    I started out in post acute care. Its hard but I like it because it's a little hospital. We work with vents and trachs, we do bladder scans at bedside, start ivs, give blood products, bronchoscopy, etc.
    My first week, I thought that i was going to quit, that's how hard it was. But after being here for abt 6 weeks now, and on my own, BY CHOICE after 3 weeks of training, I really love this stressful job.
    I graduated 8/3/23 and took nclex 8/11/23 (i didn't study) and started working as a nurse 9/12/13.
    Good luck to everyone who is in pursuant of this career.

    I’m 7 months in 8 months post grad. Man, the worst part has been how hard my body has been beaten up working 12 hour days.

      @Diaryofaqueen777, ooh I believe it! 12 hours ain’t no joke. Are you wearing compression socks! That helps when you’re standing all day. Plus comfortable shoes. Hope it gets better.

      First of all. Make sure you HAVE ALLLLLLL your eggs in row. Meaning nurses do something a few times before calling a doctor. Never call them with looking for something, not reassessing your patients after you did a intervention. Makes you look dumb. Always recommend when you request something that is within your scope

    Good video I passed my boards and got a job but it’s part time 8 hr shifts 😑😑 I have another job offer it’s full time but it’s 12hrs I have a young child whose almost 10 and 3 older kids that could help me with her getting ready for school… I don’t know what to do I want the 12 but I know it’ll be challenging. The pay is 32 (12hr) compared to 29… I’m just nervous about it 😬… classmates saying go with the pay 💰 and others say stick with the first job then go to another once comfortable…. I dont know 😓😅
