    💥-Be Proactive Not Reactive! Be prepared ahead of time for anything! Ensure that your rooms are stocked and ready for business. Suction? Oxygen? Ambu Bags? Pulse oximetry? Cardiac monitor leads? Bp cuff? Do you know where your IV supplies are? Is the crash cart readily available? Is your glucometer ready for business?
    💥-Team Work Makes the Dream Work! The Emergency Department is dynamic, if you don't work as a team, you will not succeed. Help each other and have fun at the same time. Remember, its One Team.
    💥-You will not know everything, EVER, and that's ok! This specifically applies to new grads! Ask questions, lots of them! If everyone is super busy, wait until patients are stabilized, then ask away! The more you know, the more confident you'll be, and at the same time you'll realize how much you actually don't know. So, ask more questions.
    💥-Charting is extremely important! HOWEVER, patient care ALWAYS comes before charting! Take notes on a piece of paper as the what is happening with times, then when you do get a chance to sit down, chart away. But don't forget, patient care comes above anything else.

    ✅Answer to the question of the day✅
    -The patient is in metabolic acidosis, therefore, tries to compensate with respiratory alkalosis, in other words, breaths very fast and deep. If we intubate, we are unable to match their respiratory rate and tidal volume with the ventilator, and therefore, are keeping Co2 in the body, leading to an increase in acidosis inside the patient. Also, while intubating, patients go acidotic from the lack of breathing during the intubation (they are paralyzed right), and since they are already acidotic, what is adding more of it going to do? Shut the whole system down......

    Thank you for these videos! I’ve watched so many. I’m not an ER Nurse but a step down one for years and I find that knowing all this information is beneficial no matter where you are. Hoping to go to ICU soon.

    I have a question!
    I have seen a nurse kept a patient sedated while she was on a bi-pad. Unfortunately, the patient died!
    What would you do if you were that nurse?
