But the real question is why Rich didn’t chart the insulin. Or why Ben didn’t check the chart. This is why we chart as we do - sometimes someone runs off for emergency sandwiches, sometimes you give a patient their insulin and immediately suffer a heart attack; either way, the next nurse (especially in a hospital) wouldn’t just go grab some insulin randomly and give it.
At first I thought you were saying you give a patient their insulin and then YOU immediately have a heart attack. I'm like, does that happen often enough to mention it??? 😅
As a pre-med student nurse. The three checks of drug administration should always be done. Check the doctor's order when, how, and why the medication is prescribed. Next check the Medication Administration Record when it was first and last given. Then lastly check the medication in itself. Would you need special nursing considerations or responsibilities? (Ex. Monitor blood glucose through hgt) Gather information about it. Most likely in a MIMS or any drug handbook. But some registered nurses don't do that anymore. Being complacent that they already know the medication and why is it being administered. Which leads to issues like these.

It doesn’t matter how old someone is as to how experienced they should be. After all, doctors and nurses who barely pass still get to be doctors and nurses. Many of them are also arrogant and egotistical, so they refuse to do the necessary steps because “they know it all”. Veterinarians are no exception either. I had a veterinarian who was incredibly arrogant and conceded, and bc of that, assumed that he knew everything when he clearly didn’t. He , therefore, did not diagnose my cat’s hypothyroidism when I had voiced concern about her low weight, despite her eating normally. She went years without medication, all because he said that she was like that because she was just old. A different veterinarian told me that my other older male cat had dementia because he peed outside the litter box, AND I had informed him that he got regular uti’s, which was clearly stated such in his chart. Male cats also often end up with persistent uti’s after having had just one. Even I knew that. I insisted on lab work. He seemed surprised, and told me that he did, in fact, have a uti, but that it was just “coincidental”, and he still insisted that he had dementia. SMH. I reeked his ass. I “politely” informed him that as a veterinarian, he SHOULD know more than his patients’ “parents”. I then refused to allow him to see my cats anymore. I saw other veterinarians within the practice. “Surprisingly enough” my cat got better on the medicine and stopped peeing outside the litter box. Imagine that. 🤦🏻♀️

That was great. Austin is an excellent nurse,having his co-workers back. Still caring for a patient that's not his and who was rude to him. Happens frequently to some nurses and some doctors. Real life situations. I really enjoy these videos.
When you get to your 40’s and every nurse,tech, doctor, looks like Dougie Howser-you realize how old you are🤣 But seriously, I enjoy talking to them and giving them opportunities to practice and learn.
my friend is a new nurse and she comes home with stories of patients yelling at her because she’s a girl, because she’s indian, because she’s young…she’s so smart and capable & i wish those people respected her
I've had the pleasure of working with an advanced degree registered nurse who was dangerous with a Band-Aid. She was always trying to find fault and I believe get me fired. One day, the charge nurse gave the diabetic patients their morning dose of insulin. Later on that morning, breakfast was served but one of the patients refuse to eat. A nursing assistant came to me and notified me of the patients refusal to eat. I instructed the nursing assistant to try a couple of Lorna Doone cookies and some orange juice which was accepted by the patient without incident. When the advanced degree RN found out, she went nuts carrying on about how the patient was diabetic and cookies should never be given to someone with diabetes. She then then hopped on her oversized broomstick and flew directly to the director of nursing's office to report me. She was mighty pissed off and quite Huffy when the director told her that was the proper treatment to avoid a hypoglycemic event and was protocol for patients receiving insulin but having no food intake to compensate. D. McC. Ba. RN... you dizzy spitful woman, I hope you didn't end up causing anyone serious injury or death over the past 35 years since I last saw you. ( it's sad when you're employer hires a LPN to supervise nursing staff in order to keep the patients safe from under-skilled registered nurses.)
