You know thats crazy I don't get it. Like it was not easy to get there. Especially when you have prof that don't give a shit and they don't have no compassion of failing the whole classroom. Let's talk about that as well. Bs. Some they do care most of them don't. Is a business while you are in school.
I made a presentation about burn out syndrome with nurses for my final school project. I did not expect to become my own presentation when I started. I still cry and never feel ashamed to talk about it.
For me as a nurse, I haven't cried yet, but I've had moments after work and driving home feeling stupid for a mistake I've made or being called out on something I needed to do but was not aware of it. There were times I wanted to quit, but I still give it chances along the way. Now after being a nurse for over a year and still going, I have those moments less and not as severe as before, and I have more confidents in myself.
I had the wife of a patient that was dying of cancer call me out into the hallway once. As the door closed behind us, she turned toward me and started bawling. Nothing I could do but put my hand on her shoulder and cry with her. That's been about three years ago. Still remember it like it was yesterday.
I also had the mindset to "just stick it out" when I started as a new grad, since everyone was telling me that. What they didn't tell me is what's the normal amount of overwhelm and what's not. I started on medsurg, then transferred to neuro because it was closer to where I live to cut down on commute. Sticking it out destroyed me mentally and physically (was forced to stay home several months due to severe burnout). I didn't work a year in inpatient, I transferred to dialysis as soon as the opportunity came up and I've never been more satisfied with my career choice. While I agree that the first months are tough, sometimes it's good to just admit if something isn't working out for you - if you cry during or after almost every shift you have, do NOT stick it out! There's so many better environments to work in, it shouldn't take that much of a toll on you. At my old workplace the BEST day I had was a 1:9 ratio. Most of the time I was working 1:12 to even 1:16 on several occasions for weeks on end, mostly with satellite patients who belonged to other specialties like ortho (I live and work in Sweden btw, not US). Now on dialysis I have 1:2, sometimes 1:3 if someone calls in sick, but that's rare. I never knew I could finish all my tasks on my to-do list during my shift, that's not something I've experienced before. And I KNOW my patients in and out! It might not be ideal for an adrenaline junkie who likes emergency medicine for example, but it fits me quite nicely. It feels validating that I can deal with any situation without a hundred call light going off at the same time, and give the patient who's in distress all my attention without neglecting at least 9 other people. A big plus is also that everyone goes home at the end of the day, so no worries about handovers and such.
if its patient ratio maybe the ICU would be a good place? I just graduated but haven't been licensed yet, but i hope to work there. Could you tell me more about it?
Wow thank you so much for your reply. I needed to read this. I’m a new grad working in a level 1 trauma ER and I’m miserable. My nursing friends tell me to stick it out a year but I honestly can’t. I’ve been there 3 months and I cry on my way home because of being overwhelmed and in situations where I just know it’s not for me. I’m also having a hard time disconnecting from work when I’m home because of the anxiety and anticipation. I’ve already increased my anxiety meds since starting and I know deep down It’s not for me. 😢
When Sara makes a video and it makes you cry because this is all legit! I’m not a new nurse, but a new critical care nurse. It’s a whole new world from med Surg. You need the right training and the right staff for help. Unfortunately there are bullies wherever you go. When do you decide to throw in the towel?
Been there. Being new is so tough. Having a supportive team and a good manager makes all the difference. You have to have a good nurse friend that understands and can listen and guide you through. We will make it!
I’ve used your videos throughout my entirety of nursing school, and now that I’ve become a nurse I find myself crying at this video bc I’m experiencing severe anxiety from work. I’ve been off work for weeks due to feeling overwhelming anxiety and depression and I don’t know for how much longer I can stick it out
I really appreciate this video. I am a graduate nurse in an operating theatre, and came home after a tearful day at work. Your videos helped me get through my nursing degree, so hearing your familiar voice again in this video at a time when I needed comfort and reassurance was very helpful!
Thank you so much.... I am a single mother to two, was away from my nursing work for 5+ years due to personal issues. But now that I have two lives to cater, I need to work again which is going to be a new beginning for me .... because it's been long since I haven't been in touch and moreover, lack of self-confidence just is not allowing me to take the first step... but this video of yours took me to my early days of my working days.... very relatable . And I decided, I am going to do it... no matter how much I fall because I have faced too much physical,mental and emotional abuses all these 5years. Once again, thank you immensely ...
This was so perfect for me today! Thank you! I am 4 months off orientation as a new nurse and feelings of being overwhelmed is an understatement! I realize I am improving only when I see newer nurses going through the stresses I no longer have. This makes me want to hang in there.
Thank you so much for this video Sarah! I really , really needed this video today! I walked out of work feeling completely defeated today! I cried a total of 3 times !!! I truly did want to quit because I was just so overwhelmed! Luckily, my co-workers are so supportive ! I’m very blessed in that sense. But glad to know that I’m not the only one feeling this way.
We all have been through it and some of us still are going through difficulties and overwhelm at work. You are not alone ! And you will be just fine. ❤
I've failed as a new nurse this year. I quit my hospital job within 6 months and I just hated it and couldn't do it anymore. I lost so much weight it became dangerous for me and now I just don't know what to do. I'm currently working in the community but want to go back into the hospital to try a different area but I'm worried no one will take me with no experience
I'm sorry you went through that, but they are so many routes that you can do. Try to work outpatient or go back to school for Nursing informatics. That's what I actually want to do. Keep your head high and don't give up. Life is too precious
