Master Pooper why is that rude? She really looks great. I never looked that good after 12 or even 16 hours on the floor. Always looked sweaty and exhausted.
When a patient asks me why I'm wearing a mask I tell them it's because people literally cough right in my face for 8 hours straight. Patients take off their masks to cough. I've used all my sick leave and I can't afford to lose my job. Most of my coworkers are in the same boat. We are working with a skeleton crew. If you want better care in the ER please have some manners and use some common sense. And please stop bringing all 4 of your kids with you for a back ache you've had for 13 years.
Lots of folks DON'T know how to sneeze! just saying....we have SIGNS posted now in our Naples, FL office and numerous hand sanitizer pumps all over the place...NO EXCUSES! heh!
RkicF8 I COMPLETELY appreciate your stance on this and understand the value of your concerns. Me personally, I will take my flu shot IF it keeps me from getting sick. (And I know there are risks.) I had H1N1 in 2009 at around 24 years old and had never been so sick. Turned into pneumonia. Freaked me out beyond words.
What happened to bedside manner? Most nurses are amazing but she is so condescending and the issues with long shifts and breaks is the fault of the privatized healthcare system not sick people
Ari W go work in an ER for a month and see the idiots that come in. There will be 4 or 5 cardiac patients, you know, true emergencies. Then one frequent flyer or something minor that did not require the ER like the typical Friday night STD the pt has had for a few years. Those are the people demanding a turkey sandwich and pudding while they wait....from the RN that has to stop everything else to track down the sandwich or the pt will complain and get the nurse in trouble for being rude. Multiply this scenario x 12 hours. Screw bedside manner. The ER is for emergencies. It is not a place to hang out and be treated like royalty.
sam gonzalez Then I am gonna mention this too. In my TX area, we have health inspections list in local paper once monthly. In black n white, ya get to see how FILTHY your local restaurants are, folks. Altho its the LAW that employees have been checked out at local health dept BEFORE employment, many restaurants are cited and still stay open. My point? The parking lots still full with dumb people eating there - knowing the danger does not seem to matter. So - common sense is at record lows in many health issues not just flu. BTW, flu shots do not prevent the flu.
Ari W Family full of ER reg nurses here. You should not be shamed for bringing this up. Nursing ain’t what it used to be. For those healthcare workers where caring for people is a calling and the patient comes first, there is no excuse for being rude or condescending. Sick people and their scared relatives are often not exhibiting their best manners - its part of nursing. Now one NEVER has to put up with abuse - NEVER but I see rudeness to patients that would never have been tolerated ten years ago. FACT.
You are one of the hero’s, and we do appreciate all that you do...the long hours, the risk, the patienCe, the professional (but sometimes thankless) job you are doing. God speed, girl. Get some rest!
I LOVE YOU, YOU GAVE THE PERFECT SPEECH, AND EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE TIRED, YOU GAVE IT WITH HUMOR. I USED TO BE A NURSE. ALSO WORKED NIGHT SHIFT. AND I ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTAND WERE YOU SAY PEOPLE ARE SCREAMING AND CUSSING AT YOU! I WORKED ON A PEDIATRIC FLOOR AND THE PARENTS THOUGHT THAT THEY ARE HERE AND WE ARE HERE TO SERVE THEM, A PARENT CALLED ME, HIS CHILDS ROOM WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE SMALL KITCHEN, HE WANTED WATER AND I WERE SHOCKED AFTER HE WENT YELLED AT THE TOP OF HIS VOICE BECAUSE I DID NOT RUN THE MOMENT HE PUSHED THE BUTTON AND I WERE BUSY HELPING A MOM WITH A VERY SICK BABY. AND AS HE RANTED, HE SAID HE WILL GO TO THE ADMINISTRATION THE NEXT MORNING AND I JUST HAD TO SMILE AND SAID, HERE GIVE ME THE JUG, WALKED TWO STEPS TO THE ICE MACHINE AND GAVE HIM HIS WATER. I TAKE MY HAT OF FOR YOU AND EVERY NURSE IN AMERICA. WE LOVE ❤️ YOU AND WE DO APPRECIATE YOU AND THE DOCTORS WHO ARE THERE TO HELP US, IN THE NIGHT, IN THE ER!! ❤️💓
Dean Farah I think she was tired and instead of telling all this to her patients, she posts it on social media and I definitely don't sneeze in my hand and I cover my mouth when I cough too😊
Jenna Boulrisse I once made my mom take me to the ER, and it turns out I had an extremely bad ear infection, and I needed surgery. They said it i hadn't come, I'd be deaf in that ear!
geeker211 A lot of chefs don't wash their hands in taking pride how clean their food is. In any case a lot of grown men at least from what I seen don't wash their hands. Just go to a public restroom in a crouded area like the movies and count how many people don't wash their hands.
Dragonk116--So true. I used to work in the food industry and saw some gross horrifying things being done. That was over 20 years ago and I haven't eaten out since, LOL
Brenda Chown Yes I always try to use my foot to open the door if it doesn't have a normal lock... Or the restrooms that don't have any doors, just twisted halls.
Maripatricia Morence medical masks are more of a fibrous type of material now that works as a filter far better than the old paper masks did. They help a lot with preventative measures for both spreading and contracting many airborne viruses.
Nurses are totally underrated. They work their asses off taking care of others. If she wants to rant to teach everyone a lesson, then by all means, let her rant! She more than deserves it. I come from a family of nurses, and constantly hear the things they have to deal with, from the nauseating bodily excretions to the horrible attitudes. Nurses deserve all the praises in the world. So, please be kind to your nurse. They're working to get you back on your feet, and should be treated with gratitude.
Yeah. i thought it was going to be a massive whistle blowing on how the doctors are paid off by the drug companies to peddle their poison and how vaccines are not meant to keep you healthy.
I love the “tutorial” on how to politely sneeze 😂 One of my biggest pet peeves is when people hack up a lung without covering their mouth and same when sneezing...
I have always said nurses are overworked and underpaid/under-appreciated, this video further explains my point. Thank you to nurses everywhere for all that you do!
Tatiana Acevedo Good point but there's way more to this years epidemic than that. This years flu shot was the most dangerous one to ever have been administered. This is true from Dr's that I know dealing with this. You're definitely right though the hand washing still is a huge thing of impotantance. It's just scary to know what's really behind all of this, there are many very reliable Dr's out there standing up for what's really going on out there that are getting the truth out so hopefully the information will continue to spread and keep us safe.
Thank you for saying what we all think. Teachers, Nurses, PCAs and all other care givers everywhere deserve far better than they get from the public that they choose to help.
LeeLee IsFree that's BS. These positions do not give an open invitation to be abused by the public. The majority of customers/clients/patients do not know how to treat others. They walk in demanding with a nasty attitude. Customers should be refused service if they are rude and abusive. A nurse and teacher certainly are not there to be screamed at, which happens to both often. The customer is always right attitude is why so many customers have bad manners.
This is why I have so much respect for people in patient care careers! I work in a hospital lab and I could never have the patience this woman has. Much love!
