I'm only 1:30 into the video and I already wanna give her a big hug and tell her shes awesome:)
omg mia youre so kind, giving you a biggg hug xoxo
You are the DEFINITION of what a CNA/nurse should be!! This line of work takes HEART!! Not just skills. ❤️❤️❤️
thank you so much
I agree
My grandma has hip replacement surgery several years ago. There was a wonderful CNA that spent a lot of time with her post surgery. My grandma still talks about her, almost four years later, and how she made her feel so comfortable during an uncertain time.
What you do matters so much! Keep smiling and working towards your goals! ☀️
awww yes it is crazy how much the little things make a difference
First of all you're gorgeous. Secondly, I am a second year PA student and I used to be a CNA at a nursing home and then a PCT at the hospital (same thing, different names) for a total of 2.5 years. I love how you were talking about the patients not being just a number. Just from that I can tell you will be a great nurse. I believe anyone can be smart and get good grades if they work hard enough, but not everyone can be a nice, caring person and to me thats the most important personality attribute for anyone in healthcare, no matter their title.
aw thank you so much Lisa
My first day as a PCA in a hospital is tomorrow! I will be working as one for the next 2 years while I complete the rest of my pre-reqs I still need. I want to be a PA as well one day!!
Lisa I am starting my CNA, and then my PCT. my PCT is a longer class because I am more then likely learning stuff there that I will not be learning in CNA. Is this the right way to go?
So True ❤
I’m debating between Nursing school to NP Or PA I’m a CNA myself I got few years experience myself.
I job got a job as a PCNA ! I couldn’t be happier. I’m so happy that I found your channel
I'm a nursing student, about to take my first job as a pcna. I just have to say you are such a sweet person and I admire your passion for this job. I felt the same way as you when I was in home healthcare and I'm sure I will love my job as a cna just as much. Thanks for lots of good info and good luck to you!
I am a junior in high school I found your channel and just love your videos. You inspire to keep going. I am a certified medical assistant and will get a physical therapy aid assistant certification this year. And I want to be a pediatric RN when I get older. Can’t wait to go with you on this journey, much love 💕
aw thank you sooo much
Alvarez Clarissa I know this comment was written almost a year ago. I honestly want to do the same thing. I an a sophomore in high school and I really want to get my certification this year. I also want to be a pediatric rn! How is your journey going thus far? Also what age did you start working as a CNA? 💕
Dakota W I have my CMA so I am a Medical assistant not a certified nurse assistant. In my state I cannot use that certification until I am 18 which I am almost there. I got my physical therapy aide assistant certification this year. This last year of high school I will be taking medical billing n records. I will use those certifications mean while I go to my local community college for pre reqs. I might go to there nursing school there ! As of right now that is my plan :). My school used to offer CNA certification but it got switched out :( maybe you can do some research and see if you can maybe take a dual enrollment class or something ? All I have to say is do your research on other career paths and if medical sticks that’s what’s meant to be. Also start looking at some colleges. Time flies and soon you’ll be a senior, I hope this helps 💙😁
I just started working at a hospital as a CNA tech and ran across your video, you are such a sweetheart !!!! I love how humble you are, thank you so much for posting this !!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just found your channel. I am an experienced surgical tech and medical assistant for about 7 years in women’s health. I am pursuing nursing school and came across your videos. This video literally made me cry. I think your personality, your kindness, and hunger to learn will take you so far. I think you truly are a light. And often times ppl will tell u those awful things that it won’t last and all but I love how u quickly stood your ground and said that this is who you are. Very brave of you, I love to see it.
I know you got into nursing school and I’m actually working my way from oldest to newest but if new you could tell old you something, what would you say?
I’m a CNA as well and I love my
Job. It’s tough but I love it. Hopefully i can start nursing school soon. Good luck
it is tough but amazing and thank you good luck to you too!!!
