Day In the Life of an Urgent Care Nurse Practitioner - Spend the day with me!

Hi, my name is Sara and I'm a Family Nurse Practitioner working in the Urgent Care. Spend the day at the Urgent Care with me! The day started out slow, but it definitely picked up. Enjoy!

Love how in depth your videos are in showing the experience working in this profession. Really is so helpful and interesting for someone approaching the start of nursing school 😊

Thanks for your feedback and thanks so much for watching!!

I found another fellow black NP I can subscribe to 🩷 I’m a new FNP starting off in LTC but I’d love
To try out urgent care in the coming years
What I love about your videos is that it’s actually educational. Not all glamor.

Love your videos! Confirming Urgent Care is for me

[@accordingtosara5491]

So glad they're helpful! I was so scared of the urgent care, but it's not bad at all! Thanks for watching

Great jobs, sis!! My urgent care experience was a great learning experience but the volume was overwhelming for a new provider. I have transferred to Nutrition Support. I’m enjoying this better because the volume is shared with 4 to 5 other co workers.

@@ronif.3750 Yea, urgent care will have you breaking a sweat 😂 How do you like Nutrition Support?

[@ronif.3750]

@@accordingtosara5491I like Nutrition Support but I’m still learning the different patient population. Continued success!!

omg i loved this so much

[@kellyhanson140]

i ran across your videos randomly and find it fun to watch. I always ask my ARPN to prescribe me diflucan if i am put on antibiotics.. its nice to not have to call back and be like hey i need this and wait while i'm extremely uncomfortable.

[@accordingtosara5491]

Exactly! I like to save patients the time & just send it in when they request it. Thanks for watching!

[@cdeme001]

I love your videos im not sure if you have a place where you stated this but what resources do you
recommend and did you take a skills course or learned on the job ?

[@accordingtosara5491]

Thank you! My favorite resources are UpToDate, the book "Minor Emergencies - Splinters to fractures", & the EMRA antibiotic guide. I used UA-cam to teach myself all of the hands on skills. I didn't take any sort of skills course

[@lizzy5437]

Do you have to work overtime a lot?

[@accordingtosara5491]

Never! They request me to work overtime often, but I only pick up when I want. It’s never required
