Congratulations!
thank you!
Hang in, you are amazing, your content and helpful tips for taking the boards are amazing. Thank you for all you do, I’m scared the transition from ICU RN to provider is something to grasp early, and will be challenging. In my practicum I could not chart in real time, and stayed for a couple of hours after the clinic closed, we were seeing around 28 patients a day, and I could not keep up even though the patient load was split with my preceptor.Take time for yourself, don’t burn out, it’s all about work -life balance, your down time is important to prepare for the next day.
Thank you for the kind words and helpful advice! I do appreciate it. :)
Hi Brittany! I am finally writing to THANK YOU! You inspire me to be a better person/mom/student/NP. I’ve been watching your channel since I started studying for my boards this past summer. I am about to start my first job as a FNP in a few weeks and watching your videos has been a life change for me. I feel like I’ve known you for years! Thank you for all you’ve done to help so many students and professionals in the nursing field! You rock girl! Ana
Hi Ana! Thank you so much for the kind words. It means so much to me! And congratulations on your new position, I am so glad I got to play a part in your journey. I wish you the best of luck in your new role!
I am 3 weeks in as a new NP, too. Yes, it definitely helps to have another experienced provider nearby! Quick food bars are a must with the short staffing issues. Remember you are doing your best!
Totally agree on the food bars lol. Thank you for the kind words!
Hey Brittany thank you for these wonderful review videos that you've done because I passed my certification exam today thanks to you and all of the great material you put out online for you too thank you
All this anxiety is normal. You are doing great in all your roles. Look into creating templates for your charting at work or create them for home. It will make charting easier. Keep it up!
Thanks, Xiomara! That's helpful to hear for sure! I am hoping to get proficient with Docutap and I definitely need to figure out how to create and utilize the templates better. I know that will help with the efficiency.
Thank you for sharing! I have been following your journey and your insight has been helpful… I have a year left … starting clinicals soon. 🤞🏼
Thank you. You are very good.
Thank you! Glad I've helped!
I completely relate to your one month update and I’m only two weeks into a new NP job at an internal medicine clinic. Prior to this job, I worked doing in home wellness exams for about a year and a half, but this is more of what I actually want to do long term. It’s been a huge adjustment and I feel like getting used to the EMR has been one of the biggest struggles so far. But the overthinking at home has been a thing and I’ve been the last one in the office charting pretty consistently too. But I’m hopeful it’ll get better with time. It sounds like you’re doing a great job though! And you’re seeing so many patients in urgent care!!
This is great!
Hey Brittani, thank you so much for your amazing content it is really helping me study for boards. Now, I must say I am very concerned about you taking on so many patients. I don’t want you to get burned out! So if you can renegotiate your contract for more admin time for charting please do so. You are obviously super smart and I know the mom guilt is real, I have the same issue with my two daughters. As you know family always comes before work so please do some self care. The burn out is Real!! Take care and thx again for your content.
Hey, Kim thanks for reaching out and for your concerns. I do appreciate them! Fortunately, I am paid for my charting, so that definitely helps! The patient load can be a lot. I honestly think it's a result of our local hospitals being so full and every where being so short staffed.
@@BrittaniNP
Glad to hear that. You are so right, I’m in California and it is short staffed all over from nurses to NP’s. We will always have jobs 😂😂! Take care and again thx for the content.
I start my first NP role in Primary Care the end of October! Excited, but nervous.
Yay! I definitely did and do (lol) experience both of those emotions as well. Just remember to give yourself grace while transitioning into your new role.
I'm doing my practicum now, and there's no time to chart between patients. I don't have a full load as a student though, but just wondering how do you remember all the assessment details of 30 patients at the end of the day, for charting?
So, I’ve been making myself essentially a virtual sticky note on each patient that I see. I include symptoms & onset and any pertinent positives from the ROS and exam that I performed. It’s usually a couple sentences, but it’s enough information for me to be able to fill in the rest.
@@BrittaniNP Thank you. I've been to several NP channels and I think yours is the best. Every video is packed with information. I view them multiple times and take screen shots to review certain slides later. Thanks for all you do.
Do you think where you go to school matters? Does a degree from a well known brick and mortar school make you more marketable?
Honestly, at the end of the day, I don't think that's what matters to employers. It may benefit you more to learn at a brick and mortar school, but ultimately employers just want to know you're licensed. I think one of the most important aspects in obtaining employment is networking. While you are still in school, network with as many people as possible and establish connections. If you do clinical at a site that you like, make sure you let them know before finishing your rotation there, that you are interested in working at that location. Best of luck!
Do you still fill out the assessment finding part? Or do you just do the plant and discharge instructions? I just started last month
