2023/01/27

Our bodies have a language of their own, and if we know how to listen, it can teach us many things. When we understand our body language, we can also understand others and provide them with what they need but are too hesitant to ask. But how can we understand what our body says? And how do we know when our body is talking to us? In this episode, we will learn how body language works, psychosomatic bodywork, and how it can help us heal ourselves and others.

Cup Of Nurses ·

2023/01/20

In this episode, we will talk about the renal system. Specifically, the anatomy of the kidney, how it filters blood and converts it to urine for excretion, and the RAAS system, the way your kidneys regulate your blood pressure. The renal system produces, stores, and eliminates urine. The kidneys make urine by filtering wastes and extra water from the blood. Urine travels from the kidneys through two thin tubes called ureters and fills the bladder. When the bladder is full of urine, a person urinates

2022/12/16

Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or NIPPV is ventilatory assistance without an invasive artificial airway like an endotracheal tube. The oxygen is delivered to a spontaneously breathing patient through a tight-fitting mask or in this case a helmet. Helmet based ventilation is a modern solution to an outdated method. The most popular choice in providing NIPPV is the cpap, a tightly fitted mask over the nose and mouth. The biggest problem with cpap is comfort and inconsistency associated

The issue of abortion has always been a sensitive topic. Many are still divided and have different opinions on whether a woman should get an abortion. Some consider abortion an unforgivable sin, while others believe it is a human right and every woman's right to decide to push through with the pregnancy or terminate it. But is abortion as sinful as they say it is? What happens to the mother if they have no right to an abortion? What happens to a child if they grow up in an unstable home simply

Welcome back to our Nurse Debriefing no. 24! For this week, we will be sharing our nursing stories. I, for one, had my longest shift for the week. I ended up working a 16-hour shift, which was an interesting experience. 😅 Nurses in this hospital come in at 7 am, 11 am, and so on, but the best part is you can pick over time, so I stayed until 11 am for this ICU shift. The advantage of this is I could see how they run the hospital during the day shift and how they get things done. I also saw how the

No matter how good you are at your job, making mistakes is inevitable. And just like anyone, nurses make mistakes too. While these mistakes are unintentional at times, the responsibility still lies on our shoulders and licenses. As nurses, we have to be mindful when it comes to doing our jobs. The lives of our patients are in our hands. And while we cannot avoid committing errors, we must minimize them to the lowest level possible or none at all. How can we do this?

Learning how to de-escalate a situation is vital to any situation. It is common for emotions to run high, and sometimes, a simple conversation can lead to a resolution. As nurses, we must know how to handle difficult situations, especially if this happens in our unit. How can you help calm down an angry family member or deescalate a bad situation? No one ever calms down when you just yell "calm down". For experts like Phil, de-escalating a situation has steps. Acknowledge the person's emotion and