I’m not even a nursing student, but my boyfriend is & I love watching your videos just to get an understanding of what he goes through. You are amazing !! 🤍
I know these are old videos I just found your channel looking for a pre nursing and nursing student vlog to follow but you seriously have a heart of gold. It’s refreshing seeing someone in this position love and respect what they do. Starting out in this position i feel like makes people even more awesome of a nurse. You are such a great girl good luck on your journey.
you are so nice and positive. my life has been kind of rough recently and your positivity and such always puts a smile on my face
aw thank you so much Stephanie
I love that you’re so humble. I was working as an CNA in a longterm care but you motivated me to go back to work in a hospital. Such a nice girl 😁😁💜
aw thank you so so much
You are such a sweetheart, you are a nurse that anyone would want to have in their life if needed. ❤️
Everything you explained in this video is completely accurate! I worked in the hospital and the PCA’s are a vital part of patients care! In some occasions the PCA’s are more knowledgeable than the RN’s! Thank you so much for this video ♥️♥️
aw thank you
I got so excited seeing the notification. I wanna be a PA, I'm about to start the whole process for taking the prerequisites in the Fall. But I stumbled upon your channel probably a week ago and I have been hooked. I love your energy and you just seem so nice, I love it❤❤❤ thank you for sharing your journey
good luck in the fall Ashley
I just have to say you are incredible and you are such an inspiration. I’m 16 going into junior year and also am going to be graduating this year as well. I’m doing a CNA class for half of my day and then will be certified by the end of junior year if I pass my test and I am so so excited!! I’ve always felt led to help people. I grew up in the church my dad was a pastor for 8+ years and honestly I can’t believe I even found ur account. Definitely something I needed at the right time. Keep doing you!!💛🥳🤩
omg thank you so so much Bella
just found your channel and im OBSESSED!! im a junior in college rn at a school that doesnt have a nursing school but i want to be a nurse so im doing a masters direct entry program once i graduate undergrad ! i thought about being a PCNA but couldn't find any super informational videos so this was super super helpful!! :)
thank you so much Charlotte
you have such a big heart , really feel like this is what you were born to do ! ❤️
aw thank you sooo much amiyah
I loved seeing the notification for this video come up! You are just so full of life and the kind of person needed in hospitals. Seeing how you genuinely care about your patients is so sweet. Lots of love girly, keep doing you!
aw thank youso much elsie, you're so sweet and it means so so much to me
You make nursing look so easy , I can’t not wait to be a nurse 👩⚕️
This is so amazing literally made me tear up your heart is so big. I start my PCT position this Saturday and I’m incredibly nervous but this definitely helped me remember why I’m doing it and I’m so excited
I love how your so positive. I hope to be as kind and caring as you are with my patients in the future and be able to get to know about my patients lives because everybody should have a chance to meet somebody as kind as you. I love your channel and I can’t wait to see what god has in store for you.🥰💛
aw thank you so much Erin you just made my day
madi's nursing journey your welcome. I hope I get to make other people’s day to.
i just got accepted into a nursing assistant program at my local hospital and i dont have to pay for anything and they are providing me with scrubs and the usual equipment and i get all types of medical benefits, Hearing, Dental, Vision and whatever else comes with it and and honestly I am so happy and grateful because i just turned 20 and i dont have any type of medical insurance and for them to offer that is so great.
This video is a simple display of your heart. It is beautiful. You have a hurt for this and it is so beautiful to be reminded and encouraged of why I have chosen to go into this field.
i've been an stna/pcna for a year now and i love it. the hardest thing i've found is that some coworkers are not like you or i and as compassionate towards the residents. that to me is negative energy sucking away my positive energy. i am starting at a new facility this week and i pray that most of my coworkers are workable and campasionate. i hate seeing a nurses aide be lazy and not want to help.. why be an aide if u don't have a desire to help. anyways, we need for people like you and your positivity is radiating 😍🥰🤩💛🌻
you’re so sweet 💗🥰 it sounds like you are an amazing stna💜👩🏽⚕️
I am a DPT student but I love your videos. Many of my friends were nursing majors in undergrad and they just finished. You're so kind and will make an amazing nurse one day!
aw thank you so much Zoe
I’m starting my pre reqs for the nursing program I am so excited AHHH
omg Erica good luck girly
Me too!!!!