This should have gone viral again considering the current state of affairs. Her demeanor and manner in instructing the public is exactly what we need people to heed.
I like the fact she was being honest, too many people visit the Emergency Room when it's not a life or death matter, then people have to wait until the emergency cases get taken care of first. This lady has done nothing wrong except give sound advice about how not to contract and spread the flu which has claimed many lives this year. Please take good care of yourselves!
she was complaining the entire time thats literally what a rant is, epic, well sure thats up to opinion I think people love it so much because shes not having the typical yelling and cursing rant...but rather actually informing people what not to do...Southern charm showing here not just a pissed off lady, lol
Not fucking likely. And I don't care about your "best friend." What does that have to do with a damn thing? You could be lying through your teeth and nurses are misinformed sheeple anyhow. Next!
Natalya Babiy what?? That's a broad generalization. You need to go out more and spend less time in your bubble. Her voice is southern-like. anywho, enjoy your safe day.
jaajaj that was in my mind.. then again in Long Care some of us Nurses do 16hr shifts.. again Long Care (not as fun but very DEMANDING too) We look like zombies after a doble...
My six year old son just left hospital because of the flu. This lady needs to be in every school and daycare. I had three days of worrying about my sweet baby dying from the flu. Thank you...every nurse, every clean up crew...every single person who helped protect my only son from being a statistic. Thank you for posting this video.
You guys, unless you are immunocompromised, very young or elderly, Tamiflu (the flu medication she is talking about) only shortens flu symptoms by ONE DAY according to evidence-based studies. So, if you are a relatively healthy individual, there is no need for the medications. DO the home treatments she is talking about. Good advice there. - FNP
victoriaaak Tamiflu may be the biggest scam big pharma has ever created. I chuckle when I hear about people stockpiling it, thinking it's going to save their life during an outbreak. Goes to show how brainwashed most people are by western medicine and that a pill will make everything better. Studies have shown that Echinacea is just as, or possibly more effective than tamiflu.
Natty Bumppo yeah I don’t like pills. The herb is much better. I don’t take herbs cuz I don’t have them and I’m a sixteen year old kid and my mom don’t like me buying stuff she thinks is stupid. Also get healthier up those omega threes eliminate red meat and switch to sustainable seafood and ditch milk it’s shitty for u. Eat lots of antioxidants and always choose whole grains when possible. Eat your legumes. Grow some Urad dal beans in your garden cuz u just can’t afford them here they’re super good for you.
i agree with you--altho i will say, after having been diagnosed with a variant of the H1N1 back in ~2009, reducing those symptoms by 12-24 hours might be worth it = P
I had the flu type a (H3N2 strand) just last month, I felt absolutely miserable and had 104+ fevers. I was prescribed tamiflu and on the 2nd day of taking it I felt great. I had only previously taken 2 Tylenol’s 3 days before. Not sure if it was the tamiflu or something else because I did exactly what she said to do (hydrate a lot) and rest. I’m also 19 and a healthy person, maybe just a strong immune system.
Ossicillium & Elderberry Perfect combo for flu & flu-like viruses... cut it down in my house to THREE days being deathly ill (from hit by a truck, can't get out of bed sick to back on your feet and going to work/school on day 4) No health risks, no side effects. Tamiflu has a risk of death. Why don't the tell you that? Who would risk death for shaving off MAYBE 1 day of being sick?
Also, don't forget to thank the paramedics when they take you to the ER. They are also putting themselves on the frontline of the germ fight, and are exposed to quite a bit of nasty germies, too.
I work retail at a convince store I swear people are gross! There was a man who was coughing repeatedly w/o covering his mouth. I finally told him off I couldn't take it anymore. Some children have better manners
i was eating at food court and the guy behind the register, instead of sneezing into his arm, he sneezed behind him and I watched to customers literally just stare and walk away fast lol.
so i ordered a coffee at a well known cafe - the MANGER sneezed into her hand then proceeded to make my coffee, and charge me for it. There was a sink right behind her. disgusted at myself for saying nothing, but made sure i gave review detailing this lack of hygiene practice and haven't been back there since
I love how all the doctors of TH-cam have expressed their two cents. It is horrible that a person can’t make a harmless video without all the keyboard warriors coming out in full force belittling her accent, her medical training, etc. Get over yourself! No one held a gun to your head and made you watch this video..🙄🙄
Nurses are the safety net for patients against incompetent doctors. She may not have the training of the doctor but, she has had TONS more experience with patients.
this is me That certainly *can* be true about Good, Intelligent, truly Caring nurses. They have way more hands-on time spent with patients. However in my personal extensive experience being in the hospital, there are a lot of nurses with nasty attitudes that obviously dislike their job and the patients get the brunt of it. Very rarely have I had nurses that were truly caring and professional. Some were but only if they thought supervisors/coworkers were watching. This is especially true during night shift. I know they're working long hours but that is not the patient's fault.
While normally I would agree, she did make quite a big mistake. While it is essential to stay hydrated, one should NOT drink Gatorade while sick, as sugar suppresses the immune system. I'm sure she had good intentions, but that misinformation may cause some people to become more sick
Risa - it is a violation of the federal wage and labor laws - UNLESS they pay you for that time. Problem is most nurses are going to take care of the patients first, breaks become few and far between. And, although nurses can make their employer pay for lost break time, the hospitals put enough hurdles in the way that most nurses don't try. The real answer is to make the hospitals automatically pay for lost break time in areas with a track record of frequently lost time - such as all ERs. Regarding the one doctor, that's actually pretty normal. In larger hospitals he will have backup in the form of residents and the hospitalist. In the smaller ones, his backup will be the Doctors who are "on call".
Long ago in a Republic far far away... Hospitals were run by cities, counties, and churches. Federal legislation mandated a specific number of hospital beds per 1,000 population per the census. This guaranteed that all parts of the country were prepared for a natural disaster or an epidemic. Thank goodness we have been spared the burden of such a system... Thanks to Saint Reagan. Y'all better learn to administer to your own, because hospitals are full of sick people, and are under staffed, with too few beds. If you are sick, stay home. If you are infirm, stay home during flu season. Keep your infants at home like your grandparents did. Infants don't have immune systems. There is no benefit in breaking a fever unless it is excessive. The immune system induces a fever in an effort to kill the virus. A moderate fever is a good thing in this instance.
I'm a mother of 2 toddlers and once Christmas was over and flu started breaking out, I went into quarantine mode. I go grocery shopping without my kids, sometimes. I carry my own wipes around, we wash our hands as soon as we get home. We get company and I Lysol or bleach the crap out of everything once they leave!! I don't know how many times I've seen people sneeze into their hands at the grocery store and go straight to touching groceries, I steer away from their particles. Just stay home people or at very least wear a mask and wash you damn hand!!
👏👏👏 I stopped cooking and stayed in my room when I got sick. No idea what it was but I live with my elderly grandparents and uncle. Really really would hate to see them sick. My brother became the cook and cleaner.
