the end of my #ABSN program, I enjoy them even more 😊😊😊
You are just too cute for words. Everyone needs a friend like you in their life.
Omg. You are too funny. Love how you make fun of everything we have to go thru and how hard nursing school is.
First year first term nursing student with finals in 2 weeks 🙌🏼🙌🏼 thanks for the laughs Blake!
