    I knew since nursing school that bedside nursing was not for me. I am a psych nurse for an organization and love it. I get really upset because I get many comments from other nurses and non-nurses saying psych nursing is not real nursing. Just because I am not at the bedside does not make me any less a nurse!

      Yes! I love doing peds home health :) It is so gratifying to build a relationship with the munchkins, babies, and kiddos as well as their families. You get to witness their progress developmentally and medically over time. Helping to wean off of vents and g-tube feeds is difficult, but so gratifying to help facilitate. Some of the patients are quite high acuity, and stable enough to be at home is not really stable so much as it is "stable". Many peds home health patients are very medically fragile and clinically complicated. It is definitely a different level of self-reliance working nights in this specialty, but one that I love more than anything else.

      @@fdpc517 Not sure if you are still considering it, but I would definitely recommend applying to peds home health agencies. As long as they are willing to train you, and provide you with a good preceptor it's definitely worth considering. The pace of learning is not quite as overwhelming for a new/new-ish grad as a hospital setting. You learn each patient's routine, medical history, care, and baseline 1:1, which allows you to build a stronger holistic framework for understanding all aspects of your patient's care.

      Nursing forces you to interact with people every single day and with experience you find your voice. It takes all types of personalities and there are so many different areas of nursing that you can choose from to find where you fit. If you are interested, it’s a good career to consider.

    I've enjoyed your videos so far. But I was disappointed (though not surprised) that geriatric nursing (AKA LTC) was not included. Congrats on five years as a nurse. I've been a geriatric nurse for THIRTY five years. I've tried other things, but this is what I love. We have no backup specialists. We are psych/urology/trauma/hospice/med-surg/respiratory all in one. And these days, we've been getting admits straight from ICU. Anywhere from 17 to 50 patients/residents. And in some places I've been the ONLY nurse in the whole building. But for those who want long-term relationships with residents and families, this is it.

The nurses have a team with them of LPNs and PSW, they manage the floor to make sure that everything is ok and provide care like vital sign, wound care, medication, mental assessment, admissions, palliative care...

    Thanks for showing all the opportunities out there. I hope the nurses who are starting out really think about the most important member of the team- the patient- as I am reading a lot of comments on how much nursing "sucks, etc?? There are a lot of opportunities, but before you jet off to work at a resort, or any other nursing option, take the time to really learn the profession, and how to BE a nurse. With COVID 19, my mantra of "everything begins with Med/Surg bedside nursing", was shown to be accurate in spades!!! Some of the craziest, beast-mode, like being at a war front, terrific nursing ever seen at my, and other hospitals!!!
    In the pause, I encouraged nurses who had never seen or done the things they had to do, to be proud, and to take the experience for what it is. Now the confidence level and appreciation for the job is palpable, even on tough nights. Nothing bothers or throws them off kilter now!! Kudos to all nurses out there and be safe!! No matter what type of nursing you decide to do, remember that you represent ALL of us. Corny, maybe, but true.