Remember, there are other places to work other than a hospital. I didn’t like hospital nursing at all. There are sooo many other places and opportunities as a nurse other than “bedside” nursing.
Please don't underestimate yourself. You are brave for not tolerating an unhealthy working environment. I went thru something similar as you and quit at 7 months...I got a job no problem in a NICU/Mother Baby and do enjoy it
Wonderful as always! Can you do a video about identifying burnout in nurses and when it’s time to change specialty vs leave nursing? Been an RN for the last 3.5 years (lots of COVID-tainted times) and struggling with having passion for the career I worked so hard to get.
So I just graduated nursing school in May and I went right into work in dialysis and I recently quit because it was a horrible experience! The people were mean and by people I mean co workers . They were constantly belittling me and now I have no confidence!
I sadly have the same experience. However as awful your coworkers may be, remember that no human is worthless. Those people have just taught you how to never behave towards a new nurse or a nurse student. Remember that and you will become a great nurse. Now you need to take care of yourself instead of trying to please ungrateful people. Ask yourself what kind of job you want after this? Is it a job with a long introduction and patientence with new nurses? Is it a simple job that even a dumb ape can accomplish with no introduction?.. I mean such a job may give you nice references that you can use when you later on look for a job that you actually want. Or perhaps you want a job at a healthcare service unit where you do easier tasks as a beginner and do not have to sacrifice all your social life and free time for the sake of your job? Or maybe you still want to work at a hospital, but work a place with a slower inflow and outflow of patients so you do not have to feel extreme stress, and your coworkers will not be so stressed out that they will grow inpatient and angry on you but instead have time to answer all your questions?
I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I also work in dialysis with only a year under my belt as a nurse and I think it's a wonderful specialty. Bad leadership and toxic colleagues are a nightmare that can ruin anything. You are not worthless or bad at all! I hope you find another center if you want to stay in this lane, or a specialty that suits you more if dialysis is tainted forever for you. Regardless of your choice, maybe ask them if you can shadow for a day before accepting a job offer from the place, I did that too. It helps to get a feel for the place and the environment so you don't fall from the frying pan into the fire so to speak. I'm sure you're super talented and can get any job you set your sights on! Kidneys are missed or ignored in many other specialties so your special skills can help you even outside of dialysis.
I'm so sorry to hear that Sarah. I'm still a baby nurse and in my first semester and my clinical instructor is horrible. She is so mean and make you feel like you're stupid. She takes her frustration out on students and naps and yelled at them for little things. It makes me wanna quit too because I know that more is coming in the future, and it's not good for your health. Experienced nurses and co-workers should help each others out so that everyone can learn and become competent. They were in our shoes once, they should understand! Seriously, something needs to be done about this, so that there can be a good working environment where everyone grows and teach each others. No wonder so many are leaving nursing. I told myself that in the future when I become an experienced nurse, that I would not be like that and will help others learn. Hope you find a better job soon!
Something no one ever infirm you of until you become a nurse and start working in a field is the disruption in your confidence and the stress you have to cope with for the first 6 months to a year (depending on the field). It is so tough to be a nurse and it takes power women to become one! Im currently in my second year working at the ICU. It’s been and still is a crazy ride with mood swings and dealing with picking yourself up on your bad days. It’s literally essential to have a nurse godmother/- father 😂 at your work or even a colleague you are comfortable with to talk to about the things you’re struggling with to work through. I am grateful for my mentor who I refer to as my nurse godfather 😂 without him being there and supporting me I would’ve left a long time ago.
I just recently quit my first nursing job as a dialysis nurse. I feel horrible but they were so mean to me because I was a new nurse! I was constantly belittled and made to feel stupid! Now I don’t even want to be a nurse and am struggling to work again. Any advice on this? I really want to help people and persevere 😀
I have cried several times due to feeling inadequate and overwhelmed and I haven’t been a nurse yet 6 months and got written up because I vented to my charge nurse. I feel like there is a lot of favoritism, drama, and bullying going on and it is making me so depressed.
I started in L&D (my dream job) and I HATED IT. I was three months off orientation (6 months on the floor total) and I couldn't take it anymore. There was too much drama and hostility. I switched to M&B and I'm SO much happier. It's the same general specialty, so I get to use what I learned, but I don't have to work on that unit anymore.
In nursing school now and just finished L&D clinicals. It was wild to see how clicky all the nurses on the floor were. They acted SO prissy, almost like they were Drs making decisions.
so timely., this is mo me 😢,I’m new in my area im from NICU back in my country and now I’m in Cardiac in new country., protocols and skills, so overwhelming that makes me cry all night.. I thinks always give urself time and coping and trying and reviewing casesthat way u can cope up.still trying hard, any way thank you for this video., atleast I know what I feel is valid❤
Definitely have time hooks through the day, so by this time I need to be doing dressings or notes if I was going to complete on time. Plan in your breaks, you must take your breaks! But you might be able to divide them up in a better way for you. For instance, I take my shift breaks in 2 blocks rather than 3 as my afternoons are more hectic and I would always lose my break. So I asked if I could just have 2 breaks. Little things just help you manage. I also extend my first drug round to include checking drains, cannulas , weights, first obs etc. I just got a really good picture of my patient at the start of the shift and could raise problems early.
Time mgmt is the hardest. My goal has been 2 full assessments charted by 8. All meds passed by 10. Revisit your brain sheet and make changes. You aren’t alone!
I am Internationally educated nurse and suffering alot and waiting for getting my licensure. I started through NNAS and it took 2 years but still i was not able to write my exam.