lmao same i work at starbucks rn and ppl always think i have no idea what i’m doing and that i’m like 16 and i’m like “umm i’m actually 23 with a degree in math.. i think i can figure out how to put cream and sugar into your coffee, sir”
I always believed that the young ones may not have the hands on experience but are fully up to date to all the modern everything and probably in depth too. So either way it's good, I tend to like the younger ones. They haven't turned angry or jaded like alot of the doctors have and they honestly do care. Seen a old doctor literally ignore not just me but ALL of his patience to try and pick up this young girl that wasn't just way out of his league she was on a higher universe level. So much out of his league he shouldn't have even tried. Poor girls, even I fell in love with a bunch of them and words starting coming out of my mouth and I just couldn't stop. They must be so tired of it. No matter what they get paid, they deserve so much more. Not just for that but I have been close to cashing out and been in when clinics held me, refused me to drive, and had ambulance take me, I habe been in lots of trouble. Nurses are not just healers but they are a source of comfort in a weird way and always so polite. I never liked visitors but enjoy their company when they are able to give it. They are genuinely good people, it's in the marrow of their bones. Think about it. I work with the public and the public is evil on every level. They not only choose to work with the public but train like crazy to do it. Then they have to put up with us when we're total ass holes and deserve a fist in the mouth. They still keep smiling and moving on. I remember I had a terrible year, everything always went wrong and one as working 18 hour days m-friday and 10 15 hour days sat and sun. All my emoyees sucked and I basically fired everyone but the backbone of my company and God bless him covid was to strong for him. I had to.abe surgery and this poor little girl was in the operating room. I went off on her bad, then it transitioned to another girl, and I wouldn't stop. I remember feeling shocked, embarrassed, ashamed, and tried so hard to stop but I couldn't. I tried to get up and go to work and got held down. I just couldn't stop. Then in the end she rolled me out to my ride when she should have done some medical thing that would have caused me great and immeasurable pain. She never did, she was as pure as rain. Happened a long time ago and I feel the same amount of horror at myself. These people just can't get paid enough regardless what they are making. It can never be enough.
Over 3 long years of chemotherapy and other treatments I always made an effor to be patient and encouraging with nurses in training. Often just putting in the IV was a challenging experience (my veins suck) so they would often get flustered. I really tried to hide it when I was in pain because I wanted them to get it done and learn. I saw myself in the big picture, training has to happen, everybody cannot get an experienced nurse. Patients have to understand we are part of a health system that needs to do on the job training. I was just grateful they have chosen the profession and I am still grateful for them all for caring for me and saving my life.
My paternal grandparents refused to see doctors in their later years because of how young the doctors looked to them. They eventually both got diagnosed with late stage cancer (different ones) and died 2 months apart from each other.
So sorry to hear that😭😭. People should remember that the younger doctors and nurses also learn more up to date treatments,etc. However I can see their viewpoint as some of the younger doctors have no idea how contagious whooping cough can be. It depends on the doctor if they decide to stay current with medical knowledge and are willing to listen to their patients.
While my position in health-care was only signing people in, I got the same thing. Well, I get it everywhere, but especially at a hospital. Having to explain to patients that I was the more experienced person was ...interesting to say the least. "Training the newbie?" "Yup." "She's young, she'll pick it up." Older employee trainee "Actually she's training me."
I was working with someone a few decades older than me a while back. Someone asked how long he'd been in, then asked me. They were very taken aback to find out I'd been involved in that job nearly twice as long as my colleague. I didn't bring up that I outranked him as well 😄
I’m a pharmacy intern in my early 20’s and I’ve had people who were like this about me giving them a vaccine. They go from “you look too young to be sticking me with a needle” to “wow…that actually didn’t feel as bad as I thought it would”
I wish this was a rare exceptional sort of thing, but I worked as an intern in an ER for one summer and saw several nurses make mistakes, many of which almost killed people. A few actually killed people. I always say that if you go to the hospital, bring someone with you to advocate for you if you can. Just to ask about what meds you are receiving, what the dosage is etc. There were nurses who forgot to chart things so they were done twice, nurses who gave people 1000 times more of something than they should have because they didn’t understand the metric system, and nurses who forgot critical steps in procedures. In the hospital in town, staff make a fatal mistake over 200 times per year on average. It’s really scary.
