Hello again Nurse Sarah! Now that I'm officially a new Nurse RN graduate (as of July 2018) and I'm also officially an "old coot" (ha ha....63 years old in Nov.!) I find myself with the dilemma of if I should work as a Nurse (I never got into it for money, but for other reasons) and if the answer is yes I should, than thankfully I found this video because I'm gonna take the personality quiz and find out what I can do (or want to do)......Again, a big thank you for yet another great tool for all of us new (and old) Nurses. Take care!
I’m not into fast space and complex nursing care. I’m a psych nurse right out of nursing school and I love it. It isn’t always slow and just about therapeutic communication with patients. This week we had 1 code strong where we needed up restraining and secluding a pretty big guy. We had 1 patient with EPS synptoms from the psych drugs and that was exciting. Yes it slow but I like that but the biggest advantage is that I actually get to sit talk to patients and educate them. Something I never saw happen in med surge as a student following a nurse. It’s too fast paced and pt ED is missed many times. Not all the time but it happens
Hi Sarah, i know this is too late to thank you for all the free reviews on your channel, I passed my nclex RN last 2018 by watching your lectures. Im an ER nurse now here in Cali and in NY before that. I thank you so much.
I'm an introvert as well going back for an accelerated nursing program. I enjoy getting to know my patients and not get overwhelmed. I'd really like to be an NP working in a clinic in adult/gerontology field. I'm trying to look into specialities to work as a nurse such as oncology, cardiology, mental health, occupational therapy or any others. Looking for some good ideas. I'm a CNA in med/surge and gets super busy at times and overwhelming.
I'm ISFP! Were just one off!! :) I will start the nursing program in Fall 2019, I have an esthetics license and want to do aesthetic dermatology and work at a private practice. I've been watching a lot of your videos and I am so excited to begin school! Thanks so much for posting these videos :)
I already know what I want to specialize in; Wound Care (esp. home health visits). I'm a CNA and having to do so much ripping and running around isn't for me. High-stress environments aren't for me. I'd rather work one on one and I like to befriend my patients ANNNNND ALSO I loooooove working by myself. I'm not saying I'm not a team player but I work best when I'm alone or with minimal distractions. I'm not saying I wouldn't be able to be successful in other specialties, but as a person and a professional, I wouldn't thrive the way I would want too.
This video has been really helpful. I am consolidating in the ER and chose this speciality because I wanted to get out of my comfort zone and see how I would perform in a fast paced, critical environment compared to my previous placements on med surg units . Its only been 3 weeks and I don’t think it is where I’d want to work. I had the opportunity last semester to shadow in a cardiac procedure unit and loved it! They require ER/ICU experience though. But it shows me that I love more outpatient nursing. I didn’t even know what ISJF was until now and I completely identify with it! I always thought I’d be more extrovert and like the more critical specialties but honestly it’s so stressful and I see myself burning out so quick! This video has helped me realize that I have to listen to myself and not set expectations to be some “badass, superhero” nurse working in the ER/ICU. There are so many opportunities out there. Just have to find the areas/ environments that I can thrive in.
My only concern now is that I will be graduating soon and don’t know if I should start off in a place such as the ER or cardiology to gain more skills and experience or find a laid back job. Also if I should complete the NCLEX first or work on a temp license while studying for NCLEX? So many decisions !!!!! Adulting ain’t easy lol
This is very true about trying to match your personality with the type of nursing job that would fit you. Unfortunately there are those jobs where they want you to have at least 1 year of bedside (preferably med-surg) before they even consider you for employment.
Gosh, I have been a nurse since 1988 and I wish I would have had something like this when I graduated. I do feel I am introverted but I have never taken the quiz. Thanks, good to know.
I am am in my first year as a nursing student in Europe. I have great experience working with NGOs and I think I am very good in community education, advocacy and research. I am still trying to find where I can fit in as a nurse. Considering a balance where I can still make a difference in my home country. focusing on health.