I thought the information was great. The hospital you work at is lucky to have someone who cares as much as you. I wash my hands a minimum 20-30 times a day. I’m a kidney transplant recipient, and have to be very careful due to the meds I take. I flew down here from Detroit to Ft Myers, and I wore a mask, safety glasses to avoid anything airborne. Don’t understand why people don’t wash their hands. I wash my hands after handling my own cell phone. You are a great asset to the hospital you work at, and they should be proud to have you as a nurse. I admire the hard work you and all nurses do. I pray that you weren’t penalized, after seeing your story on news, wasn’t sure what happened. Thanks again, I think you’re great. Pray you stay healthy.
Its our fault that the flu and other viruses, bacteria, get stronger each year. We take so much medicine for things the body can already handle naturally, that they become resistant and more deadly. I rarely take medication for any sickness, and my body takes care of it just fine. People are getting medicine for simple coughs, the only way you need medicine is if your in a life threatening condition or have a condition that requires constant medication. Now we have flu strains killing people within days, though the news makes it seem much larger than it is.
Thank you for all you and your fellow nurses do. I've had my leg amputated and I've been in a coma. I see and hear what's going on ...in each shift. Y'all help so many and don't get a thank you one. Well THABK YOU and I wish y'all the best this flu season.
Tell the flippin haters to clam it. You are a delight, Kat! Please keep your cheerful, perky, slightly sarcastic sense of humor. Whatever they're paying you, it isn't nearly enough. Sadly, plenty of people NEEDED even this elementary explanation. You absolutely ROCK. Don't change!!!
At the same time, acting like you're bearing the biggest cross to carry is a little insulting when the patients are the ones in agony not the nurses. No one should have to act like they're high and mighty for dealing with abuse all the time, a properly functioning healthcare system would deal with these illnesses with clinics long before the patients have to sit in a miserable room to be miserable. (I suspect this is the biggest issue for you Americans out there) A properly functioning education system would help people figure out how to know when they are dealing with something treatable outside of a hospital and a bit of support from some friends/family. A properly functioning employment and work system would enable patients and workers in all fields to have paid sick leave so as to prevent the spread of flu and related illnesses and get their flu shots. And live healthier lifestyles that reduce the chances of getting ill at all. A functioning hospital administration would have extra staff on hand and have more happy staff and less miserable ones pretending to be happy. A better designed city would spread out the patients going to each hospital, proper design of car parks, public transport etc all make a difference. No one needs to act like an angel if your system does the heavy lifting for you. We need less heroes and more intelligent people in Administration.
Mad Hatters in jeans true, but the people that go into a ER with a child with barely a fever, only being a small headache, and bringing along other healthy people into an ER room lack common sense so you can blame the system but you can’t not blame the sick people that go to an ER without staying hydrated, getting rest, and practicing good hygiene in general so that the sickness doesn’t get too bad People like this should learn some common sense because they don’t have any
You don't sound sarcastic at all. I thought you had amazing restraint after a long shift. Thank you for the job you do, and the patience you have, to deal with utter stupidity on a daily basis. I've been a nurse for 37 years, and the things I've seen! Love it when babies are allowed to crawl on hospital floors, and are brought in for extended visits period. I could go on and on. Your voice is lovely, and I can tell you are a very sweet, caring, and professional nurse. Stay well, and may God bless you.
When my daughter got diagnosed with the Flu first thing i bought was a box of mask, hand sanitizer, and disinfectant spray and quarentine my daugther for a week.....people thought i was going over board but i was makimg sure no one else got sick. 😷 This nurse was on top of it👍
You’ve got a point with people being upset about the wait. Being in the medical field myself, I swear, patients need to realize that we are in the healthcare field, not customer service. We’re there to take care of you, not kiss your ass and do whatever you want as soon as you ask for it.
You right in every word , people must protect them self and others from getting sick , and we know all of you working hard to help in the hospital, god bless you all and thank you .
Shane Miner lovely but why didn't she just say all this to her patients instead of TH-cam 🤔 Degrades her patients on social media but I bet she doesn't refuse that paycheck those disgusting patients donated towards, you reckon?
Tracy c I’m sure she does educate patients on proper methods to avoid spreading illnesses. I don’t believe she is degrading any patients, she is telling people that are thinking about going into an ER not to unless really needed (as in a true emergency). And believe me she deserves more than just a paycheck, I know, you see I too am an ER nurse 👨⚕️ and not only do we get treated like crap by people we are helping we are exposed to everything that comes in, are on our feet for 12 hrs and often do not get a lunch break. Give it a shot and see how you like it. Bye now
Tracy c How do you know she hasn't said this to her patients and probally everyone else as well. As for degrading, uhmm no. She didn't give any names only gave examples. Besides, everything she said is the truth. Put yourself in her shoes for a moment and actually think about what she's saying and trying to convey instead of assuming things. There's a reason assuming starts with ass.
If you are sick, please don't take your germs to your local theater or restaurant just because you are bored or you don't feel like cooking for yourself. If you go to your local Walmart to pick up your prescriptions or cold medicine, please don't allow your snotty-nosed kids to meander throughout the toy section, touching every surface of the store. Employees at that facility have to go behind your kids and put things back in the proper place, which means they have been exposed to whatever your kids are spreading around. Keep your sick kids at home. Keep yourself at home unless it's an emergency. You will recover faster and you won't spread the flu all over your community.
I am totally HAPPY FOR THIS IMPORTANT INFO!!! GOD BLESS YOU REAL GOOD FOR telling us the TRUTH!!! I understand how you feel and I WILL be sure and pass this info along to others. PRAYING for nurses and doctors. PRAYER CHANGES THINGS!
I’ve seen so many people sneeze into their hands or not even cover. I want to slap them every time. Cover your sneezes!! Lol. Thank you for this rant. It’s amazing.
Personally, you were way to gentle! IF I have a reason to go to the E.R. I get a surgical mask! I drain the hand sanitizer! AND I go off on people on how to sneeze!!!!!!!!!!!! I think you should have a You-Tube Channel! P.S. Thank-you and all the folks you work with for the job you do!
You go girl!!!!! I feel like this every morning when I get off working night shift in a Children's Emergency room. What the is wrong with people? The sign clearly states Emergency Room. A flu test IS NOT AN EMERGENCY. FEVER "BARELY RIGHT NOW" IS NOT AN EMERGENCY. Your doctor's office opens at 8:00 a.m.
Same! Everytime I go to the ER or urgent care I get a mask. I've even once had a doctor ask me why I was wearing one cause it wasn't on my triage I had coughing or sneezing. I was like no, but I had a kid throwing up right next to me.....so didn't want to be a part of that shit. And I have a weird form of eczema on my hands, I often have at least one open sore on them. You better believe I used hand sanitizer three times in the hour I was out at the store today and washed my hands when I got home.
I'm so with you! I work in an ER and just amazes me when people say "I've been at this window for 5 minutes where were you? And then I inform them that we're working a code blue, and then they respond "Well I have shortness of breath!" without any labored breathing as they're saying it.
So true! WASH YOUR DAMN HANDS!!! I live with 2 ppl one got the flu the other got pneumonia, I GOT NOTHING. WHY? Cuz I made sure to wash my hands and sanitize almost everything.
