My job is pushing me to falsely document.

So my job has to meet a certain number of patient groups daily but since are staffed to the bare bone they obviously don't get done. I am being told to chart them even if we don't do them. I have asked if there is a way to chart why it wasn't done but apparently that isn't an option. Instead I am told to just chart the groups as if they are done because we are not meeting the quota. These groups have literally not been done is years...no one has time to do them. I don't really trust our risk management because there has been backfire from reporting something like this before. I feel like this is some sort of insurance fraud and can potentially put my license at risk. It is also putting my job at risk for not complying. I don't know what I should do. submitted by /u/Brief_Scientist_7756 [link] [comments]

Need encouragement for starting a new job postpartum

I moved to a new city around the same time my leave ended, so I never went back to work at my previous job. Then I took a few extra months to settle in and stay home with my baby. I just accepted a job on a medsurg unit in a level 1 trauma hospital, and I’m terrified. It’ll have been 8 months since I left my last job to have my baby. The long hours, the inconsistent sleep, mom-brain, a long commute, pumping, new place and coworkers, plus the extended time off. I feel like I need to study before I go back, but I honestly don’t know if I have the time. Moms who’ve gone through something similar, please give me any advice you have! The unit I’ll be working on is known as having a good culture and teamwork. I’m scared I’ve forgotten things, that I’ll be too exhausted to do a good job, and my new coworkers will question how I got hired in the first place. Any helpful advice is appreciated. submitted by /u/brie38 [link] [comments]

The future of edtech

Why does it feel like, similar to video game companies ,the future of edtech is not in huge companies but small boutique firms with extremely specialized capabilities? I feel like we are going to see a balkanization of edtech firms which will coalesce into a sort of union of firms. Eventually we will have companies again. I think the best thing that edtech firms can do is teach teachers how to make products using ai for their classrooms. Eventually products will lead the pack then go from there. submitted by /u/Visual-Reserve-2800 [link] [comments]

is it trauma, normal nursing, or a secret third thing

i guess i could flair this as seeking advice but this is mainly me babbling nonsense but this is mainly me trying to figure out if this or normal or not amongst other nurses because my husband is not a nurse and thinks i’m a little tapped. i feel like i need to put a tw for death but that’s so silly because of our jobs but idk i feel like i need to put a tw so context i’m a former trauma er rn now in ir at a trauma hospital so i’ve seen a thing or two. recently we just watch live music on youtube and a video from the band Hers came on and we watched a little before i said “aw this makes me too sad. i just keep thinking of them in that accident” to which he said “like you think of the accident?” and i said “no like i can picture what they looked like after” and he was kind of horrified by that and asked me follow up questions and i was basically like yeah if i know how someone died sometimes i can picture how they would come to me and it’s can get graphic depending on the nature. tonigh

Convocation Blues

My (HUGE) district is hosting a convocation. Basically a massive pep rally. My school got invited and only a select few teachers can go due to capacity limitations. Unfortunately I’m going. Apparently about 5,000 people will be at this event. I have been anxious about this all week. I don’t even go to concerts or malls. These feelings are partially from not being able to tolerate the noise of large crowds but also thinking about how unsafe l feel, my inability to escape if needed, etc. These large ass crowds make me think “perfect opportunity for a mass sh**ting”. How can I ever enjoy myself with these thoughts? It’s pretty much frowned upon to request off on professional development days, which this is, so that’s not an option. I wish I could be excited but I’m just so in my head about the moment I’ll be sitting amongst the crowd and can’t leave until my area is called. I fear I have to just get it over with. If it gets too bad, my plan is to hide in the bathroom 😭 submitted by /u/Was

