Sitting at work listening to this and already sent it to ALL my nurse friends and ladies on the unit working tonight. I don't think you realize how important and how much we appreciate this. We go through HELL, but are expected to take it because it's in our "job" description. I'm one of those leaving the bedside when I graduate. We can't take the unsafe ratios and beatings anymore while working for facilities that would rather come after our license or even see us serve jail time rather than take responsibility for not staffing appropriately.
my buddy use to be a paramedic, his worst things were putting buddies of his in body bags from car accidents. that was one of his first calls on the job too. also kids, especially knowing the parents. been almost 15 yrs since he done that and would never go back.
Im a current ICU nurse. It’s unfortunate but a lot of us were abused in one way or another and have childhood trauma. This trauma allows us to develop a deep empathy for others which is why we develop a strong desire to go into healthcare and help others. This path can be a double-edged sword. Caring for others can be healing, but it can also stir up old wounds, especially if the work triggers unresolved trauma. That’s why it’s so crucial for healthcare workers who’ve been through trauma to prioritize self-care and lean on their support systems. CNAs and nurse deserve more. We are on the frontlines. I don’t think people quite understand how bad the nursing shortage is and is only going to get worse until things change. Great podcast!
A nurse practitioner is not an equivalent to an MD (doctor) as you said. Also, there are many other roles for a registered nurse than at the bedside. You ARE supervised by physician.
NP can have PhDs but to be supervisor by an MD means you’re not at an MD level. You’re similar to a PA. Some of my gas. Providers have been NPs and PAs. They give you more time and are typically more personable. Also for roles, I think it’s more so not bedside in hospital. Tons of outpatient nurse roles, sports medicine. school nurse, public health nurse, visiting nurse, nurses that work in health insurance, nurses can be mental health therapists, also universe instructors, also nurses work for health tech companies…tons of different roles.
Depends on state. NPs can operate alone without supervision of MD. I would never be an NP though. Same responsibilities as MD without the pay and people will always say you’re not an MD
Whatttttt. NP does NOT equal MD/DO. Both roles are vital, but nowhere near the same. MDs/DOs have to undergo a minimum of 7 years of training (med school + residency) + numerous qualification exams before they can independently practice, whereas NP training typically requires only 3 years of training in totality. No residency or subspecialty training. And it’s not just the length of training, but also the rigorousness of MD/DO training that differentiates a physician from a mid-level practitioner. Add to that the critically different amount and nature of the responsibilities between the two groups of providers, and anyone could see that these groups are definitely not the same.
To that oxygen question ghe interviewer asked, I'd like to expound on that a little. The "we breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide" comment he made was true, but only partially. We breathe in oxygen, yes. But also carbon dioxide, as well as some other gases like nitrogen, argon, and other trace gases). When breathing out, we also breathe out those aforementioned gases, just at different concentrations. Oxygen, for example, goes like this: we typically breathe in 21% oxygen, and exhale about 16% oxygen. Meaning that we use a small portion of the oxygen that we breathe in, and waste most of it. So, in the cases of a person manually breathing into an unconscious person, we are supplying them with more than enough oxygen to circulate the body's system. (Of course, we are also blowing out a higher concentration of carbon dioxide as well. But that doesn't negate the oxygen going in.)
@@Jaesinghnot the same responsibilities. Easier/bread and butter cases, predictable hours, less or no call, less liability (meaning legally seen as responsible for less), etc. Also less educated in medicine, no significant clinical training in diagnosis and treatment (no residency equivalent)… no, bedside experience (while valuable) is not the same as residency/fellowship. Plenty of great NPs, but they aren’t the same
@@mogamethanuyou’re making a lot of assumptions with nothing to back it up. All I said was “same responsibilities”. Not all NPs are the same. There are rural places where NPs practice as sole providers for the elderly or family without supervision of an MD or any involvement of an MD. Not going to medical school or residency makes this job harder, not easier. The NP has to really on their experience and their own resourcefulness, They don’t get to choose their cases and they are legally responsible and have to have malpractice insurance. They are not “equivalent”, they have to do the same job with less pay and less prestige. An NP with experience will always override a green MD, plain and simple
Of course she doesn't believe there is something after even science can't explain. Shell find out ine day. Theres a neuroscientist that was an athiest until he doed had zero brain activity and saw it now he believes so to each his own but id rather be on the side of faith.❤

I think it’s great that you are doing what’s best for you. It’s tough to leave but you have to protect your mental health. 🙏🏻

Big on this!! I left bedside and my quality of life improved immediately

Great pod Mark! As always ❤

Everyone always says there are lots of other jobs a nurse can do other than bedside.
Could you please list 10 or 15 of them?

Why do you use TikTok for information
No, a nurse practitioner (NP) is not a medical doctor
Right, what an odd thing to say that she is equivalent to a Dr.
Same responsibilities

The interviewer was unprepared with his questions and seemed disinterested.
You tweakin
Right, I felt the same