Wow you are amazing. Your patients are so blessed to have you as their nurse.You are a natural, nurses need your mentality to help with healing souls.
you are so sweet, thank you so so much for those kind words
Wow! I’ve been subscribed and watching your videos for awhile now and I wondered if you were a Christian because you’re so joyful and kind! I love that you stated in this video that you pray for some of your patients. You’re such an inspiration for me! (I’m 17 and want to become a nurse) God bless you and I’ll be praying for you and your nursing journey!😊
aw thank you so so much Danielle
I start CNA classes next month and want to work in the hospital once I'm certified and this was helpful. Really appreciate how thorough you were.
aw good luck
@@madisnursingjourney ❤❤
I’ve been watching you for a long time now but I’m very happy with this video. Madi, you’re going to make SUCH a great nurse. I mean this so sincerely. Keep doing great. Good luck when your program start next month. I can’t wait to see your nursing school haul
aw thank you sooo much
You are such a sweet soul and the medical field needs more people like you! I'm also a CNA, but my hospital calls them PCTs. It's a tough job, but it's so rewarding. I'm in the process of getting my nursing degree too, and I know your videos will help out so much. ❤
aw thank you so so much meghan
I actually think you're my favorite RUclipsr now, love love love your videos and your energy that you give off😋
omg whattt thank you so much marissa
I’m a new subscriber !! Love your videos so far you’ll be a great nurse!
I’m going to be a junior in high school and have been looking for career options in the medical field. I did look at going down a doctor route, but I’ve seen disconnect with patients. I find it fascinating and amazing that you truly care about the patients and their lives. You’ve opened my eyes at this field and I thank you so much. When people think about nursing it seems overwhelming but I thank you for breaking down these terms. I wish you great luck on your journey. I’ll hopefully follow your journey soon!
aw thank you sooo much liz
hi madi! i’m also starting nursing school next month and i’m a cna right now in newborn nursery & pediatrics!! i love my job too and it’s refreshing to see someone else enjoy being a cna as well ❤️ way too many people talk down on our job but i always go home feeling so fulfilled and happy
omg lucky that must mbe so amazing
We really love your channel 🥰🥰 Thank you I really love how you go into detail explaining I didn’t know what those things meant ether that was very helpful and also that gives you an edge because not everyone does that so that will make your channel more popular.
aw thank you so so much Amanda
You are soooo nice, I'm still in high school and I want to end up doing nursing and you only make me want to do it more, thank you for that!
You are so inspiring girl, this made me so happy to hear. I aspire to be the same way! Sending you love 💗

Watching your videos just get me so excited to get into nursing school!! Currently doing all my pre-reqs so fingers crossed 🤞 You definitely look like you’re so happy doing this, I love seeing people working in medical professions actually loving what they do since sometimes they go into it for the wrong reasons. Congrats on all the subs girl, been here from the beginning so I’m proud of youuu 💞💞
aw yay and good luck you got this Kaitlyn
I graduated nursing school in December! You’ll do great. It goes by sooo fast. Everyone says that but you’re going to look back and be like “dang we’re did the last 4 years go” have fun!

You're so sweet! You can also tell you loooove your current job, can't wait until were both nurses!
aw thank you so much Vanessa you're the sweetest
nursing is something that i keep bouncing back and forth with wanting to do as a career - can you do a video on like pros and cons about nursing and the journey to becoming a nurse (obviously that you’ve experienced so far!)
yes I will soon
Thank you so much for making this video! I start pre-nursing school in about a month and can't wait to start. I was thinking about getting either my CNA certification or my Phlebotomy license so I can work during nursing school and this video helped so much thank you! I also loved how positive you were about all of it and how passionate you seem about your job!
good luck girl
I'm a sophomore in college and I apply to nursing school this fall, and I'm excited but nervous! I love your videos, it gets me excited about nursing!! :)

This was so helpful!!! My high school offers a one school year pre-nursing school program which I will be attending this school year. I feel like this is preparing me what to expect when I work during my college years!! Thank you so so so much for not only this video but all the ones you upload.💛🥰

The needle for the Accu-Chek is called a lance.
omg yes thank you so much!
