    Overwork and underpaid is right. People who have never worked on the floor will never understand and I’m sick of everyone else saying that nurses make too much money. As MS nurse, I used to get anywhere from 8-10 pts, it was horrific. Left bedside and have not missed it

    • @NurseJanetG
      @NurseJanetG  3 роки тому

      I agree! I don't understand that either. For the amount of work that is done, the compensation should definitely be a tad bit more IMO!

    I love your transparency! I didn't go the "typical" bedside route...and it's nice to see another nurse in our cohort go another direction with their career! Great video!

    Hi. I can identify with the 11:00 discharge time....we sometimes don’t even get a d/c order until 10:30....then pharmacy has to review meds, teaching to be done and HOPEFULLY transport is coming in less than 30 mins that day. I have been a bedside nurse for almost 28 years and I get the need to get patients out in a timely manner, but why do people who don’t work on the units write nursing policy?

    • @NurseJanetG
      @NurseJanetG  3 роки тому +1

      This is the best thing I’ve read! You are so right! Nurses who have worked the floor should be writing these policies, maybe we wouldn’t be so burned out 😕

    I work nights on a Neuro floor (stroke and spine pts with a mix of Ned surg) our ratio is 7 to 1 - sometimes 8. It’s beyond exhausting and stressful. Aesthetic nursing has been something I’ve thought about for a while. Your videos have been super helpful!

    Just started as an assistant nurse (still in nursing school) and am already thinking I don't want to do bedside nursing....it's a lot of abuse both physical and mental and the environment is so understaffed and high stress. I feel like I'm gonna burn out.

      I finished watching the video and the whole thing about hospitals feeling like a business and the politics/hierarchy behind is what always put me off of nursing. I initially wanted to be a nurse and did other things to get my foot in the door and observe from a distance and LAWD did I realize I could NOT handle that. Nurses really are often under appreciated and it's like they get all the s*** from every angle of it. Your words at the end of the video about overcoming that fear really hit me though, and even as an aspiring IO psychologist (not a nurse), this was very relatable and gave me hope!

    Hi! I’ll be graduating nursing school in June and I’m considering aesthetics but I also want to at least try bed side first. Do you think a different unit could have been different for you? Maybe L&D or being an OR nurse? Also... do you think it’s more common for a nurse in aesthetics to make more than bedside or it just depends on where you work and your effort you put into it?
    I’ve been hearing it’s difficult to find a doctor that’s willing to give a nurse a shot at injections.

    • @NurseJanetG
      @NurseJanetG  4 роки тому +2

      this is a GREAT question! I think about that A LOT! I guess I will never know lol. I can't speak to other states, but I have a general idea on what different hospitals pay new grad nurses vs more seasoned nurses. In my opinion, the actual hourly rate in aesthetics is higher BECAUSE you aren't there for 12 plus hours and you can work the same 3 days. I think aesthetics has more potential if you get to the top vs bedside nursing it takes years to be seasoned and work your way to the top.
      I am sorry it is difficult :( have you tried finding a med spa that does lasers? injections?
