I give 10 tips for new nurses and new grads. If you're a new nurse or new graduate these tips will help you in transitioning over to floor nursing. Real world nursing is completely different than school nursing. It's a different dynamic and it will take sone time transitioning. If you use the tips it should help you make that transition from school to real world nursing.

No.10 i needed it so bad.
Knowledgeable experienced nurses are sorely missed.
I’m starting my first job on Monday and I definitely don’t feel ready! I’m glad that’s normal and I’m gonna try to remember that.
Thanks so much for that list you rock love ya
I work in acute care. I always organize my dayshift morning as such.
1. Right after getting report I go to every room introduce myself and ask if there’s anything that patient needs right now(pain meds? Water?). I explain to them that I’m just saying hello and I will take care of anything they need immediately but that will be back a little bit later to bring them their medications, do their vital signs, and do their assessment. Taking care of the little things like pain and water or maybe giving them a urinal avoids multiple bells going off at the same time while you’re trying to do your med rounds.
2. After my first hello to everyone, I sit down and prioritize which patients need to be seen first. Usually it is the diabetics since they need to have their vitals, blood sugar check etc. before the breakfast trays come so those are the patients I go see first.
3. I prioritize assessment order by acuity and familiarity. A stable patient that I have had on my list for a couple of shifts(Familiar with their issues etc.), I will feel comfortable doing their assessment later in the morning as opposed to a patient that was just admitted through the night and is higher acuity or unfamiliar to me.
4. Once assessments medication’s and the round vitals is done, I will check and see if any of my coworkers are behind and offered to help them.
5. After lunch is when I take the time to do any complex dressings, or more involved focus assessments that I did not really have time for in the morning rush. If the patients need to ambulate then usually this will happen late morning early afternoon(Although where I work typically the physiotherapist will do a lot of this work, but on weekends nurses need to do it).
I mean there are literally hundreds of tips, but the biggest one is to remember that you were a team player and not to be afraid to ask for help or offer it if you can,
Thanks for sharing. Big help
Thank you for this! I will keep this in mind when I start in a few months
Thank you.
Thank you
Thank you. ❤🎉
8:17 This is also something you begin to learn in nursing school. Nursing is such a humbling experience, especially to those who have been straight A students their entire life lol
Learn cluster care right away - running back and forth is a HUGE time waster. I'm still learning to master this!
Joanne Papas I’m six months in and still struggling at times, but it really does get better. Hang in there. It’ll get better.
Nln
Has mm m I n
So as an example, it’s better to pass all your meds and then chart instead of passing meds to one patient and charting in between? I’m just starting out as a new nurse and really want to master efficient care
Not being afraid to ask questions is one of the first things I tell new nurses :)
#10 was really good advice, thicken your skin , sometimes I'm too sensitive I need to improve that, but of course the patient is still the most important.
Finally found a realistic nurse youtuber.
Number 10….So true, that worries me a lot but I’ll get it through
Thank you so much for this, from the bottom of my nervous new grad heart.
How is it now 9 mo later? In graduate in December 2020 and am pretty 😬 nervous!
😄😄😄
Some good points!! Especially not giving a damn. You're there to do a nursing job, not socialize or worry about the petty crap from others. Also, put your foot down over that new grad doctor that thinks they know everything and advocate for your patient!! 👏👏
Grow that thick skin! Absolutely, positively! Wished your video was available in 2003. Now, ready to retire, but thick skin grows over years and will be the advice I give to my new nurses. Great and succinct video. As a male nurse, so glad to come across your helpful and encouraging video.
“Some physicians are really really weird” 🤣😂 idk why that made me LOL. So true though.. thanks for your videos; I’m stoked to say after 1.5yrs on the floor, I’m entering the ER January2020 ✅ 😁
Sarah Connor welcome to EM ! Big Dick behavior
Come with me if you want to live, i'm literally from the future here to save you from the Terminator.
@@jons4934 yeah I was like wow this didn’t age well 😂
This was a damn good video. You laid it all out there no holds barred. As a brand new 50 year old male "older" nurse I feel like I can do well but am sure that I'll run into peers who think an older inexperienced nurse is going to be a problem for them. You can bet I'll be growing that thick skin from the get go because solid patient care and communication is my goal. Hopefully, some of these peers will come around after i can prove myself. Thank You Nomad Nurse!
THICK SKIN👊🏼🙌🏼
Number 10 hit home run for me.