Can you do a video talking about your whole college experience thus far? Like how you became a CNA while doing your nursing pre-reqs and how that all worked at your school, what classes you took together, tips, etc.? I start my pre-reqs in August and I’d LOVE to learn more!!
yes I plan on filming that this week
Lancets the needle to prick finger fot glucose checks
Where did you complete your PCNA training?
I love your channel ❤️ so positive!
Thank you for this! You are so lovely 😊 I hope I’m as good a CNA as you.
of course
Hi Madi! I've been following you for awhile and I'm currently in the process of switching careers into nursing, currently taking pre-reqs! I might be looking into PCNA jobs.... I was wondering if you got certified as an STNA first or did you just get trained on everything you need to know during your orientation? Also, how long was your orientation?
Woah 😦 I’m a CNA and my main duties include check & changing my patients/ assist to the bathroom, assisting with ambulating, transferring patients, feeding (unless they have a peg/g tube), shower/bathe aaannnddd that’s about it 😂 that’s crazy that you can work with caths and removing IVs!! That will be so helpful when you start your labs in nursing school! I can’t even check their blood sugar! I am able to take vitals, but it doesn’t happen very often unless one of my patients is declining. But also, I don’t work at a hospital, I work at a geriatric nursing facility.
it is crazy how all places are different! good luck Julie
Best of luck to you as well!! Love your Chanel!! ❤️
I just got hired as a PCA at my first hospital, all of my experience has been in long term care. I'm super nervous and don't know what to expect.
Life with me: Jessie Marie did you have to do a resume for your application when you applied for the position?
you're going to do amazing good luck
what type of printer do you have and can it connect to your macbook air and print stuff from it
Also I love you so much
I just subscribed! Our nursing school journey starts at the same time, good luck to us both!
aw thank you
Lancets! The Accucheck needles :)
You will be an amazing nurse.
Hi Madi! I’m a new subscriber and I absolutely love your channel and the insight you give on working in healthcare❤️. What unit do you work in? Never change your beautiful personality!!💖
aw thank you so so much
I would love to work as a CNA to gain experience in the nursing field. I'm currently a pre-nursing student, would you suggest me to work as a CNA while being a pre-nursing student? I would love to hear your suggestions and advices! ❤️
Community college?
Work as a cna and gain like a month of experience and then go to a pct school / class EKG and phlebotomy class your become a pct/pcna
The BEST nurses were CNA’s
My hospital needs to be more like this. Everybody is getting/giving report at the same time so if you get called to a room during report, depending on what is needed you just have to stop what you're doing lol
yes it is so nice! they just started doing it at my hospital!
You are so kind and full of joy! How did you grow your hair?? Also, I want to be a NICU Nurse so i love watching your videos and seeing how much you love what you do! Any tips for my senior year of high school?
aw thank you so much
talk about beauty with brains
ohmygosh thank you so much Nicole
Hi i'm getting ready for an interview for a pcna position at cleveland clinic and was wondering if you had any great tips for me! :) I'm super nervous but I really want to land this job because I want to work at cleveland!
im training to be a CNA im trained in ostomy care and end of life care
I am a certified medical assistant to find a job
This sounds cool, I wanna be a nurse. Might be able to apply to nursing school in about a year, after prereqs
absolutely love your channel!! i’m currently working on becoming a CNA and i’m so excited! i was a little scared to work in the field, but your videos truly inspire me🖤 do you get to choose what specialty/ floor you work on as a PCNA, or do they place you where you are needed??
aw thank you so much Jada! btw I love you're name, it is the prettiest name I have ever seen
madi's nursing journey thank you so much!! 😊❤️
I am also a pcna.
