Gotta let those emotions flow. You are in a major transitional phase, being a new nurse, adjusting to a new schedule, seeing some really intense stuff at work, and just generally being a 20-something figuring it out. It's a lot! I'm so inspired by your positivity and can-do attitude. As you always say, "we got this!" Your patients and co-workers are lucky to have you on their team. As a pre-nursing student I'm grateful to have role models like you :)
Awww thank you for this! Your comment felt like a hug 💓
Oh Same girl ! How long is your program? Good luck x
I failed 3 times, i lost money to reviews that never helped but the major thing is that l've not lost hope
Wow!!!! congrats and thanks for the encouragement words for all the people who have not take the NCLEX yet. yes, it is a crazy test for sure. I also used Mis ELISABETH HELEN review material's. - I studied for 1 week and my test shut off at question 85. I cried too when I got my results. PASS
@@lorientheresa4844I'm sorry about your plight my friend but i was once in your shoes before i was recommended to Miss ELISABETH HELEN and that's how i passed My NCLEX exam
As a cancer survivor, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your compassion. I have such gratitude for all health care workers, but those who choose to go into oncology you all hold a special place in my heart. We as patients are going through the worst in our lives but our doctors, nurses, and all technicians are there going through it all right beside us. Bless you. 💗
Awww we love working with amazing humans like you! Thank you so much for your kind words 💕
I forgot what you are dealing with when you are at work 🥺 You showing emotion reminded me and made me grateful for mine & my family’s health. My dad passed away while waiting for a liver transplant 4 years ago and my mom had close relationships with a lot of the nurses that helped take care of him. I am sure all the families you help are super grateful for you and your kindness 💛🙏🏻
I remember doing my clinical rotations in nursing school - one was oncology pediatrics and I went home crying after every clinical. I felt so deeply for the kiddos and their families. I realized then that I couldn't work with children. Going on 35+ years of nursing! Great profession and is challenging intellectually and emotionally. You're doing a great job Kiara. Just know it gets a bit easier as your confidence and knowledge grows 💪🙂
the ending...we felt that through the screen 🥺 You are totally legit having those emotions; It's the hardest thing to witness people's suffering. ( + you must be tired AF too lol) when things get hard, remember the positive impact you have on your patients. You are beautiful in and out and so sooo strong my dear! ❤️
Thank you so much 💕
I worked night shift for 6 years and always felt nauseated from 3-6 am. I still love being a registered nurse 29 plus years later. Congrats on surviving the night shifts 🎉 You got this!
I really enjoyed this video! Sometimes you have to let those emotions out in order to care the best for your patients. I am thankful for nurses like you that truly care about the well-being of their patients and aren’t afraid to show it. I am excited to see you grow in your nursing career! I am grateful for my amazing parents for being able to send me to nursing school and I all the support they shower me with!
Thank you so much for watching & commenting...I think being in touch with our emotions can make us better nurses too! Hope school is going well and you're finding time to enjoy your summer too 🥰💕
Kiara! You are so inspiring. My Mom recently went through 6 rounds of chemo for her 2nd battle of breast cancer and I am so beyond grateful for all of the wonderful nurses that helped her get through these hard times. It's nurses like you, who truly care about their patients, that make a world of difference in a patient's life. You are amazing, keep going girl
Little sister had thyroid surgery Tuesday and stayed over night at the hospital (she has Down syndrome and with prior chemo treatment she’s super traumatized with hospitals) seeing you break down about kiddos makes me appreciate nurses even more!! Thank you for being sweet and compassionate because it makes such a difference with kiddos and their families during such a difficult time. ❤
This video reminds me of all the night shifts I used to do when I was nursing at the hospital. The nausea is definitely a thing! One thing that helped me get through the stretch of nights is to plan something nice at the end, such as catching up with a friend. I would find it super lonely going to work while everyone had finished working and was able to socialize.
I have stage 4 melanoma. I was diagnosed two years ago with only 3 months left to live. Here I am now still beating those odds. I'm grateful I'm still alive and grateful for stable scans! You're doing amazing Kiara!!! ❤❤
YOU GO GIRL!!! So crazy happy for you and sending you continued strength and fun memories your way :)
I’m grateful that I get to work from home. I always thought my health would keep me from having a good career and never even knew WFH jobs were so common until right before the pandemic. I went back to college at 26 and got 2 degrees. I am 31 now and I have my dream job. All of my hard work paid off and I’m very excited for the future. We made it 🎉
I think that’s one of the best things to come out of the pandemic! Good for you for manifesting your dream, proud of you!! 🧡
What is your dream job? 🎉
@@katiehenson9957 I work in heath insurance, I only make outbound calls for research purposes.
