I’m a part of the statistic. Leaving the profession. Been treated like trash, and I’ve been through hell. Hospitals are so greedy it makes me so angry! Short staffing units on purpose so the CEO can’t get his $10 million dollar check? Yeah… peace ✌🏿
As a paramedic it;s work your azz off and keep on working until you roll over and die
I left bedside nursing in 2017. It didn't take Covid to burn me out. People are getting sicker and sicker. There will never be enough nurses to take care of them all.
Yes, I understand!!! Been a Registered Nurse for 30 years. I'm so tired of being given more patients than I can take care of with Administration trying to give you more and trying to force you to work way longer than a regular shift. It's just too much!!!
I worked as a CNA for 3 while setting myself up for nursing school. After working with nurses and seeing their work environment, I decided no way.
Exactly How I Feel
Wow 😮 me too!!!! I have been working as an LNA and after 1 year was going to test for RN School 🏫 yet I felt this inner doubt feeling like don’t go to Nursing school 🏫 and THANK GOD because I have experienced the toxic hospital experience and my Sanity & Serenity are WORTH MORE TO ME than another degree to be stuck with a $65,000.00 student loan only to work in an industry that is NOT CONDUCIVE to my Spiritual Values and HR doesn’t care about anyone but the money 💰
I wish I was as smart as you
I love bedside nursing but would like my wages to keep pace with inflation. Why aren't we unionizing?! Seems to make sense since the hospital admin is not going to voluntarily increase nursing wages- they seem to try everything except that.
Not paying me enough. My friends with other careers are making $180-$200K only working 30-40 hours. I work 60 hours and not coming close to their salary. Hopefully this is my last year in nursing.
Have you thought about travel nursing?
what professions are you friends in? are they physicians?
One fifth? No it’s way higher than that.
my hospital ER turnover is 70%
"The reward is far greater..... than there are.. stressors..........." 🤥🤥🤥
Can’t stand them boot licking nurses.
Yeah. 🤣🤣🤣
I’m going to nursing school now and working as an assistant at a hospital. Seeing what goes on and the stress that is involved is not rewarding at all. One patient gets discharged and 3 get admitted. It’s a never ending story. Hospitals are clearly a business and nurses are overwhelmed and overworked. I see more than 1/5 leaving. It’s going to get bad and it’s making me want to get out before it gets messy
Not just nurses. First responders as well.
If I had 9 patients, they wouldn’t even get a two weeks from me. They would get a bye, see ya never again. That’s appalling. We need national mandated ratios and enforced covered breaks and zero tolerance for abuse. The stress of being overworked will kill you before whatever pay you think it was worth it all for means anything.
Try being a nurse at a nursing home
Where you get 40 average patients! Even the CNa can have this many and that is more physical.
Nurses are leaving the profession because of corporate disrespectful to nurses and corporate don't value us .... bottom line , it's about profit that benefits the pockets of the CEOs ... greediness . Always understaffed due to budget ...
Wonder why? Not surprising
I don't blame them. I couldn't deal with rude and nasty people 12 hours a day. I've heard stories of nurses being kicked and spat on. No amount of money is worth dealing with that.
CNA here been spit on, racial slurs, treated terrible by patients and managers, nursing sucks don’t wort it.
There isnt a shortage. They treat the nurses they have terribly and arent accepting nurses from most black and brown countries.
Work for 1 year as a nurse, and it will teach you everything you need to know. What's the reward for working, being cursed out, and bullied for little pay? Haha.
System's broken. On purpose. 👺
Don't mandate things
watching this while also watching my sister graduate from NP school.
Call outs galore at my hospital
That nurse with the nails 😅
Took me out too 😂😂😂
3 patients!. Ha. I have SEVEN every shift
I work as LNA and have no less than 16-20 patients per 12 hour shift 3 days in a row 😮
Why is their hair down? Where I work your required to have it tied back.
And 2 inch long nails on every nurse in the video😂😂😂 I guess the policy of 1/4 inch or less went out the window. 😅
If your facility has 30 open nursing positions and no applicants, do you care about their hair being down? That being said I have very short hair which was great for ICU and not contaminating.
You really care if their hair is down?
bowen is a queen . spoted
If you want to pay for my education I'd do it
I need me a fine country girl like Miss Taylor. Ole Miss taylor 😆. I'm here in los Angeles, CA and can't stand it here. Where u at ma'am? 😂😅 Shooting my shot virtually 😅. Bold as hell!
I booked it a month before the august vax mandates. Welding now. Staffing is short many days too.
And there’s the retrogression made it even worst for foreign nurses who want to work in the USA…
What do you mean?
it means america is racist lmao @@Freek314
I doubt that everyone I know is a nurse...
All of this BS
My school has around 30 seats/semester Tuition < 10k. Private schools in the area accept around 150 students/ semester tuition 120k. America is so messed up.
Most of the nurses are worth 10-20 bucks an hour outside of nursing but wages need to be higher inside nursing so that positions get filled. I actually think nurses are better on average, than a typical employee but the market for administrative/government stuff is over-saturated, and shortages exist in other sectors.
What a stupid comment- from some fool who isn't worth 10 bucks an hour in any field.