Absolutely, there is a field of nursing where you can become a substance abuse nurse. These nurses tend to work in psychiatric hospitals or mental health facilities. So, you need to become a registered nurse and apply to work in one of those areas and you will lean how to be a substance abuse nurse and you can become certified. Best wishes!
Yes a psychiatric nurse. I’m a new grad working as a psych nurse and I love it! We deal with substance abuse, withdrawals, SI pts, HI pts, depressed pt , Sever Anxiety pts, and pt who are mentally unstable like bi polar, schizophrenia
I am an ENTJ with hyperfocused ADHD and loved working in emergency medicine // critical care. I hope to return to work as an RN following an upcoming organ transplant, but am stuck as I do not have an exact time frame for ir. My other challenge is that I live in a very rural area and am unable to move elsewhere. I decided to volunteer both at a free clinic and as an EMT for years as paid employment has been seemingly impossible to find. I even graduated with a 3.62 gpa and was among the top of my class. Any other ideas anyone can recommend??
Hello :) I actually have a video that goes into detail on how to become a neonatal nurse. You can view it here: ruclips.net/video/uAHFmf8ecdQ/видео.html I hope that helps and best wishes!
I love you videos! I am an Occupational Therapist Assistant however, I have been looking for a change in career and trying to decide if nursing is for me. I was considering dermatology nursing. Can you please do a video on nurses in the dermatology setting? Thank you
Sarah, did you start as a floor nurse? I am a new graduate and am considering a position like that but I am an ISTJ. Although I would really love an OR position I am a new grad with 0 experience.
Yes, I sure did. It is a great place to obtain that new nurse experience. As an ISTJ, you may find it exhausting after a while and may want to switch specialties after about a year. The OR may be a great fit for you. I've known new graduates who went immediately to the OR and loved it. They are still there 10 years later. I say go with what interests you because you will enjoy your work better. I wish you the best :)
Thank you so much!!! All through nursing school I would say I would never work as a regular floor nurse but I have to start somewhere and had a good feel of the unit and adored the director, supervisor, & charge nurse that interviewed me. Your team makes a huge difference in my opinion. I was also offered a job with a skilled nursing facility (nursing home basically) that pays quite a bit more but just not sure I should start there. This is tough...
Very exciting! Both would provide great experience. It is a good sign you had a good vibe about the unit you interviewed on. I say definitely follow your gut and everything will work out. It is so important to like your supervisors and charge nurses. I wish you the best with your decision.
@@stefs1155 Those LTC facilities pay way more than hospitals as a new grad but one of my friend started working @ a rehab facility as a new grad & hated every part of it b/c of the high # of pt to RN ratio. They interviewed her and told her the max is 15 pts but on most days she said it is 25+ & u have to chart on all of them. It's a no go. How is it so far tho? Since ur not a new grad anymore. Pls share your experience. I'm brand new to this.
Thank You so much for the Videos. I am still 10th grade..I was interested t become a Doctor but i change my mine and interest about Nursing still confuse what exactly is match with me..Always need advice from you..Thanks
hello mam, i'm student of computer applications. Do i start my career in nursing. I want to start lvn course and then want to be a RN. I'm 28 years old.
ok help me out..i really want to help patients, i want to see them after or before surgery and i would love to have time to talk with my patients, be there for them. i also would love to help them such as taking them to the bathroom if needed or needs to be treated with a wound or something, not too stressful and just calming, what should i be..😬
I'm also an introvert that can't stand being around people for too long that's why I went for home health which is pretty much me and my patient with not much interaction with patient's family.
i’m graduating high school soon and i know i want to be a nurse, and probably work in the ER but i’m not sure if i should be an RN or nurse practitioner. What do you recommend?
You have to get your RN before you can do NP, so I say start there, work it for a few years, and then you can decide if you want to do NP and what specialty. If you do ER as an RN and decide you absolutely love it, then consider ACNP or FNP.
Hi Sarah, I am studying General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) course which is 3years RN course in India. Now I am in 3rd year and wishing to make career in US or Canada. Can you please suggest me is there any opportunities to move there? How will be pay and work for new people!
