    I appreciate his videos. I am not a nurse but I am a Mother of 3 who works outside of the home. I equate patient care like I care for my children and loved ones. It is a truly hard but rewarding thing to be a caretaker for someone else. There truly is a burnout. nurses are so needed and I truly hope that they win their fight and can earn the wages they deserve.

    I can relate to a mental breakdown
    I was blamed for everything went wrong to a patient although I reported to a Dr of what was wrong, she came attended to what's was reported
    The only sin I did was to knock off and go home
    Everything that went wrong that day they blamed me

    Being a nurse is like being in the mob, you can leave whenever you want but you’re never truly out of it

    I wish this guy and all health workers the best. Its usually a thankless job and a never ending line of patient faces. You guys are true heroes of the community along with ambulance and fire fighter personnel. Thankyou for everything you do, thankyou for going that extra mile when you feel exhausted but know the effort helps the people you help, recover faster. Thankyou for being kind, caring. You are truly awesome.

    I cannot lie, I pivoted to information technology back in this past year, and while I have not started working officially in the profession, I do not miss working in Healthcare for eight years. Nurse John stated it very well. I miss taking care of people, but I don’t miss not being taken care of by employers and the situation that you go back to every day just for the sake of having income. I am quickly seeing that burnout is happening everywhere, regardless of the industry. Overall, I am happy for people finding success in other areas and other industries. People do not think that creatives can make a living off of making videos or content online but I think we have a ton of evidence that way of thinking is antiquated. 😅 Blessings Nurse John ❤

    So since he’s a good person and won’t throw shade, I will! He also doesn’t record at work or disclose anyone’s personal information! Unlike some of these creators that are no longer employed, John still has a job ijs lol Nurse John is the shit my mom was a nurse for like 30 years and his videos show why I didn’t follow in her footsteps 😂😂😂

Sir Keir Starmer is fighting to stay on as prime minister as the pressure mounts | BBC News

Published

on



Three members of his government, including Home Office minister Jess Phillips, have resigned, whilst scores of Labour MPs are calling for him to quit following a disastrous set of elections for the party last week.

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is among a number of cabinet ministers urging the prime minister to set out a departure timetable.

Sir Keir said he does not intend to quit and threw down the gauntlet to potential rivals to formally challenge him as Labour leader.

No MP has yet launched a formal bid to challenge him, which requires the backing of 81 colleagues or 20% of Labour MPs, according to party rules.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
