I’ve been a nurse for just over a year now and I am so burnt out. It’s really bad and I am STRUGGLING. I needed this video. I am really glad I found your channel!
Thank you for your hard work💗
thank you for your service!
I have been a nurse for 7 years and have tried many different settings. Nothing is working. I get more and more burnt every day. Unfortunately it’s easy to get stuck in it in a small town because it pays relatively well.
If you’re young…..get out now. Do something else.
Hang in there. You can do it ❤
Although I love this entire conversation, I wrote down and will share: "exhaustion is not a requirement for rest." Thank you for the fantastic advice and ways of thinking. Very valuable.
So glad it resonated!
I threw my hands up and quit. Graduated in 2022. Eaten alive is a real thing. I think it's time to unionize. Four months in a clinic, 8 months in a hospital. Going to try home care next. Been home 3 months now and still don't feel right.
I'm a nurse tech in a rehab facility and have always done geriatrics LTC. We techs or CNAs whatever we're called now are way more prone to burn out. At least in facilities because not only do we do the hardest dirtiest work as the grunts but the lack of respect that the field has for us and the fact the public has no idea who we are. It's crazy. During this pandemic we only hear about nurse but that's not too unusual. We stand in the shadows. You rarely hear about them or even from them. It's like we don't exist and after 28 years it's time for me to fly. I made a lot of money for a lot of facilities because we are the money makers and been looked down on the whole time. At least nurses can vent and are recognized and never do you hear a nurse tell anyone that they have a lackey to do the hard, dirty stuff.
Ugh I feel burnt out from working at a call center. We are not only burnt but underpaid. I am working on my bachelors in business can’t wait to make money .
What a great video!! As a counselor who has come out of retirement to do Teledoc and EAP Counseling and Life Coaching to help people struggling with anxiety and burnout, you have just solidified the value and my need to offer even more specialized services to healthcare workers!. Great resources! Thanks so much!
Linda, thank you so much! That means so much to me!
Beautiful podcast. Good insight. Thank you ❤
When a superior makes you feel bad for saying no is what makes it hard. I know I’m so burned out and I have no self-compassion. I’ve pushed myself in nursing for 18 years. Experiencing bullying and watching incivility all around me…..it has destroyed my identity. I just don’t have the heart for it anymore but I don’t know what to do now. I pushed myself through a MSN thinking it would put me on track to a better space, but it hasn’t happened.
Loved your video! Thank you for the amazing views ! REALLY ENJOYED IT!
Soo needed to hear this 💕🙏🏼
You are so right. Thank you for the great video
I agree, Kelsey over at Whole Life Nurse, puts out some great information.
As a new nurse this is gold. This was the valuable wisdom I needed to go into my 3rd week.
A big one I’m noticing is boundaries with co-worker gossip
I learned real quick not to trust any of them because whatever you say will spread like wildfire. They are not your friends 99%, and it should stay a professional coworker relationship is what I have to remind myself. It can be tempting to think they really have your back, but in reality most of them are fake and will throw you under the bus so quick if they benefit from it.
It's certainly tough to deal with. Don't initiate it, and when the conversation starts to go there, my tip is to counter the negative thing they said with a positive one while steering the convo elsewhere. "Omg Melissa is the worst at report. It takes her FOREVER to get through 3 lab values.." .... "Yea. Did you hear she's going back for her master's? I'm thinking about getting mine. Not sure if I wanna do the NP route tho". It creates an organic conversation transition. Another tip is to also be engaged and really interested when not talking about gossip, and then if the convo goes there, seem incredibly bored or disconnected by it. It's not as fun to gossip with someone who doesn't care or who always changes the convo to something else. We tend to think people should take this huge stand when someone gossips, but it's so subtle and small comments, so a big stand looks like a disproportionate response... or you don't really realize how uncool it was until reflecting later. Little nudges of steering the convo elsewhere and changing how entertained we are by the topic goes a long way!
Get to know the right nurses who will become your real ride or die. Take time to get to know ppl. we all need support at work its important. obviously not everyone will be your friend weed out who is who!! Gossip will be everywhere, its hard to avoid but don't feed into it, listen it tell you alot about ppl!!
Thank you for your service Eden!
I pick up no shifts and am still burnt out and haven’t even been a nurse for a year
I don't blame you at all. We recorded this pre-covid and the game has changed substantially!
I am a recent new grad RN who attended nursing school during &LPN for 22 yrs I do find that I go through bouts of butn-out. However now it feels different this time. Thank you for the video. Very helpful in vs;
Validating many k feelings. Many times I press on through findinthat later it resurfaces in response to another situation. If one does this enough times it turn into a giant ball of ugliness. I am forever grateful for this video.
My facility is forcing staff to work overtime. It is really exhausting and impacts the nurses mentally.
Oh boy, that's tough. Overtime is really not cool, and I know that requirement is a dealbreaker for many.
Nursing is a job. If I want to give my skills for free (and I might do that someday), I’ll join a medical mission.
Thank you for this video. I am a nurse and it really helped me.
Thank you for your service!
In case you didn't write it down Kati she said "Kati has a great way of saying things that make perfect sense" and she is right!
This is excellent 🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
THIS VIDEO IS WORD FOR WORD
Hi I’m so glad I found this video. I’m very interested in attending your assertiveness class you mentioned but I am not an ICU nurse. Is there any way around this or I can just take that specific class? Thank you so much.
Hi Nicole! I haven't created that course dedicated to assertiveness alone yet, hoping to do so in 2021. Breakthrough ICU and the New Nurse Master Class both have modules on assertiveness!
I am just so tired
I am a tech right now and I get a lot of shit from coworkers about calling off. I have FMLA and there is weeks where I can't balance school, work, and my home life. And sometimes I have to use it and it kills me to put myself first. I hate having to cut my hours, I hate doubting my ER but I just can't. I also have coworkers that pick up all of the time for the money and it is so sad because most of the time it is taxed and they don't get any extra money.
Can't image the stress nurses are dealing with during this pandemic
I WILL BUY THE SELF-COMPASSION COURSE, MA’AM!
Great to know! Thank you! I've begun crafting the curriculum :-)
Kati Kleber just purchased the master class today! thanks for all you do, homie!