Absolutely adore pediatric nurses!( In the ER and inpatient) I’ve always had incredible passionate empathetic nurses for my son. Appreciate you all more than words can describe. ❤
Thank you for making me smile tonight! We love amazing moms like you 💓
I hope the transition to nights continues to go well! I am grateful for my two little ones, and cherish every night to help them fall asleep. I am excited and nervous for baby number three due in October. I hope you have a great week!
I can tell that you’re an amazing human being with such a king heart. You’re definitely in the right career, and I’m sure all the children and parents are so happy to have you caring for them !!
@@nairobifernandez96 thank you for this 🥹 hope u have the best weekend!
In life, people are so concerned with what they take, but we lose sight of what we need to give. Your giving of your skills and thoughts to your patients shows what is right and needed in this world.
So well put, thank you for this reminder ❤️
Today I am grateful for my son's health🤍 he has a congenital heart disease and had to spend the first 6 months of his life in the CICU as well as 3 open heart surgeries but now 2 1/2 years later he's home and thriving 🤍 as a nursing student and a medical mom I know the huge impact nurses can have on someone's life specially when we feel so vulnerable in those hard moments. You are an inspiration and I know you're the light in these kids and parents lives. ❤️
I plan on being a nurse when I’m older! I was born 2 in a half months earlier, so I’m trying to be a nurse because nurses helped me! Can’t wait to see your jounery as a nurse!
That’s an amazing reason to be a nurse!! Thanks so much for watching, keep up the good studying :)
Brand new PICU nurse thank you for sharing your raw emotions!! I’m so grateful for the chance to be a nurse for kiddos on some of their worst days for them and the family
You're doing great. Dealing with stage 2/3 breast cancer, so thank you for getting in the boat with your patients. I'm grateful for my sweet cat.
Keep posting vlogs like this!! I’m a new grad nurse starting nights in a week and it’s so helpful and comforting seeing someone else going through the same thing I will be 🫶🏼
as an upcoming 4th year nursing student, watching you is so motivational!! you are awesome kiara🤍
I’m grateful for the opportunity to get to go to college! I’m starting as a freshman this fall and i’m grateful to be able to afford my new laptop, housing, and dorm necessities/decor!
Congrats x
Ahhh so excited for you to start your big college adventure! Soak up all the mems ❤️
I love watching your nursing videos. It gives me ideas as a licensed RVT (vet tech) who does work in emergency as well as the emotions that I similarly go though too. When you started crying I started crying and wanted to jump through that screen and huggy you and tuck you into bed. Keep doing an amazing job.
I def cried with you! My two nieces have both stayed weeks up in Portland due to health conditions that kiddos shouldn’t have to ever experience. So thankful for all the nurses who push through each shift and take care of everyone! 💓✨
So lucky to help care for the most amazing families, thank you for watching! Hope your nieces are doing well ❤️
I‘m so thankful for my Friends and Family because they always support me! I‘m currently in hospital and without them fighting would be so much harder. Gotta try to love life again, stay healthy everybody!
I'm grateful for my family. ❤
Kiara you are special and one of a kind and people are lucky to be cared for by you and you are lucky to care for them.
Wow congratulations on making it as a nurse!!!!!!!!! I just started following your channel
Thanks for this. I am a day shift nurse, and this is helping.
It's really refreshing to see you express and feel your emotions about the job you have and love that you share a little bit of that life with us. Been watching all your vids from the start and I'm grateful to being able to witness your continuing journey. Wish you all the best towards all of it for you and can't wait to see more!
Glad you can relate...it's definitely a part of this profession even though it's not talked about all the time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a part of my story for all these years ❤️
Thank you for this video. I was just talking to my friend yesterday about needing to be more grateful about life in general, so this was confirmation. Definitely just got a new subscriber
It’s great that you can show the realities of your nursing job.
Best sleep mask ever! I've had mine for years.
You’re doing great work! Thank you for normalizing emotions that come alone with hard emotional work. Super proud of you ❤
Hi Kiara! I’ve been watching a lot of your old videos as they’re my comfort and I’m so happy to see you posted!! I’m so proud of you and your journey has been nothing short of incredible!! So proud xoxo
Thank you Franny!! I'm so lucky to have you coming along for the ride!
I'm grateful for my health and education in healthcare as well. It's difficult working with patients who experience difficult things, but we can make a difference in their lives for the better, which is rewarding to me. Love the video and I'm excited to see more of your night shift videos!
So true!! Thanks so much for watching & commenting, hope your shifts go well this week :)
You're doing great Kiara :) One small thing that I always forgot to be grateful of is that I am privileged enough to bribe myself to do things, just like you did in this video. I am thankful that I can afford to buy drinks outside, I know some people don't. Thanks for leading me to think about the pros of life rather than the cons :))
I am grateful I am I. A profession that I can love people so well and give them the care that they truly deserve! Also my dog for recharging me when nursing is draining ☺️
Yes!! You really have to build in self care in this profession!
