Nurses are amazing! My son was in the NICU. The nurses all got together and created a checklist to report important measurements to care for his health problems. Their hard work, compassion and care completed treatment in only 2 weeks. The doctors all said that it would be 6 months! My son is 11 years old now and perfectly healthy. He's in the honors programs at school and on the swim team. I am the biggest fan of nurses.
I’m so happy for you and your son! I was a NICU baby 47 years ago! (Preemie at 27 weeks) I am now a nurse, and my first job was as a NICU nurse! I came full circle, lol.
@@marieked Thanks! At one point he developed hyper-diaper rash and we could not clear it up. One of his nurses called in the wound specialists at Children's and they showed us how to clear it up in a little more than 24 hours. I don't know what we would have done if they had sent him home with that and I'd have to stop it without anybody helping. I took research classes with a lot of grad student nurses and I was fascinated by their research. It is a fascinating field of study, but what they accomplished with my son to wean him off my meds was amazing. When all the doctors wanted to talk about was whether they could let me take him home or if they should send him to a foster since his health problem was being born dependent on opioids. I take it on a legal prescription and I get tested all the time. I have a disorder that causes extreme pain. I was 40 and we hadn't used birth control in over a decade. I didn't choose the situation. The biggest parenting challenge I have is being allowed to parent. The county has investigated us twice. But the nurses never said a word and always called me mom and showed me how to care for him without hurting myself.

@@intergratedmedicine4538 Great example! It is a denial of our humanity to discount compassion. Thanks for that reminder to always remember the value we have when we are compassionate toward each other.
The biggest thing here that I love is him stating a little bit of kindness doesn't go unnoticed. As someone who is in the hospital way too often I can attest it doesn't matter who you are, even clean up crew, when they show kindness it means the world.
I love nurses, med students and student nurses, I was in the hospital for a month due to necrotising facitis and they were the ones that comforted me and kept me company when my family and couldn't be there and especially when I was in isolation from catching Covid on ward. They were they only things that got me through ❤️
Nurses are amazing. I had a cervical fusion surgery last year and the night of the surgery was horrifically painful. 'My' nurse that night walked around the room multiple times with me, to let me move when it helped & I was unsteady, when I sat on the sofa/ bench chair in the room she covered me with a blanket; when I couldn't get comfortable in bed, she helped me move positions a dozen times and added blankets & pillows to keep me in a position I felt the most comfortable. She was absolutely amazing & I do not know how I would have made it through that first night with her. Every nurse who helped me through those first few days was incredible. One even sat and carefully & gently combed all the dried blood out of my hair. ( #thingstheydonttellyouaboutspinesurgeries !)

So wholesome, I'm a medical video interpreter and I love how nurses are soooo patient with the patients, they are always so kind too, but underappreciated
I worked with mostly student nurses and junior nurses during the covid pandemic in the icu... they were all so diligent in their work... and so lovely to talk to! Being the most junior doctor in the word it really helped
Thank you so much! There were so many times where I would not know what to do and the nurse would advise me on what to put in the orders so I wouldn't embarrass my self in front of the senior doc lmao. You're a gem
It's nice when once a year a Provider acknowledges how hardworking and dedicated the laboratory folks are and the fact that we man every patient in the entire hospital including the walk-ins and ER and no just one floor. Had a Physician last night call me in BB asking if I could expedite a T&S because the nurse delayed the draw by 2 HOURS. I'd told the nurse to go ahead to send thr T&S (mind you it expired the previous DAY and said patient is know to need blood every 12-24hrs). The Physician was first wanting to rush the T&S that had just landed in my hand 3 MINUTES ago though I had been waiting for it over an hour. I explained the process that we first make sure is properly labeled etc. Then spin in the centrifuge 10mins and then run it on the instrument (or manually) but regardless will not take less than 30mins and that's assuming we 1 have no other patients in the entire hospital (yeah right) and 2 assuming the patient does not have any antibodies (which then could 30mins into 2-5hrs depend on the situation). It's just not that simple. He was very kind and changed his tone and said I'm not trying to be critical I appreciate you and all you do. I'm sorry for rushing it, the nurses have delayed the draw and was getting a little anxious. But I personally have been thanked and given some positive vibes my providers multiple times. But we definitely don't see it enough. And nurses can be the rudes people on earth and think they are above all especially, us--the Scientist that are the ones that tell YOU what's wrong with the patient. Our Motto "Without us, your doctor's just guessing 😉 ".
