I just started school and this is just me in the future watching you I’m so proud of you girl ❤
Thanks my girl. Good luck in nursing school 😊
Enjoyed your content girl! I just graduated from nursing school, so I definitely agree that having positive affirmations helps with keeping those peaceful mental vibes
Thanks girl, and congrats on graduating from nursing school. Have you taken the NCLEX yet? If not, good luck
@@AysiaTiona Not yet, still waiting for everything to be processed, but thank you!
I'm in my second semester of nursing school and I already know bedside is not something I want to do forever. Really want to be a CRNA. So that's what I'm shooting for. By the time I'm 40 I should be done 😂. Keep going. Stay positive even when things get tough. Some ppl don't have the same opportunity or mindset to elevate their selves. So I always say I'm blessed! Congrats sis!!!
Same, I’ll see you at the finish line girl. CRNA has always been my end goal, but thank you so much. And good luck in nursing school. Finish strong, then go crush the NCLEX 🙏🏾
@@AysiaTiona I'll love to watch your journey to CRNA since you're further than me!!! I love success stories. Especially black women like me. See u at the end girl 🥳❤️
@@nesamick8229 Aw, well stay tuned then girl. I'm starting my journey soon 🙂
Love this 🤍
you got my sub, I support black women getting to the bag
Aw, thanks. I appreciate you 🙂
So interesting to see your day in the life! I never really knew what a work day looks like for medical professionals, since I work nowhere near the healthcare field. So cool!! (Also, big fan of the music choices.) 😊
Aw, thank you so much. I’m glad that you enjoyed the video 🙂
Good luck. Retired 8 years ago after 32 years at the bedside.
Wow, that’s amazing. Thank you so much, and Happy Nurses Week 🙂
@@AysiaTiona Good luck when you take boards.
Thank you for the video! Keep giving us more content. I’m 4 months away from being done with my ADN.
I def will. Congrats 😊
Congrats
@@anglecke6543 Thank you 😊
I’m 6 months away
I’ve been a med/surg nurse for 16 years and it’s insanely tough work. My recommendation is to take a training position for ICU asap-even if it means going to another state for the training. I work in California and the hospitals in the Bay and Sacramento area very rarely offer training positions for growth.
Honestly, I don’t know how you did 16 years, but I commend you for it. It’s so crazy, but I’m getting my experience here for a little, then I’m applying for the ICU. How is the nurse patient ratio in Cali?
@@AysiaTiona we have five patients. I know we are lucky in that aspect, but we usually have high acuity patients with no help. We might have 1-2 Aides for the entire floor but they are so busy themselves that is feels like we have no help.
@@rw4022 Yeah, the other night there were only 2 aides on the floor. I started with 2 vented patients, and an independent, then I transferred 1 vented patient to CEU. Why did they send me 3 new admits back to back, I felt like I wasn’t going to make it through the shift. I felt so defeated 😞
I'm 7 months in and girl its been stressful as hell. Little potty breaks, no lunch because the unit is so busy. 7-8 pts is the norm now. Pre-shift anxiety crippling me because of the stress of the unit etc. I'm really over it
Girrrrrrrrrl, when I tell you I felt this. Same, I can’t wait to switch specialities. This ain’t for me 😩 If it wasn’t for me needing to get experience, they wouldn’t see me at all 😭
@@AysiaTiona wow, I appreciate your honesty . Please keep that same energy . I've been a nurse since 1999 and I feel the anxiety all the time . It increased after the pandemic. So I went back to school and obtain my bachelor's degree in something else but nursing keeps calling me back . I'm going for my masters soon nursing . Lol. It's a love hate thing . I love my patients, I hate corporate bullshit ... Staff shortage, not enough supplies . The nurse patient ratio, etc . Those in corporate need to be on the floor and see what it's like .
@@susanjackson1218 I agree with everything that you just said lol good luck on your Masters 🙂
I enjoyed this! I love “come to work w me”videos too! I’m having a marathon.
Lol me too. Thanks 😊
Loved the vlog! I’ll be starting nursing school in August and you’ve inspired me that much more to keep going!
Aw, I’m so happy. Good luck in nursing school, stay focused, and don’t get discouraged. You got this!
Congrats! I’m a new grad as well. I start my new job in the ICU in July. So happy for you and I love the vlog.
Thank you so much… I’m so jealous of you lol ICU is my next stop though. Congrats, and I wish you the best in your new position 😊
@@AysiaTiona aww thank you so much. I love critical care it was where I felt the most comfortable during my clinical rotation. Keep up the videos I’m definitely enjoying them.