There is irony in the patient claiming "they almost killed me last time" as a reason for requesting a change of nurse ... and then that change leading to them almost killing him this time too ... and of course the nurse that he rejected ends up saving the day ... Mr Perkins is his own worst enemy.
I was in the same situation once. I had come out of an abdominal surgery where my doctor decided that it would be better if I wasn’t allowed to eat anything for awhile to let my intestines heal. He even had a sign posted outside my door saying “nothing by mouth”. But my nurses kept giving me my insulin at mealtimes thinking that I would be eating soon. My blood sugar would plummet and the nurses that tested it would have to give me popsicles and honey to bring it back up. My doctor was pissed when he saw the popsicle sticks on my bedside table and asked why I had them. I told him “Because the nurses keep giving me my stupid insulin!” I hadn’t found out about the sign yet. I don’t know if he ever said anything to them about it but he did put me on clear liquids the next day because I didn’t have any problems with the popsicles and honey.
I have been having this impression lately that the more "experienced" the health professional, the more prone s/he will be to making mistakes *because* they are not afraid of making mistakes (they just assume they won't have them)...
I get the baby face routine alllll the time. People are talking to my helper and just completely ignoring me. Then they relieze that I am the big cheese and they're just taking to a cheese stick

Patients have to understand we are part of a health system that needs to do on the job training. I was just grateful they have chosen the profession and I am still grateful for them all for caring for me and saving my life.
You know if you shot this in landscape you could get all of you in the same shot 😁
Aww, that was sweet. Nice job, Austin.
My paternal grandparents refused to see doctors in their later years because of how young the doctors looked to them. They eventually both got diagnosed with late stage cancer (different ones) and died 2 months apart from each other.
So sorry to hear that😭😭. People should remember that the younger doctors and nurses also learn more up to date treatments,etc. However I can see their viewpoint as some of the younger doctors have no idea how contagious whooping cough can be. It depends on the doctor if they decide to stay current with medical knowledge and are willing to listen to their patients.
🤦🏼♀️🤯
At least they didn't spend a long time without each other. There is something positive to get out of this, but not much.
I love the character Austin. He seems so sweet and naive.
While my position in health-care was only signing people in, I got the same thing. Well, I get it everywhere, but especially at a hospital. Having to explain to patients that I was the more experienced person was ...interesting to say the least. "Training the newbie?" "Yup." "She's young, she'll pick it up." Older employee trainee "Actually she's training me."
I love "Austin" he's always so optimistic and helpful
I just LOVE All 3 Characters, Each with their Own Style, Personalities and Speach .....Thank you... Every Video You Make is Golden 🌟🌟🌟
I was working with someone a few decades older than me a while back. Someone asked how long he'd been in, then asked me. They were very taken aback to find out I'd been involved in that job nearly twice as long as my colleague. I didn't bring up that I outranked him as well 😄
When people think your a kid Austin has worked so hard to succeed
*you're :) 👍
*you’re
Thanks
this was so wholesome 🥲
Austin is the best. I want to be his friend. I also love Rich and Ben. It’s amazing how all these characters are so unique. Well Done!!
This one is wholesome..like it. Always teary eyed here. Waw. Good story. And spot in dilevery
I can’t believe I watch these videos as if all of them are someone different, when it’s the same person doing all of the characters. 😂
Austin is such a sweetheart. 😂😂😂😂😂
Tip for all nurses!
New onset of alter mental status, always check these 3 first
1. Check blood sugar
2. Head ct
3. Urine
👍
Alright the patient has blood and there's probably sugar in there, they definitely have a head and... uhm yeah urine too.
Damn that was easy.
@@iz2333 LOL
You can't help but just adore Austin. If I'm ever sad, I know I can watch a video with Austin and my faith in humanity is briefly restored.
Looks like they nearly killed him here this time, too
Aww.... Austin is so sweet....
Keep them coming!