I can’t stress this enough! I got diagnosed with Crohn’s at 13 y/o and ended up getting some of my intestine and stomach removed when I was 14 and ended up missing my homecoming.. but let me tell you what, the staff decorated my room overnight in the theme of my homecoming and played music with me. I’m tearing up writing this comment because I literally can’t stress enough how much med students and nurses helped me in those times. They wanted me to feel like a normal teenaged girl but also knew of all of my health issues and just tried to make things as normal for me as possible. A HUGE THANK YOU to you guys.
Awww this was so sweet! Always cool when nurses and docs are on the same page, appreciate each other, and effectively work together for the common goal of excellent patient care! ❤
Aww, that was cute. An intern actually asked me to teach him about EKGs one time. I showed him a device i use to remember which leads indicate which issues
Meanwhile the cna is like "I was nurse in my home country and I'm chronically under assisted and under payed and nobody noticed the stage 3 bed sore I talked about last shift."
CNAs in the special care unit (full care, 2 person transfer) I worked at in high school were paid 10$ an hour in my state, even the one who was a nurse in her home country. It infuriates me to this day
So yesterday I spent 10 hours in A&E (/ER) due to an intractable migraine. 6 hours was waiting. Half trying to sleep, half (painfully in every way) trying to distract myself. Long story short, I found myself on the Wikipedia page of the hospital - 'Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh' reading its history. It was the first ever 'voluntary hospital for the poor' back in the 18th century, in a house on a street still called Infirmary Street (house long demolished) & when it quickly got funding for a larger location it appointed a nurse/ matron to run it. I learned it was founded by someone with the same surname as mine, & later generations were Deans of the medical school. Ancestry research some time in my future - first names are also common among men in my family, although that can happen within clans. The ad for the nursing matron requested _"a childless female without 'another' family to care for"_ so she could dedicate all time to patients. I'm reading that (through one eye, one patched bc light ⚡⚡⚡), while sitting in a massive 21st century hospital complex with many male nurses coming out to get patients and introducing themselves: _"hi I'm Bob, one of the nurses here..."_ as if that had always been a totally normal thing to say, as they walked the (lucky!) patient back. I was appreciating NHS free wifi while philosophizing on the history of medicine & thinking about gender roles - differences _and_ similarities that exist today. Not just in medicine. I like this video. (Most importantly, they got rid of my migraine after 2 weeks of hell. :)
I’ve got to say, I ended up in hospital for 2 days last week with acute seizures, the only thing that kept me positive was how amazing and helpful the nurses and other “minor” staff were. Literally the hardest working people I’ve ever met
I kept waiting for the burn. But hey..I'm glad y'all actually DO build each other up sometimes. You DO right? As many times as I've been in the hospital...whew
Just spent last week, unexpectedly, in a cardiac ward. Extreme afib/taky. I got more good info from the nurses and (overhearing) the techs and their students than I did the specialists. They also left me 5 hours with my chart on my lap, waiting for a cardiologist who was trying to cover an entire floor, so I took photos of it with my phone and studied it myself.
At the end, when he said right back at ya! 😂 this reminds me of that once in a great while when we slip up at a restaurant, and we say “you, too!” when the waiter says enjoy your our meals, who’s with me on this one?
I recently got told that whilst my Structured Medication Reviews are both financially supportive of targets and highly valued by patients, they want me to focus more on just pushing discharges and Medication Reconciliations through the system. Purely administrative. What a waste of my master's degree. Pharmacy is a grind. I already miss talking about electrolytes and constipation with my patients 😢
Lol would love to work in a place where as a nurse my main focus is bowl movements and I’m only expected to be able to tell if something is “off". This interaction is cute and sweet but nurses fight so hard to be seen as team members with valuable contributions (not just input about BMs). Most nurses in the field have 3-5 years of medical education with advanced practice nurses having around 8 years. Despite that though, we often are not given the chance to throw our academic hat into the arena. This type of perception of nurses is a big reason why!
@@eriksand7553 That doesn’t change anything about my point. Both characters agreed, they can only tell when something is “off“. I have colleagues who are nurse practitioners, clinical nurses or nurses with 10+ years of experience and they are capable of so much. My point is just that we are constantly fighting to prove that our voice and opinion is valuable and that we have more than just technical skills. This perception doesn’t help.