I have one tip for a new nurse, or ANY nurses. There are a lot of jobs a nurse can do. You are NOT tied to a hospital! Until greed is addressed in healthcare, TAKE CARE OF YOU FIRST!
I am a new nurse. And u speak the truth. Thanks for the video.

I just finished 2 years of nursing school and am now working as a male nurse in home nursing. These tipps also help alot for nurses outside of the hospital. Thanks a lot!
I’m getting ready to begin my residency as a new grad ER nurse but luckily I’m going to be working in the ER I work at as a paramedic. I’m super nervous about starting and this video made me feel a lot better. Thank you!
Thanks!!! I need more of this ❤️
This is all so true! I went through it all as a new RN then after becoming an NP, it put me right back at square one on the learning curve. 😆
Thank you for this motivation , keep going sir
Thanks for sharing, it's very helpful.
Love your advice man! As new male nurse going to med surg unit this is very helpful as to prepare myself not just physically but mentally as well. Everything that you said was spot on and straightforward Definitely agree on the thick skin part as we are indeed in the middle of a "warzone" so to speak. can't take nothing personally or it will affect productivity and progress. Thank you for this video. Quality content!
Best video for new grads like me. Very clear and concise.Its scary but I know for sure I will be a pro one day. Thank you so much for giving us the courage.

New nurse here
Great shit brotha
Thank you for sharing your experience!!
Thank u
"Grow that thick skin!"
And let the church say Amen!🙌🏽
I agree on the sleep lol. But instead of 6 hours I need 8-9 hours of sleep.
I need 12.5! 😫lol😀
To "thick skin!"❤
Amazing advice - really needed to hear this. Esp #10 :)
New nurse here. Thank you for this video. It's nice to know the apprehension I feel is not abnormal. I'm an introvert and was self employed before nursing so trying to get used to the politics of a floor is the most stressful part of learning. Up to now, I have avoided difficult people but now I must deal with them as I get trained. Do you have a video or advice to help me get my head right?
How are you so far now? Im a new rn, will have orientation soo.. im expexting that i might cry at the beginning and will struggle. What can u advice that you wish you knew?
I am also an introvert about to graduate and I feel so much anxiety I want to cry!! I hope everything is going well for you 🤓
@@brenda71991 yes, I am thriving.
I'm a new nurse in the hospital on a tele/stroke unit (worked in psych for two years). The higher ups are really on my ass about a lot documentation errors and I'm feeling really discouraged.
How are you now? I hope everything's going on well with you. I'm a new nurse and really have this anxiety.
I just passed my nclex two weeks ago and nervous to enter the field. I need to learn how to grow some thick skin since I can be too sensitive lol. Don't be discouraged it takes time to figure out how to document. Have them give you samples to look at I feel that helps you get an idea what they are looking for or want you to implement into the charting.
You always provide on point information! Have to write things down regarding growing a hard skin, because it is never easy when two opposite characters clash.
~~ 5 hou rs of sleep? That would have killed me! 🥴 Lol ...
Thank you so much!! ToT
thank you for this video. your advise really hits me rightnow. hahaa
i’m in high school and have a few more years left before graduating so i need all the advice i can get!
Any advice on what unit to start in?
I love you thanks for talking about this things thick skin elephant skin 😂 good point!
Is there any special way of documentation
That tv on wasting electricity gives me big anxiety😁. Great advices tho
LOL
Anyone have a recommended app to keep track of certifications and expirations?
The thing about having "thick skin" is that there's really no reason for shitty behavior. If you (in the general sense) feel the need to spew a lot of garbage from your mouth, you need to rethink your life, regardless of what title or certification you have.
That tv on wasting electricity gives me anxiety
A little, OCD?
Lol really weird? New nurse here. How are they weird? Oh lord now I’m nervous 😩 😂
TIP # 1
Run 🏃♀️, get the hell out before it’s too late
😭💔😭💔I admit I got poor people skills… 😭
Yes grow a thick skin however a video advising experienced nurses on empathy & communication would be great!
Second day on a brand new ward will NOT see the brilliant time management you demonstrated Placement & having it mentioned four times in a loud voice is just cruel.
Especially when the Buddy is flapping around, not communicating Cares they're doing & treating you like a CRN.
