 Hi guys, so today I want to do a video of my advice from nurses to doctors, or my advice as a nurse to doctors, because I think it's important to understand all perspectives of the healthcare realm, and just like I like to talk to CNAs about how I can be a better nurse or talk to doctors about how I can be a better nurse, I also think that it's great for nurses to give advice to doctors, so if you're a doctor watching this video or a future doctor or whatever, I hope you enjoy this little tidbit of advice. My favorite thing that doctors do for nurses is when they are open to questions and open to educating nurses, and I think that sometimes doctors get frustrated doing this because they've done it for so long, and so maybe they get burnt out on it, but I love love love when I can go to a physician and I say, hey, why is it that when you're sodium is this, and then you redraw your labs because you're trying to correct your sodium and it's this, but it over corrected too much, why do we go backwards, why don't we just stay at where we're at, and then the physician, the renal doctor, whoever breaks it all down and writes it out and explains it, and I'm like, oh my gosh, that makes so much sense, now I know, now I'm a better nurse to my patients, I'm a better nurse to my co-workers, and I'm not going to be asking you that question again because now I know. So I love when doctors educate their nurses and are open to when they ask questions and will explain things. A lot of times you just go up to doctor and you say, hey, I've got this, this, and this going on, and they say, okay, we'll order this, and not all the time are they maybe explaining their thought process behind why they're doing that, so I think it's awesome when doctors do. My second piece of advice to doctors is to be respectful, and this should go without being said, but I think sometimes it gets lost and forgotten. A lot of times doctors have this higher power mentality, like I'm above everyone, and although your education is above everyone, we really rely on the whole healthcare team to really make a difference in our patients' care, and it takes a village, it takes a group of people, it takes a team to do everything that is needed in the healthcare world, and so even if your education is higher, still be respectful to those who would be considered beneath or below you and look at them more as team members, co-workers, rather than like, I'm in charge, I'm the boss, I'm above you. My last piece of advice to doctors is to be social. I don't know, this is kind of a weird thing, but I love that when I can get to know my doctors that I work with, physicians that I work with, and not necessarily like on a personal level, because depending on where you're at, maybe that's not accepted, I don't know, but I love when I can say like, hey how's your family doing, or hey how was your weekend, and we can kind of just generally talk briefly, even if it's not like, I'm not saying take 20 minutes with every single nurse or every single person and socialize, but it's nice when your unit or the the people that you work with can feel more like close friends and co-workers rather than just like, this is all business. I hope you guys enjoy that advice. I'm sure that lots of nurses have more advice down below, so I wanted to keep this short and sweet, and I wanted to open up to all other people. If you have any advice for doctors, leave it down below. Obviously keep it very respectful, and I hope this was helpful if it is or not, I don't know, whatever, but give this video a thumbs up regardless, and make sure you subscribe to my channel, and I'll see you guys next time. Bye!
