    Thanks so much for watching this video! I seem to have spark a fire. My intentions always on this channel is to show my experience good, bad or ugly and nursing is not a bed of roses, trust me! I have a lot of stories I could tell, I was actually gonna take this out of my video bc a similar situation happened to me before and I recorded it and edited it out of the vlog, but I wanted to share this. Giving someone a hard time for doing their job is NEVER ok! rude comments, the staring up and down and that perplex look on some faces. I always think to myself that person is just so shocked that I am a NP! Welp continue to be shocked! 😏 One 💚

    GIRL, the rudeness of some nurses is just so unreal! I have an NP at my hospital that is always so rude and snarky to me specifically for no reason at all, but so nice to everyone else. I've just come to realize (which I'm sure you have too) is that if people want to be rude and nasty all the time, they are the issue! You just keep your head held high and continue to do your job, because you're awesome at it! I'd kill for a great NP like you at my hospital.

    To be quite honest, I believe some nurses are just envious/jealous that you are in that role. The fact that you are black only adds fuel to the fire. Before I left my last job, I emailed all the nurses telling them how I was leaving to pursue my FNP degree. One of my co workers flat out told me, “the grass isn’t greener on the other side” then processed to walk out the door without any words of congratulations to me. During one of my clinical rotations, a patient asked if I was training to be an LPN. Ummm...why would you ASSume that when you clearly see that I am here with the FNP? If I got a penny for every time I was mistaken for a CNA or the like (no shade), I’d be a millionaire 🙄. *end rant*

    • @bluefamily3937
      @bluefamily3937 3 роки тому +6

      I understand your frustrated when patients assume you're a CNA or an LPN...but I urge you to reframe it. The patients who say that can only see your gentle humility. (Perhaps they're throwing shade, but since you are intelligent and know how hard you work, you can't assume that..so think it's only the best comments!) You don't put on airs of superiority and did what's what effort you've put in towards your degree! Hear it as a compliment instead.

    • @LovelyGlow01
      @LovelyGlow01 3 роки тому +46

      We should never
      reframe a thought or belief that someone being rude is a compliment, because it is not. It is poor behavior that reflects what is going on inside the rude perso. We should never think that allowing someone to be rude to us is providing therapy to them because it is the opposite. It actually has the potential to promote more rude and uncalled for behavior. Staying professional was the best move in that situation. Going to HR or management with repeated offenses would frame better as therapy for a person like her. It could give her a look at her actions and possibly guide her toward managing her reactions better or it could actually lead her to therapy to get the help she needs. We can't encourage such behavior. And nurses have to stop eating their young as well as their peers. It is enough.

      @@bluefamily3937 Hello! Just to clarify, the issue is deeper than just someone thinking I am a CNA or an LPN. I had an interview recently & when I got to the job, the secretary said, “you must be interviewing for the LPN position.” I told her that I was here for the RN position. She repeated,”Oh, the LPN position.” My issue has been that people automatically assume, because of my race, that I must be a CNA or an LPN. This happens to me so frequently as well to my sister who is a nurse as well.

    • @LovelyGlow01

People have bad days and good days. I am an ICU nurse (ICU nurses are extremely critical and analytical, which is why they work in the ICU). Sometimes I'm rude and sometimes not. I never once felt like I was being mistreated for my color. That is so small minded in my opinion. She is a NP and she is making it. No one tried holding her back or succeeded at it so why the fuss?

Currently working on my Prereqs for nursing with the hopes of getting into the nursing program fall of 2021 here in Maryland. Plan to follow up with my BSN and the hopes of becoming a Pediatric Primary Care NP. April 12th 2020 I lost my 2 year old little boy to a tragic accident so now I use that tragedy as fuel to push through school, to learn all that I’ll need to know when it comes to caring for my patients, and to wear a WHITE COAT proudly such as yourself!

I wish you all the luck and I am so humbled by your words towards me. When I made this channel I really wanted to show everyone that it can be done. Good luck to you FUTURE NP!!

When I just started i got some push back when I would jump in and help the nurses more patients, comfort patients while they fell asleep under anesthesia, help clean the rooms with the hospital attendants, pretty much just be helpful, and do my job. I had a fellow Surg Tech tell me that what I'm doing is not my job, or I've had people ask me why I'm doing those things, and I've had nurses give me dirty looks because I'm cleaning the rooms and mopping the floors. First off the faster we get the OR clean the faster we get the next case in, second move an go whe! Nuh come tell me what I should and shouldn't be doing, why don't you just come help. I hate how nurses and other staff treat people. It's sickening. and it's some of the same duty rude people that keep asking me to join their team. I just ignore dem and cuss dem in my mind lol.

    Okay so it’s not just us little people (I’m a tech) that they are rude to!!! Reading these comments is blowing my mind. What is it with the ICU nurses? Anytime I get assigned ICU I have to mentally prepare myself. They are just uppity, selfish, snobs at my hospital. Not looking forward to being in that unit, but CRNA requires the time in a cc unit 😬

    Hi Laurie! This is my first video on your channel and WOW! You are such an inspiration and I aspire to be in your shoes one day- I’m a nurse right now on a Med/Surg/Tele floor and I’ve been a nurse for almost a year and half and I just applied to FNP school. I also started off as a CNA and seeing you achieve your NP degree is amazing! Keep up the amazing work! ❤️❤️ Also, I’m sorry you had to deal with mean/rude nurses- unfortunately as nurses we find ourselves in these situations often. As nurses we should always be uplifting one another, not putting each other down.

    I am so sorry that ICU nurse was inappropriate to you. But perhaps you can reframe that snarky comment for yourself. Perhaps you can take pride in your skills of empathetic listening and you were merely providing free counseling to that disgruntled ICU nurse who was so rude. It's not your fault you've advanced your career and she feels stuck and unheard and underappreciated. So you just gave her so free impromptu therapy....I love your videos... thanks for the continued motivation.

    So I’ve been looking for a NP to do Day in the Life, who looks like me and does hospital. I found you and I’m so glad. So as a “retired” ICU nurse I never understood the I only listen to the Dr, when we have tons of NPs on our services especially at night. But most likely it’s the second reason why she acted like a donkey rear-end. But usually when I get that I flip on them and start acting really concerned and scared FOR her “are you ok? Are you ill? You look flushed. I was only asking who the nurse was and if you can at least overhead call him to the desk please. But feel better.” Also, Caribbean dreame peppermint tea is my favorite! ❤️ ❤❤

Making a phone call to consultants and family member already take that 18 minutes already. No wonder why you left np job to become traveling nurse. You definitely overworked.

    yall will hate this but here it goes...So when there is an "open" ICU, often the NP who is on the primary team rounding on their pts they are just coming around, for the most part, to maybe just....order some labs and write notes. Thats why, in part, the ICU nurses are dismissive of a NPs is because the nurses know that the ICU docs run the show and not the primary team phsycian yet alone the NPs! Icu docs are the ones that either yell/praise them for doing their job so they are focused on exucuting their orders.