@@jshacorro Same, I worked in the ICU as a NA for 7 years but idk I guess I just wanted to see what med surg was like first. ICU is def my niche, but I have to give the med surg nurses their flowers because the workload is insane. Also, thanks for subscribing 😀
@@AysiaTiona Yes definitely, because they get a mixture of everything. Oh, and let’s not talk about the patients who become semi-permanent patients because of placement issues. I eventually want to be a nurse anesthetist so it was important for me to just transition to the ICU. You got this girl and no problem. I’m gonna follow you on Instagram next. Happy Belated Nurses week😘❤️
@@jshacorro Aw, that’s my goal too. But girrrrl tell me about it, so annoying… And ok, I’ll follow you back. Happy belated Nurses Week to you as well 😊
Starting classes next month! I’m excited I’m going to graduate this time
Aw, congrats! Stay focused, and don’t give up. You got this… It’s temporary, you’ll be happy when you’re finished
I graduate in a few weeks and watching theses gives me motivation to pass all my exams and NCLEX because I really want to become a nurse
Aw, and you will be. You’re almost there! Good luck on the rest of the semester, and with the NCLEX 😊
😊 thank you
Yes girl , do it like a pro!!!!!!
Thanks boo 😌
Great vlog! Girrrrl pharmacy should be coming to you. I will def be buying that book. Your hair looks so nice & neat and that nail color is so pretty!
Girl, they come and forget to bring stuff, so I have to go down, especially if I need it immediately lol but thanks my love. I appreciate it…
Thank you for putting good music to your videos 🙌
Thanks, I try ☺️
Great video and congratulation on your new journey as a nurse.
Thank you so much 😊
Oh lawd and you work morning shift. Bless it ! Great vlog 🙏🏾🤍
Lmao I work night shift, my job just makes you train on day shift first. I couldn’t do day shift girl, I would lose it 😭
I like working weekends too cause there’s no traffic and no administration to get on my nerves 😭
Fr 🤣
Great video! Much success to you
Thanks darling! Appreciate it
Congratulations girl! I have to see if you have an updated video on your pros and cons before I ask you for one lol. I just got hired in Med Surg, but as an LPN, so I'm just trying to get some insight. Good luck girl.
Yeah, I just posted a video the other day, go check it out. And thanks girl, I appreciate you 🙂
@@AysiaTiona I did. Thanks girl!
My first job was medsurg. I spoke with several nurses who advised me. I became a nurse on that floor.
I know, a lot of nurses will tell you get med surg experience before you go into a speciality, but honestly, you don’t have to. If you know what specialty you want to be in, I think that you should just go for it. But, I wanted to get the experience. I’m grateful, but med surg isn’t for me. I’m going to the ICU 😂
Just graduated a month ago with my cna certificate and I’m working at a assistant living facility. When I go back for LPN assistant living and dialysis will be my specialities
Sounds good girl. Good luck 🙂
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉 🥳
Thank you 😊
I enjoyed watching the vlog
Thank you. I'm glad that you did
Congrats hun!!!
Thanks love 😊
Great video!!!!
Thank you 😊
Enjoyed the vlog
Thanks darling. I appreciate it
Congratulations as a new grad Nurse. I'm so happy for you. 😊 I like this video. Your very pretty 😍 You should keep making videos like this. Im graduating from highschool in June. And then I'm going to Community College for Nursing. I can't wait to be a Nurse like you. My goal is to be a Nurse Practitioner. I can't wait to wear scrubs too. Also I think I'm gonna buy that book. I like your scrubs and your eyelashes and your hair. I also like the henna I that's what it's called the flower design on your hand. I wanna get one too. Have u thought of travel nursing? Do you have your associates in nursing or bsn? Also do u want to get your masters or doctorate in nursing ?😍🤗💞👩🏽⚕️🤗🥳😍😍💖💙
Aw, thank you so much my love. Congrats on graduating from high school that's major, and I'm happy that you have your goals all figured out. I wish that was me in high school lol... Yes, I'll def be doing travel nursing in the future. I have my BSN, and I want to go back to school to get my DNP in Anesthesia 😊
@@AysiaTiona that's really cool and lit. 👻 💞😊😍🥳👩🏽⚕️
Wow, it’s crazy to see you at the beginning lol
Love your hair 💜💜
Thanks boo 💙
Just found your channel and I really enjoy it!! What school did you go to? You look familiar lol!! RN gang 🥳🥳
Hey girl, thanks for subscribing. I went to Mercy College. Where did you go?
Hey I loved the video! .. I am a MA student and eventually will work my way into becoming a Nurse as well , so as you were drawing the medication don’t you usually leave medication down and wipe the top of it before drawing it up? With anti-septic wipes
Congrats and good luck, but yes you can use an alcohol pad. Good catch!