Hey doc Schmidt, nurses must understand arrhythmias , lethal, non lethal , identify all rhythms, so a nurse saying “ they’re out of my wheelhouse “ is like a sitcom. Those little things we do? Run codes, run four different titrated drips, pressors, sedatives and antiarrhythmic together, help with endoscopes and central lines at the bedside, draw ABG’s, initiate vent changes via communication with the residents, wound care, family diplomat, call abnormal labs to the doctor and have the medicine ready to help correct it before you call… question anything at anytime that Doesn’t seem right, some of the “ little things” nurses do to make people better
Yeah, any nurse that says "arrhythmias are a little out of my wheelhouse" is just not experienced enough. A truly experienced nurse usually is the one calling the doctor to tell them what the patient needs to fix the arrhythmia. It's doctors like this that get all snarky and refuse to put in orders because it wasn't "his" idea. Then about four hours later, after the doctor's dumb idea hasn't worked, he puts in orders for what the nurse originally wanted and the patient immediately gets better. Then the doctor takes all the credit for coming up with the solution and dismisses the nurse in rounds.
It's so weird for me as an ER worker not seeing nurses run the show while the doctor is literally there as basically a formality. I also like that you can't tell which is the nurse and which is the med student
I’m guessing this is what the apology video was about haha. I’m a nurse, this does feel pretty patronizing, but not worthy of ppl getting upset. No RN I know would say “lil old me!” Lol but otherwise I get the idea
god the nurses at some of the care homes I work with just LOVE ordering laxatives for their patients. like this one I worked with today - the patient is on 51.6mg of Senna at night, 500mg of Docusate twice a day, AND 15mLs of Lactulose three times a day but now they’re requesting to add on Miralax because somehow the patient is still backed up. Mind you, this is a relatively healthy patient, just one a few psych meds and miscellaneous vitamins. there’s no reason why they need to be on so many laxatives. We’ve brought it up to the doctor before and he just shrugs it off???
If only we could have this convo with the residents/doctors at my hospital. Dietitians are so under appreciated until there’s a committee where dietitians are required then we get a few kudos from the state or joint commission.
Sir, you know it all to well that miralax in an arrhythmia is not an easy choice. So that wasn't a little contribution and can potentially cause havoc if not taken seriously.
Oh the constant worry about constipation is real! As is the the most important question to the patient, Have you had a bowel movement yet? And the excitement when the patient poops 💩!
The problem I see is that the nurse should have received report from the night nurse regarding the f/u. And reports are given at the beginning of the shift. And the nurse should have also learned about any new medications (and any additional assessment needs) or any new scheduled diagnostic exams. I am completely out of the loop as to what information the med student should have. I am just a lowly dialysis nurse.
“Doctors love electrolytes too much” This is so relatable even though I’m still in pre-med 😭 studying clinical chemistry right now and I can understand why they love em, these damn electrolytes can really cause an array of problems when they’re off balance by even 1 mg/dL, it drives me mad studying them 😭
The bowel movement part is very true!! Nurses are obsessed with BM's 😂 But you'd be surprised how many issues constipation can cause! (Or diarrhea...where are the electrolytes?! Hehe)
... why was I thinking they had great, "will they, won't they" energy. Personally, I think by mid next season is how long I'm willing to see where this goes. 😊

Hope the med studenten keeps that attitude when he/she graduate!
Ps. And I love that you don't really know which one is which.
It was gender normative, if you know what I mean 😉. The blond needs the order for the poop drug, so you know that she's the nurse.

Many nurses excel with monitoring for, interpreting, and intervening on arrhythmia 😂
As a nursing student I approve of this interaction :D
had interactions with med students like this. You know the ones that are going to become good doctors :-)
Nurses (and technicians and such) have often followed me (and have been kinder to me) more than the doctors. They're awesome tbh🥺

Run codes, run four different titrated drips, pressors, sedatives and antiarrhythmic together, help with endoscopes and central lines at the bedside, draw ABG’s, initiate vent changes via communication with the residents, wound care, family diplomat, call abnormal labs to the doctor and have the medicine ready to help correct it before you call… question anything at anytime that Doesn’t seem right, some of the “ little things” nurses do to make people better
The point is: who is the nurse, & who is the med student? If you watch twice, assuming a different 'character' each time, it could be either.
