Lesson learned: Always bring extra scrubs and shoes. 😭💀 You can't really tell in the video, but my left leg is soaked because I was in the bathroom scrubbing blood off my uniform with hydrogen peroxide, soap, and water. 🤣 Had to sit in front of a fan just to dry it. At least I got most of the blood out... but the ✨ick✨ feeling is still there. 😭 #nurselife #nursetok #nightshift #nursing #medicalfield

6/2 Edited to

As someone who's worked several night shifts in the nursing profession, I totally relate to the struggle of dealing with unexpected blood splatter on uniforms. It’s not just about the visual mess but also the uncomfortable feeling that comes with it. Hydrogen peroxide is my go-to for removing blood stains—it's gentle yet effective, especially when combined with soap and water. However, even after washing, the fabric might still feel a bit 'icky' because of residual blood or moisture. One pro tip I've picked up is to always carry an extra set of scrubs and shoes—this saved me multiple times when I had to quickly switch after a spill. Sitting in front of a fan or using a handheld dryer helps dry the wet clothes faster, making downtime more comfortable during a shift. Also, keep some antiseptic wipes handy for quick clean-ups on the go. Beyond the cleanup, wearing moisture-wicking undershirts can reduce that clammy feeling if your scrubs get soaked. From experience, prepping for the unexpected really eases the stress during hectic shifts. Embracing these practices, along with a positive mindset, can make the demanding nursing life a bit more manageable and less unpleasant.

Biggest Lesson I Have Learned So Far (I think)

I would say this far in life the biggest lesson I have learned is that it is okay to be alone or by yourself. When I was 16 I always wanted to be with my friends or out doing something. I hardly did anything alone. And while that isn’t a bad thing, being my yourself has taught me so much. Things su

One thing I’ve noticed a lot of women realize too late is how much their time, energy, and self-worth are worth. We spend so much trying to please others, stay in relationships that don’t lift us up, or chase validation that we forget to prioritize ourselves. I wish I had known earlier that saying

Let this be a lesson to always carry dramamine, even if you dont think you need it. My room was on the 12th floor and every time I got off the elevator I felt like I was swimming, and dizzy. My vertigo would kick in like crazy. Im sure if I would have had dramamine with me it would have helped.