Still waiting and waiting and its so frustrating. They need nurses so bad. Nurses are getting overwhelmed but no they would not make it easy for us to get our license here.
I'm a second year student nurse, on our duty in DR, I was able to encounter an FDU. It was really sad and I wasn't able to hold back my tears because it was the first time I encountered such happenings. I really felt bad for the mother. It's been weeks yet I can't still forget that little angel and her mother.

I was overwhelmed but what made it worse were the bullies, the experienced nurses , but don't give up

Let's talk about that as well. Bs. Some they do care most of them don't. Is a business while you are in school.
I can’t help but acknowledge every single word here. It’s so hard not to give up.
true! a lot of bully those experienced nurse in the area
yes it's the mean old nurses 90% of the time
Same goes for the experienced respiratory therapists. The ones at my job avoid and talk shit about the new guys coming in, it sucks
I made a presentation about burn out syndrome with nurses for my final school project. I did not expect to become my own presentation when I started. I still cry and never feel ashamed to talk about it.
For me as a nurse, I haven't cried yet, but I've had moments after work and driving home feeling stupid for a mistake I've made or being called out on something I needed to do but was not aware of it.

Nurses are ANGELS.
I am convinced they are.
May God bless them.

Four patients should be the limit for R.N.s with total care!
I’ve used your videos throughout my entirety of nursing school, and now that I’ve become a nurse I find myself crying at this video bc I’m experiencing severe anxiety from work.

Keep your head above💪🏾
We all have been through it and some of us still are going through difficulties and overwhelm at work. You are not alone ! And you will be just fine. ❤
Not to mention patients and or their families aggression towards nurses, particularly young women. It’s a lot to deal with
New nurse, crying every shift, questioning myself why I became a nurse
Do you feel better now? I am a new nurse you going through the same!
Thanks. I needed this. Already feeling better!
I've failed as a new nurse this year. I quit my hospital job within 6 months and I just hated it and couldn't do it anymore. I lost so much weight it became dangerous for me and now I just don't know what to do.

