I am an RN. I was a corpsman. I would say it's better to be a civilian rn just because of nursing ethics and how following military orders may conflict.
I was a civilian prior to joining and will say that there is a fine line that is crossed regularly as a civilian that isn't crossed in the military. that is, practicing outside of your scope. Nursing ethics will always be a point of contention anywhere you work. Military orders you need to discern when to say something. I've been written up so many times protecting a patient, has there been any repercuss? none, because i have always protected the patient regardless of rank or orders. That is where you as a nurse need to be level headed and strong to speak out when taking orders. I see your point, but regarding protection of license I would rather practice in the military right now with the high litigation rates going on in the civilian sector.
first upload in years, welcome back... come a long way from nursing vlogs in pi
Been doing bedside and travel and considering joining the air force reserve, your vlog is so helpful Kuya, thank you!:)
Thanks bro u give me something to think about, been watching you since 2013
omg haha that's about 10 years! i'm surprised you're still around. I only really produce videos when i'm motivated or inspired. I'm glad that you are still around to have seen the progress of this whole career.
@@genesis.kts_ of course bro i hope your doing fine
Brother thanks for sharing your experience man. Currently working civilian ICU nurse, working on my CCRN! You make a good point getting tripled in ICU sucks man and I feel like they do it us every week here. I really want to do a full 20 with the navy or airforce. You got some advice on what to expect with the process of applying???
what is your time line for trying to join?
About 6 months to a year from now, gonna take my ccrn next month and talk to a recruiter, then hope for the best lol
Thinking about joining because I heard their ICU training is top notch. I got a civilian ICU job right after graduating, but the training is so lackluster and I don't feel confident in my practice. Already 8 mos in out of a 2 year contract.
When I join, will I be put in ICU right away or can I request to start all the way from the med surg and get trained all the way back up to ICU
ICU. I advise EVERYONE who comes in to get their CCRN first to solidify their contracts.
Hi bro, Kris here we talked over Messenger, Thanks for the info. the ability to call out and go on vacation whenever I want which I can get on travel nursing or PRN is a big reason why I am 50/50 on going to the force. will keep on following your vlogs maybe I can pickup something that will encourage me aside from job security,
thank you Brother
the air force isn't for the weak. you either give it your all or none. the mindset of calling out is weak minded with certain exceptions to family and emergency situations. there's a reason why you do all rhr shit you need to do now before going active because it is a commitment and you either go all the way or stay in the same place.
Understood, I am just reflecting about what you said, see you soon Capt.
That last part worries me. If acuity is truly not that bad then if I did military nursing right out of school and go into civilian after - would I even be prepared anymore since it’s not anywhere near as hard.
Would it be safe? Or pose an large issue?
I don't see it as an issue because most nurses end up going back to a department of defense job. they really do train you well, however everyone has their own level of hard. not all civilian jobs are hard, but icu is hads in general. it will all depend on what you want out of your career andnlong term goals.
I’m interested in joining. I graduated nursing school in 2019. I started out in oncology medsurg/tele floor. I’m an OR circulator at the moment but want to do ICU next. If I were to get accepted, is there a chance I could get trained for ICU? Also, do they float you to an area you don’t have experience in?
I would go in and negotiate icu. they will send you to the icu 4 month course at bamc. you can do that, or come in as or and then apply to icu program after 2 years on post.
Sir if i may ask, I am foreign grad (nursing) and been trying to pass the nclex but until now im unable to do so :( , which is so frustrating and quite expensive if you asked me. I'm very much interested in AIRFORCE joining as a nurse but because i still didn't pass nclex im holding off. I also didn't have any experience here in the US coz i have to pass the test 1st before i can even work as one. I do have experience outside of the US thou but i dont think that counts. What do you think can be my option in joining the airforce? Is being a enlisted okay? Will that also give me an experience as a nurse in the field whenever i get to the civilian world. I've been holding off for the past 2 years and i thought ill get over it already but i keep on looking to sign in. Hope you can spare sometime. Thank you sir!
Be careful of joining as an enlisted man. You will feel frustrated from being forced to work and live as an inferior person. Rank is overwhelming. But in wartime front line situations, you will be assigned your professional level, at least on the job.
How many hours of work outside your 3 shifts a week do you put in for officer/military duties? Thanks so much
it depends on the duties you are given, the higher you climb in your rank the more you will actually get away from bedside and start to do leadership things. I would say on averge 4-8 hours a week and it's not bad because you get compensated well through the down time you experience. Wouldn't trade it for anything else at this point since i've already done civilian nursing. If you wanna know more connect with me on IG @genesis.kts_
Omg 4 to 1 in medsurge? Where I’m at (TN), always 7 to 1
Come on over to the air force ;)
Goals
Hi Im a foreign educated Bsn Nurse how can I become a us navy nurse?
you need a masters from the states.
What’s deployment like?
Honestly, I haven't done an overseas deployment yet, however. From what I have done with the covid missions, it was stressful. It depends on the deployment. I've heard that there are deployments like kuwait thatare fun.
@@genesis.kts_ deployment is the only thing making me question joining. Do you mind if I message you privately? I have a lot of questions about small stuff that i cant find online lol
@emilyosborne2139 yes I'm either on Instagram @genesis.kts_ or genesisantos@gmail.com
Are there alot of male nurses there in ur unit?
yes lol
If I go in for 5 week officer class, will they make you shave your head for that ?
nahhh. They're less strict with officers haha.
Im also icu nurse going af. Where are u stationed?
can't say where im stationed on here for OPSEC. lets just say it's one of the bigger MTFS.
@@genesis.kts_ of course. But let me ask you this sir since i have trouble finding the latest info: what af mtf’s actually have icu’s? I see san antonio, travis, wright-patterson, eglin. Anywhere else?
@@guitarhamster102 san antonio. travis, nellis, keesler, wright patterson, langly, walter reed. With ccatt hawaii, germany, alaska. ICU can lead to leadership so giving you more opportunity to do other things.