I use strawberry jelly too you got my sub
Haha, thank you 😊
Same, whoever doesn’t use strawberry jelly is insane! 😂
Thank you 😢
New subscriber I am also a new grad in med surg
Thanks for subscribing. How are you liking med surg so far?
I've been a caregiver for my mother through freedomcare for a year now and honestly im burned out probably because my mom never lets me take off even when im sick
I’m so sorry to hear that. Have you tried applying for that service where they are able to give full time caregivers a break? I can’t remember the name but if you Google it, I’m pretty sure you can find it
Your hospital doesn't have a machine that pharmacy can send meds through? It's super convenient. Also, where's your blue scrubs from? I'm starting as a new grad in July and need some.
Yeah, we do but it’s just faster to go, and pick it up if you need them ASAP, and my scrubs are from Figs
Good video! You're allowed nails? we are only allowed clear nails, cant even have any sns or acrylic even if its short. Goodluck in nursing!!
Yes girl. Thanks, same to you 😊
smart and beautiful, period
Can you do a video of how you like med surg bc I’ve heard so many horror stories lol
Yes girl, I got you. I’ll record, and drop it soon
@@daritzatrinidad581 I wanted to get a little more experience being on my own before I put this video out, but I’ll def record it in about a week or 2, and post it. I have so much to tell y’all 😩
I love your videos
Thanks 😊
@@AysiaTiona you welcome
I passed my written exam just gotta take my skills test
Congrats, and good luck on the skills portion!
Is there even jelly on that sandwich?! 😳😂 lol
Lol I know right 😂
I just can’t get up for 5 😭
I Am looking to getting knuckle tattoos on my hand , how does your job feel about by our henna tattoos
They don’t say anything to me, if anything they’re always complimenting me on them lol
@@AysiaTiona lol ooh cool thanks for the reply ❤️
What was that beeping in the med room does that drive you crazy when you're trying to think and draw up meds?
Lmao it’s call bells on the unit. If a patient is ringing they want us to be able to hear it anywhere, and yes it drives me nuts, but I’m use to it now
@@AysiaTiona Thanks for answering! Wow! They need to change that!
@@leslie3483 Lol you're welcome, and I know 😩
Hi Aysia, I have watched your video. May I ask you a question. Am I wrong that I see you have 2 jobs as a new grad nurse at the same time. If so, how you can handle it?
I only had one job during this video but now I do flex staffing as well. It’s not bad because I work 3 12-hour shift per week, and just pick up flex shifts when I feel like it. Once you get the groove of things you’ll be fine…
Where did you get your background sounds from?
Epidemic Sound, and SoundCloud
I am from kerala.i got job in East Kent canturbery.is it expensive to live.could you please reply me?
If you don't toast your bread when making PB&J, then what is you doing bb?
Lmao I’ve never tried that before, but I was packing it for work. You know that you can’t toast no premade sandwich if you’re not going to eat it right away 😭
@@AysiaTiona 😭Girl you gotta lightly toast the bread first and then spread the PB&J *chef’s kiss*
Song?
I’m ah male Im bad at spelling I’m scared of the paperwork work side how is the paperwork
It’s ok, you’ll get use to it if you’re doing it everyday
@@AysiaTiona thanks, One more question do hospitals hire ADN because that what I’m going for
@@ac3121 Yes, but most of them want you to get your BSN. So for example, my hospital will give you at least 5 years to get your BSN, if not they have to terminate you. But they pay for it after you’ve been working for them a certain amount of time, so a lot of nurses just do it
What city do you stay
You don’t even need to drive, you can take flight with those lashes girl🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You don’t look defeated as a nurse yet hahahah just wait
Lol ugh, don't remind me
@@AysiaTiona Stay positive and stay more positive and stay even MORE positive. Try to find a nursing mentor that’s older and connected for advice and ‘protection’. I can’t with the rude nurses, but I’m decades in and up against a mess and think of submitting Amazon apps or starting my own business…but a nurses paycheck is er…incentive…lol.
@@jacquelynn2051 Lmao you’re right. Honestly, I’m getting my experience here for a little while, then I’m going to ICU for like a year or two, then it’s back to school for CRNA. I can’t do the bedside… These past couple of months have taught me so much. Grateful for the experience, but med surg is not for me
Hey girl, so sorry about the footage that was caught in slow mo. I wonder if you were to speed up the video in some editing software if it would’ve turned out normal. Just a thought! 🤍
It’s ok girl, you know what… I was thinking of that, but I’m like ugh, I had already scrapped it. But yeah, that was a learning lesson, that’ll never happen again lol
