    EP 116: What to Expect After Your NCLEX

    EP 116: What to Expect After Your NCLEX

    In this episode, we are going to discuss the things you have to do once you’ve passed your NCLEX.
    In nursing, the work seems to never stop. So, you’ve passed your NCLEX and you are crossing over from student to practitioner. Your next step should be applying to jobs, but on a unit, you want to work on.
    As travel nurses, we have a lot of tips and recommendations for you based on what we learned throughout our careers. These are also the things we wish we knew back then so we never made the mistakes that we did.
    Enjoy the episode and good luck with your new journey!

    EP 115: End of Shift Duties & Notes

    EP 115: End of Shift Duties & Notes

    Oncoming nurse what do you say?
    In order to wrap up your shift successfully, you need to do a final sweep of your room, orders, patient status, and a good nurse note. In this episode, we cover all end-of-shift duties.
    When we first started nursing, there always was anxiety properly wrapping up a shift. Questions always ran through the mind of what else:
    -What is my patient's status?
    -Did I empty all my drains (foley, chest tube, Jp’s, canisters)
    -What are all the orders for the patient, are there new ones?
    -Should I give that 7:30 med?
    -Did I write a note for my patient?
    A usual report is around 5-15 minutes per patient depending on specialty. One of the most frequent errors during a shift report is forgetting critical information. You should use different colors on your report sheet to highlight the important information.

I can’t stop listening

I’ve just discovered this podcast being a new grad nurse and I’m loving it ! Very entertaining and informative for me especially as a new grad, and real talk about many subjects related to nursing without any sugar coating which I like. I’ve learned so much and listen to Peter and Matt on most of my morning runs. I really like how they talk a lot about good health in general and lifestyle , makes it more relatable. Thanks guys keep it up ! Note: Peter talks too fast sometimes!😂

I love this podcast

It is refreshing to hear nurses critically thinking during these times! I truly appreciate that you guys are asking questions, so many nurses around me are not. Keep up the great work!

Awesome nursing podcast by male nurses in a female dominated field. Great opinions, open discussions, experience, and thought provoking. I love the discussions on current situations as well as nursing experience in various situations.