I see similar situations like this every day, I mean it! ER can be crazy sometimes.
I’m a pharmacy intern in my early 20’s and I’ve had people who were like this about me giving them a vaccine. They go from “you look too young to be sticking me with a needle” to “wow…that actually didn’t feel as bad as I thought it would”
I like it when they're nice to Austin
why am i so attached & invested in these nurses who not only don't exist but all are the same person😩
As an older person, I'm happy to get a younger person. Most of them are super helpful and I've never had a bad experience
Aw poor Austin finally gets recognition
I wish this was a rare exceptional sort of thing, but I worked as an intern in an ER for one summer and saw several nurses make mistakes, many of which almost killed people. A few actually killed people. I always say that if you go to the hospital, bring someone with you to advocate for you if you can. Just to ask about what meds you are receiving, what the dosage is etc. There were nurses who forgot to chart things so they were done twice, nurses who gave people 1000 times more of something than they should have because they didn’t understand the metric system, and nurses who forgot critical steps in procedures. In the hospital in town, staff make a fatal mistake over 200 times per year on average. It’s really scary.
This was the wholesome I did not know I needed today.
That wholesome ending. ❤
Austin is so humble n helpful. Sooo cute💚
Communication!!! Good job, Austin!
Aww Austin. That's right sensitive and smart, but also kickass!
That was a heartwarming story! Thank you 😊
I Love on how Austin knows Rick or Ben mess up something, Austin's like " I know you guys are doing very badly right now " ✅
Lol the "hElP HeLp!"
I like Ben and Rich character but Austin is just so adorable 😍
There is irony in the patient claiming "they almost killed me last time" as a reason for requesting a change of nurse ... and then that change leading to them almost killing him this time too ... and of course the nurse that he rejected ends up saving the day ... Mr Perkins is his own worst enemy.
Often the new nurses are very enthusiastic and I love it. Catfish among koi.
Sandwiches in the break room is just as good as finding out someone brought crispy cremes 🤣🤣🤣
I think Austin's a better person than the other two most of the time lol
I love when Ben and Rich boost young Austin's confidence levels.
20 minutes ago and Austin is an angelic smart person (I know it’s the same person)
As a diabetic, this scares the shit outta me.
Don’t worry everyone, Austin will get used to it.
I was in the same situation once. I had come out of an abdominal surgery where my doctor decided that it would be better if I wasn’t allowed to eat anything for awhile to let my intestines heal. He even had a sign posted outside my door saying “nothing by mouth”. But my nurses kept giving me my insulin at mealtimes thinking that I would be eating soon. My blood sugar would plummet and the nurses that tested it would have to give me popsicles and honey to bring it back up. My doctor was pissed when he saw the popsicle sticks on my bedside table and asked why I had them. I told him “Because the nurses keep giving me my stupid insulin!” I hadn’t found out about the sign yet. I don’t know if he ever said anything to them about it but he did put me on clear liquids the next day because I didn’t have any problems with the popsicles and honey.
You create a really good story with good scenario thank you so much for your hearty video
Haha...don't forget the report to risk management about how y'all almost killed his ass.
I'm really liking these stories! Austin's great!
haha! I'm starting to get that old-fart syndrome, too, where all the professionals are starting to look 12-years-old xD
i love austin’s character development. i’m invested in this :D
I love the feel good ones🥰
I have been having this impression lately that the more "experienced" the health professional, the more prone s/he will be to making mistakes *because* they are not afraid of making mistakes (they just assume they won't have them)...
I know this is the same person, but Austin is my favorite 😭
I love Ben, grumpy but good. And sweet Austin.
As a diabetic, I greatly appreciate Austin. 🙏🏾♥️👍🏾😁
_yes Austin you are the best, don't let others say otherwise!_
I get the baby face routine alllll the time. People are talking to my helper and just completely ignoring me. Then they relieze that I am the big cheese and they're just taking to a cheese stick
I love how they are slowly becoming friends lol
The patient sounds like Bernie Sanders. 😂
This one was so wholesome