You could also start slowly up and work at a nursing home or a maternity ward (if that’s what you call it in the US)
I agree with what they said. You could also get a degree in Public Health to go with your Nursing degree.
So very true. But this is very real and understand that You ARE HUMAN and have Human EMOTIONs🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💙
I have been a nurse for almost 2 years and it's still very rough.
What unit are you on?
I feel like we need a video for our families to watch on how to deal with us nurses when we feel overwhelmed
Wonderful as always!
Can you do a video about identifying burnout in nurses and when it’s time to change specialty vs leave nursing?
Been an RN for the last 3.5 years (lots of COVID-tainted times) and struggling with having passion for the career I worked so hard to get.
Commenting to boost
So I just graduated nursing school in May and I went right into work in dialysis and I recently quit because it was a horrible experience! The people were mean and by people I mean co workers . They were constantly belittling me and now I have no confidence!
So sorry to hear that. Those kinds of people are toxic!

That part 👌🏾: ‘They were in your shoes once, they should understand’. So many experienced nurses forget how it feels to be a novice nurse.

Thank you! I need it as never before.
Thank you so much, it good I become informed on time so I don’t cry when it’s time, I really appreciate your videos they are very much educative to me
I just recently quit my first nursing job as a dialysis nurse. I feel horrible but they were so mean to me because I was a new nurse! I was constantly belittled and made to feel stupid! Now I don’t even want to be a nurse and am struggling to work again. Any advice on this? I really want to help people and persevere 😀
We are all extremely overwhelmed ! Hospitals are super short staffed
I have cried several times due to feeling inadequate and overwhelmed and I haven’t been a nurse yet 6 months and got written up because I vented to my charge nurse. I feel like there is a lot of favoritism, drama, and bullying going on and it is making me so depressed.
I started in L&D (my dream job) and I HATED IT. I was three months off orientation (6 months on the floor total) and I couldn't take it anymore. There was too much drama and hostility.

I thinks always give urself time and coping and trying and reviewing casesthat way u can cope up.still trying hard, any way thank you for this video., atleast I know what I feel is valid❤
I do feel this way. It’s hard.
Please talk about students ‘bullying during clinical placement
Love From INDIA Serah...🙏🙏🙏
Im so tired to be an INEN because the process in Canada it is so hard and I have not help from them it is so overwhelming I just can’t not believe it
Definitely have time hooks through the day, so by this time I need to be doing dressings or notes if I was going to complete on time. Plan in your breaks, you must take your breaks! But you might be able to divide them up in a better way for you. For instance, I take my shift breaks in 2 blocks rather than 3 as my afternoons are more hectic and I would always lose my break.

I really needed this video as I'm studying ❤️
Wow thanks for being honest ❤️
Hi dear , i saw your amazing videos recently , i wish i knew you before ,any way your are amazing teacher
Time mgmt is the hardest. My goal has been 2 full assessments charted by 8. All meds passed by 10. Revisit your brain sheet and make changes. You aren’t alone!
So like that, informatif,because nurse is human, so that if nurse have overwhelmed that is normaly,,💪💪😊😄
It's very overwhelming the transition.
I am Internationally educated nurse and suffering alot and waiting for getting my licensure. I started through NNAS and it took 2 years but still i was not able to write my exam. I have passed my nclex- pn in august but I cannot work yet cz my safe practice has expired and they want me to do some hours or do 4 courses in my province. Still waiting and waiting and its so frustrating. They need nurses so bad. Nurses are getting overwhelmed but no they would not make it easy for us to get our license here.
First here. Great video
Before work, I get preshift anxiety where my neck hurts and I feel sick. After work, I want to cry :(
What if you’re crying but you aren’t new 😅
As a student Everytime i would see a baby born I would cry big time
Nursing feels like nothing but negative feedback from patients, coworkers and management.
I only cried once because I’m not a crier and I persevere. But…….. mercy
I so we are gonna be depressed for life as a drained burned out nurse. Not just new
My teacher
First 🙌
Ow bythe way am from ethiopia
I'm a second year student nurse, on our duty in DR, I was able to encounter an FDU. It was really sad and I wasn't able to hold back my tears because it was the first time I encountered such happenings. I really felt bad for the mother. It's been weeks yet I can't still forget that little angel and her mother.
I quit nursing
I cried when my nursing manager made me to sign written warning before getting my side of the allegations which the patient laid on me
Anyone know of any nurse jobs that don't require the jab?
Hi