I work the night shift as well. I go to bed between 3-4am (sometimes 5) get up at 0930 with my hubby, see him off to work, (at 1030 am) go to my room and get myself ready for bed, then go to bed until about 1730 ( I live 10 minutes away from my hospital), this is on my first day, second and third days, I come home eat breakfast, shower, hang out with the pup, and try to stay up until hubby gets up ( doesn't always work, on these days I'm in bed by 0900) I sleep in the spare bedroom on these days because I do not want to wake him up. Then I get up at 1730 and start my day getting ready for work. You will find your groove. I am grateful I get to be a nurse and help people in their darkest times.
This is so helpful to hear what other people do! And also so inspiring to see how you find balance in your busy day...I feel lucky to help as well despite the funky schedule haha
I'm grateful for the peds oncology nurses that helped us through the loss of my big brother to ewings sarcoma when I was a kiddo ❤
I’m so sorry for your loss.
Whoa I cannot imagine doing a night shift and am very proud of you! I'm grateful for my friends, family, and good health!
Such good ones! I felt the same way but it is surprising what you can get through some times!
I graduate nursing school next week. I did my practicum in pediatrics and absolutely loved it! I’m not sure where my first job will be but I’m hoping PEDs
That emotional ending was so real 💕
OMG SO SOON! Big congrats to you for completing one of the biggest challenges and rewards of your life. Excited for you to actually get paid for clinical hours, in the mean time celebrate and make all the fun memories before your nurse schedule starts :)
Hi Kiara! I am starting nights this week on a High Risk Postpartum unit! I am so grateful to be healthy enough that I can take care of others. Thank you for this awesome video, it has helped me plan out my sleep schedule! Would you do a "what's in my nursing bag video? Also, I love your Lulu backpack! Can you share the link?
Kiara, you absolutely rock! You are such an inspiration and I’m so grateful to get a glimpse of your day to day life. ( I hope that answers the question of the day, because I’m truly grateful to get to know you through your videos) ❤️
Aww I am so grateful for you! ily ❤️
As a nurse who has done permanent nights for 17 years another way to do it is go to bed at midnight or 1am get up at 7am go about your day then back to bed at midday. I start work at 1900 so get up at 1630 to have dinner see my hubby and son and get ready for work and leave at 1800 for work.
We love you so much Kiara!!! Thanks for sharing this, i used to work at a hospital too and it was heartbreaking sometimes. I loved the video, we missed you!
Aww I love you! Thank you so much for watching!
Welcome to my world. I work in retail from Sun-Thurs 10p-7a and my sleep is split too. I try and sleep 9:30a-2:30p, eat and then sleep 6p-9:30p. I’m use to it for the most part but I love when I get off I can do errands or doc appts with no crowds or hassles. I’m so grateful to even have a job like I do in retail and during corona time it didn’t interrupt it. It help my boyfriend and I close on our dream house in 2020. Hang in there girl and I’m so happy u take us along for the ride and trust me you’re not alone in any of this. U laugh, we laugh..u cry, we cry..We’re family ❤
Wow that’s actually so inspiring to hear and such a good point, there are some perks to working a unique schedule 💓
So I work 2p-6a ( 6:30) sometimes and that’s a 3 day span and I sleep from like 730 -8 to 12:30 and get ready to go back to work. I usually get 4 hours sleep
Hey.. I hope u see this msg… I just wanted to say I love ur all ur videos a lot … I take these as inspiration to organise my daily life as well .. I am not an expert like u but I am trying my best … lots of love from India 💜😊
I am thankful for a family who have supported my weird throughout my life without knowing that the "weird" actually was autism
Aww family is everything ❤️
I have the same sleep mask and I love it! I work in staffing for my local hospital so I work weird hours as well.
Proud of you Kiara! I so love watching your videos. Keep on keeping on! :)
Thank you so much!
Congratulations on your first night shifts! The nausea is real though- bananas and plain yogurt really hit the spot in the morning after work and forcing myself to eat a solid portion helps me sleep longer!
Ohhh that sounds so good! Thank you for the inspiration!
You have to let the emotions flow
Yea sometimes you just can't hold them in...especially after being up all night!
My daughter will be having her first night shift on her new nursing job after graduation. Hoping to learn tips on how to support her!
Can you do a whats in my work backpack !!
I am grateful for the job in the Law firm I am right now. The people are really nice, talkative and a good work environment. Even on the days with a lot of work and stress we are able to help each other. Have a nice day Kiara
It is crazy how a good work environment makes everything better! So happy for ya!
Just in case it might help you, I got some temporary black out curtains (with little Velcro strips you cut) on Amazon that I can take down and put up when I choose (I live in Canada rn, and it gets light so early in the summer). Also have one of those little alarm lights that warms up gradually before I have to wake up.