Just happened across this very helpful video at the perfect time. I have 2 loved ones heading to the er as I'm typing this and I was sure to give them some much needed advice on their way out the door. Thankful for all the nurses and doctors braving this season 😷
Castiel Ware good, the flu shot is nothing but poison anyways. I used to get them when I was a kid and I would get sick with the flu every single time..I haven’t had one since I was 9 and guess what?? Haven’t had the flu since..just eat healthy and your body will protect you with the immune system we were ALL born with.
@@justcallmemama91 Nonsense. Don't get the shot if you don't want to but stop encouraging others to be dumb. And stay home when you are sick. The shot CANNOT give you the Flu. It does start an immune response that can cause cause a short term, slight fever and lethargy. You'll be fine the next morning if you are as healthy as you think you are.
@Pirates Fate The shot I got the lest 2 years was "Quadrivalent". Counters 4 different strains. Big Pharma.....that's pretty funny. You're an ignorant, paranoid Goon.
@Pirates Fate Oh,I thought I was big pharma, now I'm Government? That seems like a downgrade. I'm so offended. Then you demonstrate your superior intellect by making a thinly veiled homosexual reference. Bet all the 5th graders fear you at recess.

Everyone is saying she was rude, but isn't she just telling you the truth? I guess no one likes hearing the truth anymore lol.
ha.. exactly!
She wasn't rude to me, people are just sissys.
Paranormally Correct
Informative, pleasantly delivered, hardly a rant. 'Preciate the service.
People don't want to hear the truth. Their feelings might be hurt.
Daniel Kintigh
Apparently not everyone knows this if she experience it.
For a 12 hour shift, she looks amazing!
Gypsy Woman she looks amazing period 😊
She’s naturally beautiful!
She's GORGEOUS, amazingly "cute" AND hilarious to boot!
Master Pooper
why is that rude? She really looks great. I never looked that good after 12 or even 16 hours on the floor. Always looked sweaty and exhausted.
shes going on adrenaline....vacation?
This should play repeatedly in waiting rooms!
Great comment!
BEST SUGGESTION EVER !!!
Absolutely. Also the CDC should run this as a nationwide advert and pay this woman for her great work.
Yes
Lol good idea!
When a patient asks me why I'm wearing a mask I tell them it's because people literally cough right in my face for 8 hours straight. Patients take off their masks to cough. I've used all my sick leave and I can't afford to lose my job. Most of my coworkers are in the same boat. We are working with a skeleton crew. If you want better care in the ER please have some manners and use some common sense. And please stop bringing all 4 of your kids with you for a back ache you've had for 13 years.
Mr Sir *DAMN* you are so fucking right!!! Theoretically if you got the flu shot then there is nothing to be afraid of... unless of course it’s a hoax.
Mr Sir the flu shot doesn't protect you from all strains of the flu. This year's flu shot was only 10% effective.
Sharon Formation hahaha 10% effective!?!? That is practically useless. Again the flu shot it’s complete bullshit.
Wtf would they take it away to cough?? Are they sociopaths or just dropped on the head as an infant??
You are correct. And it doesn't totally prevent you from getting the flu just not a as severe case.
Way nicer than I would have done it.
Dave Rhoden and rather informative 🤔🙄
666 likes, nobody touch IT!!
sad she has to rant things that should be common sense.
hope or, things that are taught to pretty much everyone, in the first grade... 😔
Unfortunately, common sense isn't very common.
Common sense has gone to the wayside. I work in a hospital and it's sad how many people walk out of the bathroom without washing their hands.
Lots of folks DON'T know how to sneeze! just saying....we have SIGNS posted now in our Naples, FL office and numerous hand sanitizer pumps all over the place...NO EXCUSES! heh!
RkicF8 I COMPLETELY appreciate your stance on this and understand the value of your concerns. Me personally, I will take my flu shot IF it keeps me from getting sick. (And I know there are risks.) I had H1N1 in 2009 at around 24 years old and had never been so sick. Turned into pneumonia. Freaked me out beyond words.
I work in an ER too, and I just want to thank you for sharing this video. What happened to peoples common sense?
What happened to bedside manner? Most nurses are amazing but she is so condescending and the issues with long shifts and breaks is the fault of the privatized healthcare system not sick people
Ari W go work in an ER for a month and see the idiots that come in. There will be 4 or 5 cardiac patients, you know, true emergencies.

Altho its the LAW that employees have been checked out at local health dept BEFORE employment, many restaurants are cited and still stay open. My point?

BTW, flu shots do not prevent the flu.
Ari W Family full of ER reg nurses here. You should not be shamed for bringing this up. Nursing ain’t what it used to be. For those healthcare workers where caring for people is a calling and the patient comes first, there is no excuse for being rude or condescending. Sick people and their scared relatives are often not exhibiting their best manners - its part of nursing. Now one NEVER has to put up with abuse - NEVER but I see rudeness to patients that would never have been tolerated ten years ago. FACT.
And now I want to thank YOU, cause there are few people I respect more than those who work in hospitals.
You are one of the hero’s, and we do appreciate all that you do...the long hours, the risk, the patienCe, the professional (but sometimes thankless) job you are doing. God speed, girl. Get some rest!
they actually should run this video in the waiting room once an hour :D
en4ce what a good suggestion
😂 lol great advice I am sure will get the point hearing her😀
Best idea!!
- no, somebody would be, "offended".
haha, yeah, i still think, better offended than ill =D - these people you referring to would be both then, hugh? hahhah
Yo. Give this woman a damn raise.
seahawkers101 GIVE HER A DAMN HOSPITAL.
why? for having common sense and knowing what nurses are supposed to know?
J Garcia. For doing her job and going above and beyond to do it. Does your job not reward you for your performance?
Kay Jay. WHY YOU YELLING?!
posting a video online with the same information available in hundreds of other videos is going above and beyond? you are easily impressed.
Thanks Nurse, you are doing a great job in and out of the hospital.
I LOVE YOU, YOU GAVE THE PERFECT SPEECH, AND EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE TIRED, YOU GAVE IT WITH HUMOR. I USED TO BE A NURSE. ALSO WORKED NIGHT SHIFT. AND I ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTAND WERE YOU SAY PEOPLE ARE SCREAMING AND CUSSING AT YOU! I WORKED ON A PEDIATRIC FLOOR AND THE PARENTS THOUGHT THAT THEY ARE HERE AND WE ARE HERE TO SERVE THEM, A PARENT CALLED ME, HIS CHILDS ROOM WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE SMALL KITCHEN, HE WANTED WATER AND I WERE SHOCKED AFTER HE WENT YELLED AT THE TOP OF HIS VOICE BECAUSE I DID NOT RUN THE MOMENT HE PUSHED THE BUTTON AND I WERE BUSY HELPING A MOM WITH A VERY SICK BABY. AND AS HE RANTED, HE SAID HE WILL GO TO THE ADMINISTRATION THE NEXT MORNING AND I JUST HAD TO SMILE AND SAID, HERE GIVE ME THE JUG, WALKED TWO STEPS TO THE ICE MACHINE AND GAVE HIM HIS WATER.
