@Renounced Agreed. When I made the video I didn't want to rock the boat. But so many situations like these can make a person jaded and cynical, especially dealing with morons who do little more than react and without any type of critical thinking. I share your contempt for the ER . They are monkeys.

Possibly abit accurate, but a little extreme. And nurses dont chart meds, and also dont decide bed placement.  Would be great if we could one on one nurse.......... easy to judge!

@kkkkuujj Most of the conversation is accurate except some of the rude comments made by the icu nurse. (I did this for the comedy of the situation). I may have been thinking that, but I'm not rude or unprofessional enough to say it while doing my job. I have the utmost respect for ER nurses, recognizing that it is a completely different type of nursing from icu nursing, and we all have had days like this :)

All the time the ICU nurse spent arguing with the ER the pt would have already been upstairs you never see this type of bickering with doctors in Nursing even the male nurses turn bitchy

@rebe12354 Wow, sorry, I thought this video was for ICU nurse vs ER nurse, not floor nurse vs ER nurse. if you work at a hospital who's ICU RN "floor RN" 7 to 8 each, it's either not ICU or not safe. My guess is that you are neither ICU nor ER. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

[rebe12354]

Well to be honest, you kno that we can all say weve done this stupid shit. Because honestly think about it... we dont know shit!! Dont let the ego fuck with u... we dont.

[rebe12354]

@rikki32183 what hospital u work at??? floor nurses here always take care of 5-6 pts sometimes 7-8. Im just saying.... u said 2-3 pts.... thats way the fuck off ;)

much peace <3 hahaha for real

lmao @ incompetent monkeys......

[rikki32183]

I can find some humor in this. I would, however, like to challenge the floor nurses who care for max 2-3 patients in ICU (that are usually there for DAYS ON END) to juggle, lets say, 4 NEW acutely ill patients in ER, all arriving at the same time (because we all know discharges and hospital admissions ironically happen at random) each with a different resident per patient entering new orders all at once. That's REAL life. I've been on both sides, neither are perfect. Can't we all just get along?

[rikki32183]

@MsEDRN Thank you! And might I add that all of this is done while juggling multiple NEW patients from scratch! Sheesh.
