Wow she is so well spoken and descriptive in answering the questions and it is easy to really comprehend and understand what she is expressing. I can tell she was an amazing RN. This really helps confirm that I want to be a nurse, specifically L&D nurse, when I’m older! Great video!🤗
I really enjoyed watching this and thought her responses were great. I think often there's this unnecessary divide in the healthcare system because of personal feelings towards other professions. And there doesn't need to be. The discussion about which profession is more important is irrelevant because all professions are contingent upon each other. You cannot have a doctor without a nurse. Or a nurse without a doctor. This same principle is applicable to Pharmacists, Dentists, Paramedics, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Nutritionists, Radiographers etc. The list is so endless. It really is down to your own personal preference. It's like, I may like Football and you may like Basketball. One's not really better than the other? Thanks for appreciating national nurses week!
Ayanah Ali I’m happy you liked the video! I agree, everyone in the team is very important and has their role in providing patients the best overall healthcare. Without one provider there would be a gap in healthcare since nowadays there’s just so much to address and not enough time or resources for just one person. No problem, nurses are so important but often underappreciated!
this is the best video on this topic I've seen yet. I'm in my senior year of undergrad deciding which path to take, so this is very helpful. thank you!
Incredible interview. She is inspiring, honest, and presents nursing in the most articulate way. Thanks for sharing this. Could you share her name and school?
@@brobinson960 a standard requirement. whether you need an associates or bachelors as a minimum requirement to become an RN. Also the type of schooling whether online, hybrid, or in person. Theres just a lot of gray areas. compared to the path of becoming a physician. you have to finish a bachelors, med school, then residency. no exceptions. and also no such thing as online schools
@@adaezenjoku7527 not really. I mean some hospitals are making a bachelors degree a requirement, but a lot are still accepting associate level training. The only specialty in nursing that are making the most progress, in terms of setting a strict nationwide standard, are CRNAs; doctorate degree will be required.
Salaam and Ramadan Mubarak Adnan great to see you again Ma shaa Allah , I haven’t received any notification from you lately so I was wondering if you didn’t vlog lately anyway Alhamdulillah wonderful interview I must admit ❤️♥️
Tank you for sharing idea for what the possible for I have to be when I'm focus and take your guidelines. Ma'am and sir tank you for this kindly a beatiful and freat opputunity I'm happy to share your kindness and concern that people have idea to know na mayroon parang natitirang mga katulad niyo.but ma'am I'm happy for business industry i ll try it last year but my self happiness is for about business career. But I will support for the tools and aplication and hospital infrastructure designing and management
I am still contemplating whether nursing is the best path first. I know pre-med is a track. Nursing is major. I keep seeing that pre-med is better for students who want to prepare for the MCAT/medical school. I have always wanted to become an anesthesiologist since middle school. I am 21 and I just want to feel situated and relieved. I changed my major to nursing 3 times. I am now doing pre-med at a community college for an associate in science and feel a lot more relieved, but not all the way. I am afraid I will regret nursing first because it will give me a job after school. and let me know whether I am capable of going to medical school. I have looked into CRNA and it's not the path I want. I know if I go to med school I will be in debt. Any advice.
I’d shadow both as much as possible and try to research everything about both paths (finances, time commitment, lifestyle sacrifices, etc.) and then make your decision. If becoming an anesthesiologist is truly your dream then it will be worth the extra debt and other sacrifices (missing out on a lot of youth, free time, big events, etc) you’ll make to become one. If not, nursing is still a great career depending on what you want to do. The logistics allow you to have a better lifestyle especially when you’re younger, it allows you to get to work sooner, you have many opportunities like opening a med spa or becoming an np and working primary care, etc. 21 isn’t old, but I understand the urge to feel stable and get your life in order. That instability is one of the downsides of becoming a doctor, but the hope we have is that over the long term it’ll pay off. I hope something here helped, or if not, feel free to ask more questions!
Adnan A Thank you so much for your advice. I feel that I need to purse my ultimate goal. I job shadowed an Anesthesiologist when I was in high school and remember everything he told me. I enjoyed it so much and if that’s the career I want I will directly take the path there. Thank you. Honestly I don’t see my self doing anything else, but Anesthesia. Thank you again! 🙏🏻
This is great. There are so many different types of nurses and people are constantly furthering their education in it. I was looking at information on Nurse anesthetists vs anesthesiologists. Very interesting to see how nursing is constantly growing. 🏥 BTW...the computer screen...lol....it looks like what is on the screen gets smaller and then larger with the two angles lol.
@@DrAdnan 😂😂...Dr. Ad, brother I thought I was trippin looking at that screen...I was like what is going on with the size of that white window or whatever it is. I guess it's the nurse effect.
Salam ?? Can u suggest me something I am really very confused for... I am a foreigner pursuing MEDICINE interested in taking admission in one of the universities of canada for UNDERGRAD.. I just qualified high school with B grade. Understand my situation like I am a foreigner but I am moving to canada to be a PERMANENT RESIDENT not international.. so what requirements should a undergrad college need for e.g.. IELTS, SAT, GMAT(general management aptitude test) or GRE ( GRADUTE RECORD EXAM) For sure I 'll be the domestic student of canada in couples of month.. I will take admission for UNDERGRAD so do I need these some requirements which are the most imp ?
سلام, I’d recommend you talk to your prehealth/premed advisor at whatever university you attend in Canada, but for med school you’d need to take an MCAT exam usually after your first two years (and score well), have a competitive gpa, and have a good mix of extracurriculars. You’d also need to do all the prerequisite classes for med school (check med school websites or the MSAR for specific US med school requirements). Then you’d apply for med school at the end of your third year if you want to start med school right after undergrad, or apply at the end of fourth year if you’d like a gap year before med school starts. The application process takes about a year from when applications open for submission. For US med schools that’s the AMCAS. Idk what the application service/s are for Canada (there might be different ones for different regions).

Incredible interview. She is inspiring, honest, and presents nursing in the most articulate way. Thanks for sharing this. Could you share her name and school?
Thank you, and I agree- she’s great. She’s Dr. Ackerman at UC Davis
@@DrAdnan Much appreciated.
The field of nursing needs to set a consistent set of training and educational standard.
Gonzalo Militar I’m not sure how standardized it is currently, but I’m sure progress will be made over time!
Gonzalo Militar what do you mean?
For the most part, at the RN level, it does. At the NP level not so much

Diff long term input and output, and types of care