I TAKE MY HAT OF FOR YOU AND EVERY NURSE IN AMERICA. WE LOVE ❤️ YOU AND WE DO APPRECIATE YOU AND THE DOCTORS WHO ARE THERE TO HELP US, IN THE NIGHT, IN THE ER!! ❤️💓
The people who think she is being rude are the ones sneezing in their hands.
Dean Farah lol, or are the ones in the ER for ear pain...
Dean Farah I think she was tired and instead of telling all this to her patients, she posts it on social media and I definitely don't sneeze in my hand and I cover my mouth when I cough too😊
Jenna Boulrisse I once made my mom take me to the ER, and it turns out I had an extremely bad ear infection, and I needed surgery. They said it i hadn't come, I'd be deaf in that ear!
I can't believe people (adults!!) need to be told to wash their hands like 2 year olds LOL!
geeker211 A lot of chefs don't wash their hands in taking pride how clean their food is. In any case a lot of grown men at least from what I seen don't wash their hands. Just go to a public restroom in a crouded area like the movies and count how many people don't wash their hands.
Dragonk116--So true. I used to work in the food industry and saw some gross horrifying things being done. That was over 20 years ago and I haven't eaten out since, LOL
Brenda Chown Yes I always try to use my foot to open the door if it doesn't have a normal lock... Or the restrooms that don't have any doors, just twisted halls.
People can age but not grow up.

Pleople need to use a paper face mask.
That doesn't really help. The virus is so small the holes in the paper filter are much bigger. Like trying to stop a breeze with a chain link fence.
Maripatricia Morence medical masks are more of a fibrous type of material now that works as a filter far better than the old paper masks did. They help a lot with preventative measures for both spreading and contracting many airborne viruses.
i have a better fetish than that.
Mask doesn't help you not get sick it just keeps you from passing mucus through coughing or droolimg directly on them. That is all it does
You also domy have to show symptoms to pass along illnesses
Nurses are totally underrated. They work their asses off taking care of others. If she wants to rant to teach everyone a lesson, then by all means, let her rant! She more than deserves it. I come from a family of nurses, and constantly hear the things they have to deal with, from the nauseating bodily excretions to the horrible attitudes. Nurses deserve all the praises in the world.
So, please be kind to your nurse. They're working to get you back on your feet, and should be treated with gratitude.
btw this is not a rant please change the title to the appropriate.
nurse gives people some good fking advice
guardianjuan......Shut up Sheeple!
Yeah.
i thought it was going to be a massive whistle blowing on how the doctors are paid off by the drug companies to peddle their poison
and how vaccines are not meant to keep you healthy.
+angelfirelite Wtf??
She's an example as to why I have so much respect for nurses.
I love the “tutorial” on how to politely sneeze 😂 One of my biggest pet peeves is when people hack up a lung without covering their mouth and same when sneezing...
When she demonstrated sneezing in her arm I died.. 😂
I have always said nurses are overworked and underpaid/under-appreciated, this video further explains my point. Thank you to nurses everywhere for all that you do!
Nyia They're actually paid really well. Underappreciated, yes.
Uncaged Studios should be more in some states
Wash your STINKING hands people!
🤧
Hell they just get dirty again... quit killing the germs.... Germs lives matter
Tatiana Acevedo Good point but there's way more to this years epidemic than that. This years flu shot was the most dangerous one to ever have been administered. This is true from Dr's that I know dealing with this. You're definitely right though the hand washing still is a huge thing of impotantance. It's just scary to know what's really behind all of this, there are many very reliable Dr's out there standing up for what's really going on out there that are getting the truth out so hopefully the information will continue to spread and keep us safe.
this is excellent! I appreciate that she took the time to educate us. thank you.
Praise to her and all the nurses out there putting in so much work to help people, even the rude and/or careless ones!!
She looks admirably fresh and pretty after what must have been a bone-crunching shift.
Ah, youth ...
Come on. Remember when we could party all night and go to work in the morning looking fresh as a daisy? Those days are gone... LOL
Wanna maintain your body, intermittent fasting and keto diet. Research.
Wow. Your ignorance is profound.
hands down the best comment here.
Mister Smith she's in the car lol
She's being very sarcastic but she's telling the truth
Nichole W-Minus: The truth is almost an understatement. I respect nurses much
more than doctors. . She is a total trooper! 😎👍
Yuri Del Castillo u are so right
She's being sarcastic because this info should be obvious
Nichole W-Minus lol
Yuri Del Castillo "I respect nurses much more than doctors" what an ignorant statement
The number of patients that open mouth straight cough in my face when I’m trying to talk to them is infuriating.
I’m so thankful for nurses. You guys are such a blessing ☺️❤️
“5 people walk in with the flu. 15 people walk out. And guess what, they don’t know they got the flu so they gonna be back!” 😂
Master Pooper ??? He’s quoting the video... you’re the rude one here
I like her. I hope someone rubs her feet when she gets home.
Wiseacre79 She verter wash her feet first
GhostCrisp86 hell naw the stinkier the better for me
KillemOnArrival You have a foot fetish?
Skankhunt42 all day boiii
I guess
Thank you for saying what we all think. Teachers, Nurses, PCAs and all other care givers everywhere deserve far better than they get from the public that they choose to help.
LeeLee IsFree that's BS. These positions do not give an open invitation to be abused by the public. The majority of customers/clients/patients do not know how to treat others. They walk in demanding with a nasty attitude. Customers should be refused service if they are rude and abusive. A nurse and teacher certainly are not there to be screamed at, which happens to both often. The customer is always right attitude is why so many customers have bad manners.
Agreed
This is why I have so much respect for people in patient care careers! I work in a hospital lab and I could never have the patience this woman has. Much love!
I loved her face when she was faking a sneeze LMAO
Jaime Reynolds sameee
cant wait for the remix
Reminded me of something else lol
Same lol
Jaime Reynolds no Mom I wasn't trying to control my sneeze I was just dabbing
Sorry she hasnt been able to reply to comments, she's out sick with the flu
www.GPcarAudio.com THATS FUNNY !!! Lol !!
Ha ha ha ha thats a good one lol.....
.
I wonder if she was vaccinated 🤔🤔🤔
Clean Bodies ..excellent question
Christin Hines ..5 seasons in a row and she will be on her way to Alzheimers. Mercury, Aluminum.
This should have gone viral again considering the current state of affairs. Her demeanor and manner in instructing the public is exactly what we need people to heed.
I love her. This video should be put on every morning and evening news. This flu is serious!!!
I like the fact she was being honest, too many people visit the Emergency Room when it's not a life or death matter, then people have to wait until the emergency cases get taken care of first. This lady has done nothing wrong except give sound advice about how not to contract and spread the flu which has claimed many lives this year. Please take good care of yourselves!
lmao this women is great and it was a clean rant too, show your kids :)
she was complaining the entire time thats literally what a rant is, epic, well sure thats up to opinion I think people love it so much because shes not having the typical yelling and cursing rant...but rather actually informing people what not to do...Southern charm showing here not just a pissed off lady, lol
@Cutlerylover: She looks phony af. Straight out of Central Casting. What nurse have you ever heard acting like that?
lemurian chick uhh..my sister who's a nurse.