Ohh that's a great idea and tbh I didn't know they even made those! So far my eyemask has been a total lifesaver but I will keep that in mind as a solid plan B!
Good morning Kiara happy Thursday morning and I hope you having amazing day today and I loved your weekly day vlogs
Happy Thursday to you too!! 💓 thanks for watching!
@@KiaraMadisen your welcome sending you hugs ❤️ 🤗
grateful for health care workers who wear masks!
Congrats Kiara! ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!! We did it!
i’m so proud of u! ❤Thank you for replying! ❤❤❤❤❤
This filled my heart with joy❤
Aww thank you for watching & commenting!
Grateful for my family and that I am about to start nursing school Aug 28 😮
I am grateful and bless for another day! 🦋 ....You are amazing!!
Me too!! Thank you so much for watching & commenting!
You know I'm excited to watch. I set my alarm for 7am PST.
Omg you’re the best!! Hope you like it :)
Can you make an update video with how this affects your social life and how you’ve adapted?
oh yes....updates to come!
I'm on a 6-6 schedule in a completely different field but I'm about to go to night shift so trying to hype myself up haha Been forever since I've done nights!
It's so helpful to watch others go through it to! Thanks for watching & I'm sending you the best daytime sleeping vibes :)
Yesss you’re back I been constantly checking 🫶🏾 I been in the hospital since February and I discovered your videos one day on my feed beginning of February and I been hooked ever since I have no interest in the medical but I love watching you 🥹 it definitely brings me peace and has me in a good mental space! Thank you for the good content🥰
Aww sending all the hugs your way! Thanks for following along…another video is 75% edited so hopefully you won’t be waiting as long :)
Where did you get that green chair!?!? I need one!
I worked night shift for a year and everyone is different when it comes to how they sleep. I would go home and have a normal after-work time. I would eat watch tv and needed the time to wind down or I couldn't sleep, but I knew people who would do what you did in this video. They would go to sleep right when they got home and wake up earlier to do things before work. Do whatever feels right for your body. It is a weird world, and you just have to feel it out.
It is so interesting how everyone is different....by the time my third shift hit I definitely feel like I can stay up, but the rest of the time I am running to my bed ASAP 😂
Where did you get your Hydro flask cooler bag and what size and color do you have ?😊
Very nice job, Kiara!❤❤
Thank you!
I need to know this! Haha excited to watch it! 🎉
Hope you like it!
💓
Where are your underscrub shirts from? They’re so cute!
yes i will be waking up early on my day off to watch this 😤
Omg no sleep in! You deserve it!
what is your schedule? do you only work 3 days a week 12 hour shifts?
I am thankful for the presence of Christ in the difficult and painful things. We don’t have to go through it alone. ❤
Did you get watch any of Katie Mack’s videos she posted a few months ago?
I still need to catch up…we usually just chat via FaceTime so I know what she’s up to 😂
Tip to keep your eye mask on: Grab the top half of your hair (like a half-up/half-down section), put the strap of the eye mask in between the two hair sections, and then let the top half of your hair down! Works like a charm!
GENIUS. 🙌
You got this!!
Thanks love!
I am grateful for my family/ church family and friends and special Olympics and I am grateful for following your journey from college to following your dreams of being a pediatric nurse
Aww I am so grateful for you following along as well! So many wonderful things to be grateful for!
What’s your Starbucks order? Whatever you got looked sooooo good 😊
i'm really into the iced caramel macchiato game right now!
Good video
Thanks!
lots to learn, but you get accustomed to it, keep on nursing
Thank you! Will do :)
I’m grateful that I’m in a stable financial position that has made it possible for me to move away from home and my relationship with my parents is there for much much better.
I'm so happy for you!! Keep finding your happiness and new home away from home :)
How are you
where is that trail !!
It's actually a small little shortcut in between street levels by my parents house! It's a pretty little spot though :)
who's the other person in the "we"?
Hi Kiara
Hi!! 👋
❤❤❤❤❤
Never be sorry about your emotions. We are all human, even if we don’t want to admit it.
Miss 😢you
Love you 💕
Are you a Pediatric nurse?
😘😘
Ily 😘
Have you edited someone else's footage? It's fun. It test your creativity.
I barely have time to edit my own haha
Stretch 😉
What do you think of the mass graves at Al Shifa and Al Nasser Hospitals containing the bodies of healthcare workers like yourself with their arm's and legs zip tied together, and patients executed with catheters still inside them? I have friends who are doctors and nurses who survived the sieges of those hospitals and are now choosing to work at European Hospital despite being targeted because their medical skills are slowing the gen0c!de of their people- some walk 3 hours from refugee tents to work. Just wondering how you feel about children with cancer being denied evacuation for treatment, being systematically starved, crushed, shot, and b0mbed? Healthcare workers with platforms have been worryingly silent.
Poor baby
