ANXIETY as Critical Care Nurses I Mental Health in the ICU

New graduate nurse anxiety? It happened to all of us...ESPECIALLY if you're working with critically ill patients. The learning curve is steep, the stakes are high, and the personalities around you aren't always warm and fuzzy.
Our top tips are to develop a system, prioritize what's important, and practice effective communication...but stick around until the end for some of Chrissy's favorite phrases that helped her reframe her anxiety and still guides her professional practice as a CRNA today!

I am a new grad starting in the cardiac cath lab with a rigorous training program that includes 6 weeks in ICU. I am so nervous and scared. I don't know what to expect, especially since this is an unusual path. Thank you for your advice and your videos!