+lemurian chick
My best friend who is a nurse. You must be a liberal.
Not fucking likely. And I don't care about your "best friend." What does that have to do with a damn thing? You could be lying through your teeth and nurses are misinformed sheeple anyhow. Next!
I work in medical and amen to this RN! Listen to her suggestions and apply some common sense while or before visiting a hospital.
I Have a daughter who is a nurse. She says the exact same thing about emergency rooms.
All nurses have this voice lol
Natalya Babiy of
Natalya Babiy 😉
Natalya Babiy what?? That's a broad generalization. You need to go out more and spend less time in your bubble. Her voice is southern-like. anywho, enjoy your safe day.
Джинзó Аркайдия why'd you get all triggered?😂
True
she looks this gorgeous after a 12 hour shift? holy crap
tigercake558 that’s what I thought
jaajaj that was in my mind.. then again in Long Care some of us Nurses do 16hr shifts.. again Long Care (not as fun but very DEMANDING too) We look like zombies after a doble...
I think I need the flu!
tigercake558 yeah, not so sure thiscwas done RIGHT after a12hr
I think I'm in love. :D
My six year old son just left hospital because of the flu. This lady needs to be in every school and daycare. I had three days of worrying about my sweet baby dying from the flu. Thank you...every nurse, every clean up crew...every single person who helped protect my only son from being a statistic. Thank you for posting this video.
You guys, unless you are immunocompromised, very young or elderly, Tamiflu (the flu medication she is talking about) only shortens flu symptoms by ONE DAY according to evidence-based studies. So, if you are a relatively healthy individual, there is no need for the medications. DO the home treatments she is talking about. Good advice there. - FNP
victoriaaak Tamiflu may be the biggest scam big pharma has ever created. I chuckle when I hear about people stockpiling it, thinking it's going to save their life during an outbreak. Goes to show how brainwashed most people are by western medicine and that a pill will make everything better. Studies have shown that Echinacea is just as, or possibly more effective than tamiflu.
Natty Bumppo yeah I don’t like pills. The herb is much better. I don’t take herbs cuz I don’t have them and I’m a sixteen year old kid and my mom don’t like me buying stuff she thinks is stupid. Also get healthier up those omega threes eliminate red meat and switch to sustainable seafood and ditch milk it’s shitty for u. Eat lots of antioxidants and always choose whole grains when possible. Eat your legumes. Grow some Urad dal beans in your garden cuz u just can’t afford them here they’re super good for you.
i agree with you--altho i will say, after having been diagnosed with a variant of the H1N1 back in ~2009, reducing those symptoms by 12-24 hours might be worth it = P
I had the flu type a (H3N2 strand) just last month, I felt absolutely miserable and had 104+ fevers. I was prescribed tamiflu and on the 2nd day of taking it I felt great. I had only previously taken 2 Tylenol’s 3 days before. Not sure if it was the tamiflu or something else because I did exactly what she said to do (hydrate a lot) and rest. I’m also 19 and a healthy person, maybe just a strong immune system.
Ossicillium & Elderberry
Perfect combo for flu & flu-like viruses... cut it down in my house to THREE days being deathly ill (from hit by a truck, can't get out of bed sick to back on your feet and going to work/school on day 4)
No health risks, no side effects.
Tamiflu has a risk of death. Why don't the tell you that? Who would risk death for shaving off MAYBE 1 day of being sick?
Also, don't forget to thank the paramedics when they take you to the ER. They are also putting themselves on the frontline of the germ fight, and are exposed to quite a bit of nasty germies, too.
I work retail at a convince store I swear people are gross! There was a man who was coughing repeatedly w/o covering his mouth. I finally told him off I couldn't take it anymore. Some children have better manners
i was eating at food court and the guy behind the register, instead of sneezing into his arm, he sneezed behind him and I watched to customers literally just stare and walk away fast lol.
Mama Bleach yuck people are gross
so i ordered a coffee at a well known cafe - the MANGER sneezed into her hand then proceeded to make my coffee, and charge me for it. There was a sink right behind her. disgusted at myself for saying nothing, but made sure i gave review detailing this lack of hygiene practice and haven't been back there since
Golden! She deserves an award!♡
people dont go to the er if you've got the flu, stay home!!!
I love how all the doctors of TH-cam have expressed their two cents. It is horrible that a person can’t make a harmless video without all the keyboard warriors coming out in full force belittling her accent, her medical training, etc. Get over yourself! No one held a gun to your head and made you watch this video..🙄🙄
jennifer lofton I'm from Florida I got a bit of a twang in my accent as well
Nurses are the safety net for patients against incompetent doctors. She may not have the training of the doctor but, she has had TONS more experience with patients.
this is me That certainly *can* be true about Good, Intelligent, truly Caring nurses. They have way more hands-on time spent with patients.
However in my personal extensive experience being in the hospital, there are a lot of nurses with nasty attitudes that obviously dislike their job and the patients get the brunt of it.
Very rarely have I had nurses that were truly caring and professional.
Some were but only if they thought supervisors/coworkers were watching.
This is especially true during night shift.
I know they're working long hours but that is not the patient's fault.
While normally I would agree, she did make quite a big mistake. While it is essential to stay hydrated, one should NOT drink Gatorade while sick, as sugar suppresses the immune system. I'm sure she had good intentions, but that misinformation may cause some people to become more sick
Jay Kim Nonsense. Sugar is what the body runs on. It's what any carbohydrates one eats gets broken down into.
God Bless the good nurses of this world!
In Vietnam and home front at MCAS El Toro, God Bless our Nurses and Medics!
I think she's great! I love the her accent and inflections! Thanks for the share!
LMFAOOOOO THAT SNEEZE😹😹😹
She killed me with that lol!
12 hour shift with no breaks and only 1 doctor at night?? That should be illegal!!!
Risa - it is a violation of the federal wage and labor laws - UNLESS they pay you for that time. Problem is most nurses are going to take care of the patients first, breaks become few and far between. And, although nurses can make their employer pay for lost break time, the hospitals put enough hurdles in the way that most nurses don't try.
The real answer is to make the hospitals automatically pay for lost break time in areas with a track record of frequently lost time - such as all ERs. Regarding the one doctor, that's actually pretty normal. In larger hospitals he will have backup in the form of residents and the hospitalist. In the smaller ones, his backup will be the Doctors who are "on call".
Happens in ER all the time.
Long ago in a Republic far far away... Hospitals were run by cities, counties, and churches. Federal legislation mandated a specific number of hospital beds per 1,000 population per the census. This guaranteed that all parts of the country were prepared for a natural disaster or an epidemic.
Thank goodness we have been spared the burden of such a system... Thanks to Saint Reagan.
Y'all better learn to administer to your own, because hospitals are full of sick people, and are under staffed, with too few beds.
If you are sick, stay home. If you are infirm, stay home during flu season. Keep your infants at home like your grandparents did. Infants don't have immune systems.