Yeah, any nurse that says "arrhythmias are a little out of my wheelhouse" is just not experienced enough. A truly experienced nurse usually is the one calling the doctor to tell them what the patient needs to fix the arrhythmia. It's doctors like this that get all snarky and refuse to put in orders because it wasn't "his" idea. Then about four hours later, after the doctor's dumb idea hasn't worked, he puts in orders for what the nurse originally wanted and the patient immediately gets better.
Then the doctor takes all the credit for coming up with the solution and dismisses the nurse in rounds.
Now time to get that cohesiveness amongst the rest of the medical staff on a consistent basis.
it’s all shits and giggles until some shits and giggles
“The little things we do”.
I love that you don’t know which one is which - for they are the same … haha
Another great video, Doc.
"the little things you do..." yeh thanks. lol
I'm actually so excited to start my hospital placements and make friends with all the nurses (incoming med student starting in Jan!)
It's so weird for me as an ER worker not seeing nurses run the show while the doctor is literally there as basically a formality. I also like that you can't tell which is the nurse and which is the med student
I love it.
Greetings from an RN (a sick and feverish one).
Just adorable 🤣
This is so sweet!
If only their interactions were usually like that.
I can't tell which one is which and I think that's the point.
This was so nice
I don't know this is the one time where I have to disagree I feel many times the experienced nurses know way more than the first year med student
Ehhhhhh. I mean, probably not about basic science and cardiology.
Wait how many wigs you have 😂❤
I’m guessing this is what the apology video was about haha. I’m a nurse, this does feel pretty patronizing, but not worthy of ppl getting upset. No RN I know would say “lil old me!” Lol but otherwise I get the idea
god the nurses at some of the care homes I work with just LOVE ordering laxatives for their patients. like this one I worked with today - the patient is on 51.6mg of Senna at night, 500mg of Docusate twice a day, AND 15mLs of Lactulose three times a day but now they’re requesting to add on Miralax because somehow the patient is still backed up. Mind you, this is a relatively healthy patient, just one a few psych meds and miscellaneous vitamins. there’s no reason why they need to be on so many laxatives. We’ve brought it up to the doctor before and he just shrugs it off???
If only we could have this convo with the residents/doctors at my hospital. Dietitians are so under appreciated until there’s a committee where dietitians are required then we get a few kudos from the state or joint commission.
Whenever I have a friend or family member in the hospital I prefer speaking to the nurse rather then the doctor.
Nurses are the backbone of meds.
That was really sweet
Aw ❤ I love nurses!
what would we med students, or young residents, do without nurses, i cannot begin to imagine
How quickly the med students forget.
I love this so much
Electrolytes are what plants crave
Awwwh this was so sweet
I'm always amazed at how little inhospital people know about arrhythmias.
Sir, you know it all to well that miralax in an arrhythmia is not an easy choice. So that wasn't a little contribution and can potentially cause havoc if not taken seriously.
Oh the constant worry about constipation is real! As is the the most important question to the patient, Have you had a bowel movement yet? And the excitement when the patient poops 💩!
Accurate completely
love this ❤
I'm an idiot. Which one was the med student and which one was the nurse?
That’s the joke
Neither and both.
The problem I see is that the nurse should have received report from the night nurse regarding the f/u. And reports are given at the beginning of the shift. And the nurse should have also learned about any new medications (and any additional assessment needs) or any new scheduled diagnostic exams.
I am completely out of the loop as to what information the med student should have. I am just a lowly dialysis nurse.
The one telling about the mirilax the blonde 👱♀️
It’s obviously the blond.
I love how these interactions sounds like hot gossip. 🔥 lmao but I have no idea what any of this means. 😂
Took me a while to figure out which was which lol usually whenever there’s a nurse, he uses the wig for them
“Doctors love electrolytes too much”
This is so relatable even though I’m still in pre-med 😭 studying clinical chemistry right now and I can understand why they love em, these damn electrolytes can really cause an array of problems when they’re off balance by even 1 mg/dL, it drives me mad studying them 😭
Thanks!
The bowel movement part is very true!! Nurses are obsessed with BM's 😂
But you'd be surprised how many issues constipation can cause! (Or diarrhea...where are the electrolytes?! Hehe)
... why was I thinking they had great, "will they, won't they" energy.
Personally, I think by mid next season is how long I'm willing to see where this goes.
😊