Nurses are great but they have the responsibility of too much paper work. The pcna is more hands on and does more work
Watching this as a new nurse who was a CNA for 3 1/2 years 😂😂 but I watch all your videos!
omg thank you Michelle
madi's nursing journey also the needle things for blood sugars are called lancets! I just got to that part of the video, lol. And you’re welcome! ☺️
I'm back gorgeous. Love your video as always keep working hard! Besos xo
thank you!
@@madisnursingjourney I was having a bad day and this really made me smile and my day ty xo
aw I am glad, I hope your day gets better, keep your head up!
@@madisnursingjourney you're absolutely gorgeous, sweet, and very humble the world needs more people like you fr xo
Hey madi!! I’m a 15 yr old aspiring nurse and I’m sooo excited to become a registered nurse and I have always knew I wanted to be a nurse or doctor and I was jus wondering how did you get started on this path and why u did?!! Thank u so much I love u❤️❤️❤️
hi Leah
Follow up from my last comment!! I got into school!!!!!!!! I start in August too!!!!!!
OMG WHAT
Yes! I’m so happy it all worked out!!!
That is crazy. I am a CNA and lately at my facility we have ran a wing of 36 patients to a ratio of 2 CNA. I love your channel. I want to start a channel but I am not sure yet lol.
omg that is sooo many people!!! and thank you(: start a channel!!!
omg ur the sweetest
aw thank you so so much
You are so thin and beautiful like a model it is hard to believe you have insecurities and anxiety. I say that cuz i was morbidly obese and humiliated a lot growing up and as an adult. Now that i am a "normal" size I still can't depart from the fat girl mentality. I am so insecure and always thinking other people see me and think "Oh, she's so fat. Gross." It is stressful. I started nursing school this August too, but a week before my final was in a bad car accident on my way to class! I broke my thumb and wrist in 3 places and had surgery. I still showed up for the Final even though I had been on pain killers and in pain and only able to read the PowerPoint packets one time thru. I needed an 85% and got an 80% so i was kicked out of the program. I am still in shock and devastated. So much time and money wasted.
Ive decided to apply to another nursing program but they require you to be a CNA, so I am paying the money and going to start that soon. Ill have until next fall to do something while i wait, soq after watching this video I want to be a CNA in a hospital! I think the experience would invaluable. I love your heart and attitude and compassion for patients. I am the same! And Lord knows not everyone in health care share the same attitude. I asked God why this all had to happen to me when I had thanked Him every single day for getting into nursing school and asked him to please protect my hands, especially my right dominant hand! And then Im in a hortific accident caused by other driver and not my fault at all so I cant blame myself for going to fast or not paying attention or taking a risk cuz i was late and in a hurry or anything like that. So God had to have let it happen for a reason and I thought maybe it is because I'm not suppised to be a nurse and He didn't call me to do that and that this was Him shutting the door and I felt stupid for ever thinking I could be one or that God believed in me. I couldn't believe I injure my right hand and fail the class right at the end when I was finally in the groove, confident, and loving it never wanting it to end! But now I see how this can be turned for good and that being a CNA first and starting over again next fall would be beneficial for my confidence and determination. If I get in I will be so beyond thankful to God for a second chance. Im glad I found your videos. :) say a prayer for me please.
Have you ever thought about going paperless ? Im going to nursing school in September here in Canada and I just got an iPad and will be getting the apple pencil to take notes !
that is such a good idea
@@madisnursingjourney with your writing(which is gorgeous btw ) it would be amazing ! Watch some of study collabs videos. Makes anyone want to haha ! Or September Studies channel goes more into depth.
Found you a few weeks ago and loving watch you blow up haha
thank u so much omg
Just a heads up I watched a video on RUclips that says a Venti pink drink with no ice is theSame as three tall pink drink from Starbucks so if you’re not getting a Frappuccino get all your drinks with no ice and just asked for a cuppa ice or put ice and at home they are ripping us off
omg thank you so much!
Pcts and cnas are not tne same thing