There is no benefit in breaking a fever unless it is excessive. The immune system induces a fever in an effort to kill the virus. A moderate fever is a good thing in this instance.
Kirk Boswell Thanks for your insight! Still wish there was a better way...
Liz B Looks like it. My eyes have been opened for sure.
I'm a mother of 2 toddlers and once Christmas was over and flu started breaking out, I went into quarantine mode. I go grocery shopping without my kids, sometimes. I carry my own wipes around, we wash our hands as soon as we get home. We get company and I Lysol or bleach the crap out of everything once they leave!! I don't know how many times I've seen people sneeze into their hands at the grocery store and go straight to touching groceries, I steer away from their particles. Just stay home people or at very least wear a mask and wash you damn hand!!
Adi Solorzano - 😂😉☺ My mom, almost 90, LOVES her Lysol...... I hear about it if I forget to bring it home from the store. 😢
👏👏👏 I stopped cooking and stayed in my room when I got sick. No idea what it was but I live with my elderly grandparents and uncle. Really really would hate to see them sick. My brother became the cook and cleaner.
Kirk Boswell Smart woman
Hapezibah Skacy This season has been the worst, my mother in law, sister in-law and her kids all caught a very nasty strain. Sick for weeks.
Love love love!! They should air this as a regular commercial during prime time!
Very wise. Love you. And thanks for what you do.
God bless you girl. Thank you for all the work you do as a nurse. We appreciate it!
I thought the information was great. The hospital you work at is lucky to have someone who cares as much as you. I wash my hands a minimum 20-30 times a day. I’m a kidney transplant recipient, and have to be very careful due to the meds I take. I flew down here from Detroit to Ft Myers, and I wore a mask, safety glasses to avoid anything airborne. Don’t understand why people don’t wash their hands. I wash my hands after handling my own cell phone. You are a great asset to the hospital you work at, and they should be proud to have you as a nurse. I admire the hard work you and all nurses do. I pray that you weren’t penalized, after seeing your story on news, wasn’t sure what happened. Thanks again, I think you’re great. Pray you stay healthy.
Its our fault that the flu and other viruses, bacteria, get stronger each year. We take so much medicine for things the body can already handle naturally, that they become resistant and more deadly. I rarely take medication for any sickness, and my body takes care of it just fine. People are getting medicine for simple coughs, the only way you need medicine is if your in a life threatening condition or have a condition that requires constant medication. Now we have flu strains killing people within days, though the news makes it seem much larger than it is.
The flu has always had the ability to kill people
Ahhtaczy Is that a scientifically-backed fact or just a product of your own imagination?
JMoo Vinny A minimum of 20-30 times a day sounds like OCD to me.
Ryan Eshraghi Whatever it takes. Better safe then sorry.
Ginger/ginger ale helps with nausea.
VampedOut Word!
VampedOut Ginger root tea or cola syrup were my go tos for flu and pregnancy.
Ginger ale soda has very little ginger and a lot of sugar. Just use ginger root and boil for 5 minutes. Much better for you.
Yassssss!!!!! I am given promethazine & zofran for nausea for my chemo.. Doesn't work. But ginger ale does!
Reed's extra ginger beer has a good amount of ginger in it. The ginger is strong, but I feel better after I drink it.
Thank you for all you and your fellow nurses do. I've had my leg amputated and I've been in a coma. I see and hear what's going on ...in each shift. Y'all help so many and don't get a thank you one. Well THABK YOU and I wish y'all the best this flu season.
These are great reminders. If this offends you, you are not human, you are a marshmallow. STOP BEING SO DAMN SOFT
Pickeledcoconut The millennials are the snowflake generation.
ZaneyboyFTW I'm a millennial, but yes, you're right. Tired of everyone being so damn sensitive when they don't want to hear something.
I know they are WAY to sensitive they just need to build a bridge and hide under it.
You used a capital, TRIGGERED SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEREEEEEEEREEEEEEEEE
Pickeledcoconut shut the fuck up
Tell the flippin haters to clam it. You are a delight, Kat! Please keep your cheerful, perky, slightly sarcastic sense of humor. Whatever they're paying you, it isn't nearly enough. Sadly, plenty of people NEEDED even this elementary explanation. You absolutely ROCK. Don't change!!!
Jesse Wolf EXACTLY!
Jesse Wolf what's flipping
At the same time, acting like you're bearing the biggest cross to carry is a little insulting when the patients are the ones in agony not the nurses.
No one should have to act like they're high and mighty for dealing with abuse all the time, a properly functioning healthcare system would deal with these illnesses with clinics long before the patients have to sit in a miserable room to be miserable. (I suspect this is the biggest issue for you Americans out there)
A properly functioning education system would help people figure out how to know when they are dealing with something treatable outside of a hospital and a bit of support from some friends/family.
A properly functioning employment and work system would enable patients and workers in all fields to have paid sick leave so as to prevent the spread of flu and related illnesses and get their flu shots. And live healthier lifestyles that reduce the chances of getting ill at all.
A functioning hospital administration would have extra staff on hand and have more happy staff and less miserable ones pretending to be happy.
A better designed city would spread out the patients going to each hospital, proper design of car parks, public transport etc all make a difference.
No one needs to act like an angel if your system does the heavy lifting for you. We need less heroes and more intelligent people in Administration.
Mad Hatters in jeans true, but the people that go into a ER with a child with barely a fever, only being a small headache, and bringing along other healthy people into an ER room lack common sense so you can blame the system but you can’t not blame the sick people that go to an ER without staying hydrated, getting rest, and practicing good hygiene in general so that the sickness doesn’t get too bad
People like this should learn some common sense because they don’t have any
Kat here is a virtual Stargram for you!!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!
Prisilla Cope I agree with her
Thanks ma'am. You should be very highly appreciated!
she's right though. nurses do so much for us and all they get is backlash. they deserve so much more
I have see adults very often sneeze in their fucking hands !!!! Unbelievable !
I love it. People need these sarcastic tones to get it through their thick head. I thank you for your service
The fake sneezing killed me so much sarcasm lol
You don't sound sarcastic at all. I thought you had amazing restraint after a long shift. Thank you for the job you do, and the patience you have, to deal with utter stupidity on a daily basis. I've been a nurse for 37 years, and the things I've seen! Love it when babies are allowed to crawl on hospital floors, and are brought in for extended visits period. I could go on and on. Your voice is lovely, and I can tell you are a very sweet, caring, and professional nurse. Stay well, and may God bless you.
Sad thing is......she had to make this.
Common sense is dead.
Nihlus Marquee i know bro. This is like something are parents taught us as kids. Geuss a lot of people in the world need a reminder lol
I love her! I'm glad she's speaking out.
We love you! Thank you for your service, you and the military do amazing things to help us stay safe and healthy!
😂😂😂😂 guess common sense isn't so common anymore..
Karen Soares yup no common sense or morals
We like to say "common sense is contraband" at my work.
Karen Soares ;it's a lost trait!...
When my daughter got diagnosed with the Flu first thing i bought was a box of mask, hand sanitizer, and disinfectant spray and quarentine my daugther for a week.....people thought i was going over board but i was makimg sure no one else got sick. 😷
This nurse was on top of it👍
Thank you!
