my parents are stranded in puerto rico until thursday with this storm. i don’t know whether to say “i’m sorry” or “congratulations” 🤣

not me choosing a career that requires me to show up for work during a record-setting snowstorm and sleep in a cot at work overnight 🤡

cue me trying to calculate what time i have to leave for work sunday morning to get there on time 😭

admitted my first two flu A patients for the year.

and so it begins 😖

not my patient and the virtual interpreter arguing in polish with each other jerry springer style 🤣

the ED giving 40mg lasix IV to a patient with a K 2.3 is just the jump scare i needed to wake me up this morning, happy halloween 🎃

feeling validated that my hearing test came back borderline because i’m always asking ppl to repeat themselves and people think i’m not paying attention

the surgical dept at my hospital is hot garbage. they’ll refuse to do a procedure for source control because the patient “isn’t stable enough” and “needs medical optimization”

then you get the patient stable-ish with abx (no source control), and they say “patient is stable, no intervention needed”

wayward is WILD, i binged the whole thing in one day

i feel like i’ve made it- the ED senior resident rotating with us called me a badass 🤣💪🏾

it has been 5 years since the start of the pandemic and “here comes the sun” still puts me into an immediate panic within the first 3 seconds of the instrumentals

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.
Release from HHS: HHS will wind down its development of the mRNA vaccine development activities under the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).

a patient’s seemingly impaired son yelled at me on the phone for using the phrase “mental status” because he didn’t know what it meant. it caught me so off guard, i didn’t even know how to go about explaining that in a more layman’s fashion…i thought i already was doing that but apparently not 🫣

how is the average american affording to shop for clothes in this economy??? this cheap ass fabric for these astronomical prices?? i’m getting angrier by the minute walking though the mall
July 27, 2025 at 7:43 PM
me (a new NP) + an even newer NP on nightshift, alone, in our office trying to workup/diagnose a new admission with “no medical history” who’s on the brink of death
July 23, 2025 at 7:59 PM
i’m going to try to start posting more. i’ve been struggling with this job- not the role of being an NP. it’s the lack of organization and consistency at this monstrous hospital, i would have expected so much better
July 20, 2025 at 2:22 PM
the “i don’t follow politics” thing isn’t cute. people’s lives are getting destroyed, all sense of security getting ripped out from under their feet as a direct result of government policies and legislation. turning a blind eye to that is irresponsible and inhumane. wake UP
July 6, 2025 at 5:38 PM
feeling so unpatriotic that i want to remove my coincidentally red nail polish today

oh shit, hospitals are about to get wrecked from this bill 😭 rural hospitals shutting down from lack of funding, academic centers bursting at the seams absorbing the volume
