This is important everyone not only in nursing school but in a medical profession. Its important to be able to apply what you learn rather then just memorize the material. Even if you fail, it's better to fail in school then once you're in the real world and people's lives are at stack. Inspirational and motivational! Thanks!

I just got accepted into nursing school today and I'm so excited! This video was really helpful x

My mom is a retired nurse. A couple of years back, I was considering for quite some time to do a mid-career switch into nursing but in the end realised that it's not for me. The reasons are because


1) I can deal with or handle corpses but i find it very hard to deal with things like seeing a patient who is suffering and in pain - with all the tubes in them, taking their blood samples or clearing bodily fluids from them, cleaning their wounds while they cringe in pain, dealing with emergencies etc etc and yet have to be calm.
2) dealing with the emotional part of caring for patients especially when death occurs


We need lots of healthcare professionals but unfortunately not many are able to take on the job which can be both mentally and emotionally exhausting. I want to take this opportunity to salute and thank all the healthcare professionals around the world! You may not be aware of this but you're like little angels sent by God to help and take care of his sick people. Keep up the good work gal !

I'm in my first semester of my schools nursing program. It was so difficult to get in, and now that I'm in, I am so overwhelmed with everything so far. It's only the first week and I'm It's just so much so fast and I feel like everything is in a different language

I’m a nursing major & I just wanna say thank you for the relief about rankings & schools :•)

I just graduated from an accelerated Bachelor's Nursing program in 16 months and let me tell you this: make friends to gain resources. I shared my notes with half the class and in return, I gained awesome notes from people who knew some upperclassmen. Your classmates are your critical resources for lectures and clinical. When I did my rotations, I would always ask my peers for help first because they might know something I don't or vice versa.

the biggest thing I have realized is the ability to multitask and stay calm when everything is going haywire. I also saw that this applied to people who were in my nursing degree program. All the people that were constantly hyper stressed all the time over everything never made it. I always got made fun of for seeming like I did not care that much. Truth was, I care a ton and that is why I chose nursing. You just really have to be able to manage yourself and your stress levels, accepting that some things are not within your control to worry about or spend energy on. The people that are high stress and frazzled are the ones I, and most other nurses dread working with on the unit. This is why most nursing degree programs spend a good chunk of time ie a relational theory/practice course on managing yourself and taking care of yourself so you can take care of others!

I’m 21 with two children under 2 and I’m in the process of starting to apply for nursing school. Can you do a video on the steps you took in order to get to where you are now? It would be very helpful. I’ve been looking up to you for encouragements as well as motivation so it would mean a lot to me. Thank you for all you do

[bookbook]

Video idea: Maybe the different types of nurses or nurses most people aren’t aware of.

Also thank you for your content

[itzanikkihere]

I'm not going into the medical field but I'm obsessed with watching your videos:) <33

[rootlessnurse]

Where were you 5 years ago? This advice would’ve saved me A LOT of time! 💯

I love these videos! Thanks, Miki!❤️

[ShinbiBelldandy]

I'm not a nurse but there are definitely applicable to any healthcare career. It's definitely worth it all. I remember going to night classes & coming home to do my homework while nursing my infant son. In one module, I did ALL the homework in one weekend just so it would free up time to study & do projects. My teacher almost fainted when I dropped the stack on her desk that Monday! XD

[NurseErica]

thanks for being honest with your struggles in nursing school. So many of my students lose confidence when they fail a validation or exam. It's helpful when people are honest and show that even if you fail, you can still be successful as long as you work hard.

I love this video! I'm trying to get into nursing school and I appreciate the importance of nursing school. Your videos encourage and motivate me to never give up Thank You ILY <3 <3

[emilyjames]

These are so true!! I just graduated from my LVN program and I could absolutely relate to every single one of these. I will hopefully be going back to school to get my RN soon as well!

[jameslkk]

🙀think the nursing course itself is so tough. The number of hours spend is a lot, thank you for the information

I just got accepted from nursing school, it’s DDPN. And I feel so scare but excited, stronger too. I know it’s expensive, but I believe I’m young, I can make money one day to pay back. Money isn’t everything, and it can’t stop my dream. I have taken every step to make my dream comes true when I was 12 years old. I know it’s hard, it’s about responsibilities, saving people lives, ...but I won’t give up. I still have like many years to study, so like you said, I won’t fear of fail, I like to fail, I like to make mistakes, but not repeat one mistake twice. Thanks for your sharing. 🥰

I’m starting nursing school in August! 🙌🏼 Thank you for this video. I found it super helpful Miki 😭❤️