Her candor is awesome, God Bless the nurses and doctors especially in the ER.
You’ve got a point with people being upset about the wait. Being in the medical field myself, I swear, patients need to realize that we are in the healthcare field, not customer service. We’re there to take care of you, not kiss your ass and do whatever you want as soon as you ask for it.
I wish we could play this video on repeat in my ER! Lol
Organic niki = why can't you? I would rather watch her then CNN
This lady is Great!!! its a shame she got to talk to Adults like there in PreK for stuff they should already know
She’s a natural. Thank you for all you do! I hope you stay healthy.
You right in every word , people must protect them self and others from getting sick , and we know all of you working hard to help in the hospital, god bless you all and thank you .
She's so passive aggressive and I love it!
Shane Miner lovely but why didn't she just say all this to her patients instead of TH-cam 🤔
Degrades her patients on social media but I bet she doesn't refuse that paycheck those disgusting patients donated towards, you reckon?
Tracy c I’m sure she does educate patients on proper methods to avoid spreading illnesses. I don’t believe she is degrading any patients, she is telling people that are thinking about going into an ER not to unless really needed (as in a true emergency). And believe me she deserves more than just a paycheck, I know, you see I too am an ER nurse 👨⚕️ and not only do we get treated like crap by people we are helping we are exposed to everything that comes in, are on our feet for 12 hrs and often do not get a lunch break. Give it a shot and see how you like it. Bye now
Tracy c How do you know she hasn't said this to her patients and probally everyone else as well. As for degrading, uhmm no. She didn't give any names only gave examples. Besides, everything she said is the truth. Put yourself in her shoes for a moment and actually think about what she's saying and trying to convey instead of assuming things. There's a reason assuming starts with ass.
If you are sick, please don't take your germs to your local theater or restaurant just because you are bored or you don't feel like cooking for yourself. If you go to your local Walmart to pick up your prescriptions or cold medicine, please don't allow your snotty-nosed kids to meander throughout the toy section, touching every surface of the store. Employees at that facility have to go behind your kids and put things back in the proper place, which means they have been exposed to whatever your kids are spreading around. Keep your sick kids at home. Keep yourself at home unless it's an emergency. You will recover faster and you won't spread the flu all over your community.
Great six minutes! You looked a lot better after your rant. Good for you for letting it all out. Standing ovation!
I am totally HAPPY FOR THIS IMPORTANT INFO!!! GOD BLESS YOU REAL GOOD FOR telling us the TRUTH!!! I understand how you feel and I WILL be sure and pass this info along to others. PRAYING for nurses and doctors. PRAYER CHANGES THINGS!
Two words: Urgent Care
Thanks for being blunt, people need to hear it.
I’ve seen so many people sneeze into their hands or not even cover. I want to slap them every time. Cover your sneezes!! Lol.
Thank you for this rant. It’s amazing.
You crack me up but you’re right! Thank you for putting up with everyone.
I haven't had the flu since I stopped getting the flu shot thirty years ago
Cozmik funk rabbitt And I got sick for an entire month the one year I didn't get the regular flu shot. . .
Same I’m on my 16th year flu vaccine free
3 years for my son and has not had the flu sense I stopped the flu shot.
Cozmik funk rabbitt Me too. And my fibromyalgia is gone. I'm 61.
Me too stuff the flu jab
Personally, you were way to gentle! IF I have a reason to go to the E.R. I get a surgical mask! I drain the hand sanitizer! AND I go off on people on how to sneeze!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think you should have a You-Tube Channel!
P.S. Thank-you and all the folks you work with for the job you do!
You go girl!!!!! I feel like this every morning when I get off working night shift in a Children's Emergency room. What the is wrong with people? The sign clearly states Emergency Room. A flu test IS NOT AN EMERGENCY. FEVER "BARELY RIGHT NOW" IS NOT AN EMERGENCY. Your doctor's office opens at 8:00 a.m.
Theodore Roosevelt Heck two heart attacks one minor stroke, my friends tell me, "Ya' can't kill bad grass"! Lol!
Too gentle**
Same! Everytime I go to the ER or urgent care I get a mask. I've even once had a doctor ask me why I was wearing one cause it wasn't on my triage I had coughing or sneezing. I was like no, but I had a kid throwing up right next to me.....so didn't want to be a part of that shit. And I have a weird form of eczema on my hands, I often have at least one open sore on them. You better believe I used hand sanitizer three times in the hour I was out at the store today and washed my hands when I got home.
Walter Miner *too
6:45 long video AND I WATCHED IT ALL !! ☺
Thank you! 😁
Keep up the good work God bless you all! 💖
preach it sister--Also if you run a company praise those who don't infect everyone instead of demanding them to come in to work! Prayers
I'm so with you! I work in an ER and just amazes me when people say "I've been at this window for 5 minutes where were you? And then I inform them that we're working a code blue, and then they respond "Well I have shortness of breath!" without any labored breathing as they're saying it.
I have never heard a pt say..."I have shortness of breath!" It's almost ALWAYS "I can't breath".
yogagirlnh: code blue is medical emergency?
Nathan Bruce you're being sarcastic right?😂
But they reek of cigarettes while their complaining of shortness of breath...
So true! WASH YOUR DAMN HANDS!!! I live with 2 ppl one got the flu the other got pneumonia, I GOT NOTHING. WHY? Cuz I made sure to wash my hands and sanitize almost everything.
Brigitte B use sanitizer that kills viruses, and get the flu shot every year.
raleighman3000 lol oh trust me I have hand sanitizer in my purse, car, and at work.
Omg yes! During winter I clean even more bc I'm inside more often. And it's insane that in this day and age ppl need to be told to wash their hands.
Honestly me and then my family members get mad because I’m not sick and I’m energized
Lies
Just happened across this very helpful video at the perfect time. I have 2 loved ones heading to the er as I'm typing this and I was sure to give them some much needed advice on their way out the door. Thankful for all the nurses and doctors braving this season 😷
never had a flu shot, never gotten the flu, not gonna start now.
Castiel Ware good, the flu shot is nothing but poison anyways. I used to get them when I was a kid and I would get sick with the flu every single time..I haven’t had one since I was 9 and guess what?? Haven’t had the flu since..just eat healthy and your body will protect you with the immune system we were ALL born with.
@@justcallmemama91 Nonsense. Don't get the shot if you don't want to but stop encouraging others to be dumb. And stay home when you are sick. The shot CANNOT give you the Flu. It does start an immune response that can cause cause a short term, slight fever and lethargy. You'll be fine the next morning if you are as healthy as you think you are.
@Pirates Fate The shot I got the lest 2 years was "Quadrivalent". Counters 4 different strains. Big Pharma.....that's pretty funny. You're an ignorant, paranoid Goon.
@Pirates Fate Oh,I thought I was big pharma, now I'm Government? That seems like a downgrade. I'm so offended. Then you demonstrate your superior intellect by making a thinly veiled homosexual reference. Bet all the 5th graders fear you at recess.
Blessings to you then
The slow motion sneeze 😂😂😂