Resigned after a month

I work as a teacher since 2025. I teach languages. Joined this school in July, had my gut feeling that this is weird right from the start. Too many roles for one teacher from random duties to bus duties and so on. The principal on the other hand walked around pretending to be a swagger, while in reality intimidated the teachers. I couldn't take this BS anymore and resigned yesterday with 15 days salary in lieu of the notice period and she behaved terribly. It was worse. I kept questioning myself as to why I joined this shithole in the first place. She denied taking the resignation letter and made me go for the notice period. Earlier that day I thought to myself that maybe this isn't too bad, I should reconsider but after I saw her behavior it was clear that I gotta leave it soon. She isn't running a school but rather a place to dictate. The moment I entered, even before telling her about the resignation, I introduced myself and asked her if I can sit and she goes no. I was so weirded o

Hello! I am looking for some advice/insight for someone like me who is looking to take a non-traditional pathway to becoming an RN. I graduated from undergrad in December of 2025 with my B.S in Kinesiology with hopes of applying to PT school, and through my time away from school I have decided to pivot towards nursing as I believe it would suit me better in the long run. I have a deep passion for healthcare and helping others, but not necessarily for Physical Therapy which led to me making the decision to pivot. With that being said, I am struggling to navigate the best possible route for me to take as of right now. I have been considering an ABSN program which starts in the summer, and currently have 3 prerequisites I would need to complete before entering the program (Human Development, Nutrition, and Microbiology).

I sub at a midsized district and I asked how many subs are on the sub list when I was picking up my badge today.

The school has 3 high schools, one continuation school, 3 middle schools and a some elementary schools. Four hundred substitute teachers on the sub list. The lady said "we just hired more." My first thought is: There are a lot of people with university degrees making less than 35k a year here. My second thought is: Subbing jobs already go in nanoseconds, what was the point of hiring even more? Oddly enough I subbed at a neighboring district in 2019. I asked that lady the same question and she said "about a hundred." Both district are the same size. It's weird how quadruple the people are now subbing.

Any ICU nurses have bad staffing on their unit? We have been so short staffed, we get tripled often. I’m so anxious coming to work and so stressed there. I’m truly miserable. I want to leave but feel bad making them even more short, but also they aren’t doing anything to fix the issue. DON blames the “sick calls”. But that’s not an excuse.

I am a 7th grade English teacher, WHAT DO I NEED TRIANGLE-SHAPED WHITE BOARD DESKS FOR!? I'm kind of scared to ask admin if I can have different desks/if different desks are available because my principal kept talking about the desks. She is clearly very excited about them, so I'm worried that asking will reflect badly on me somehow.

Nurses who went from working 3x12 hr shifts to 4x10hr shifts- do you regret it?

I’ve been working as an inpatient RN for 25 years and I’m considering switching to an outpatient role working four 10-hour shifts a week. I’ve always worked three 12s, and that schedule has worked well for me. Now that my kids are a little older, four days a week feels more doable. The new position would also be less physically and emotionally demanding than my current inpatient role, and I’d be getting home around 2 hours earlier on workdays. There is also the possibility of one remote day a week depending on work load. I would also have a set schedule and there is no weekend or holiday requirement. My biggest hesitation is giving up that extra day off every week. For those of you who went from 3x12s to 4x10s, did getting home earlier and/or having a less demanding job make up for having to go to work an extra day? Did you adjust to it, or do you wish you’d stayed with 3x12s? I’d especially love to hear from anyone who made the switch after working 12s for many years. submitted by /u/

Being bullied

I just want to come here to vent. I’m being bullied at PD by these two people who call themselves educators. Every time I walk by they say “stop interrupting” and start laughing and talking about me. All because they were talking in my ear and I asked them to stop. I’m in a new district but not new to teaching and idk my old district everyone was super nice and respectful. Thankfully I will only have to deal with these people on pd days. Just makes me sad. submitted by /u/SSGcap [link] [comments]

Patient unexpectedly died during shift. New Grad RN very worried

Hi everyone. I’m a brand-new RN and I’m dealing with my first serious critical incident. A patient in my workplace died unexpectedly during/around my shift, and I’m having a really hard time processing it. We are a non medical offsite inpatient detox withdrawal management The patient had returned from the hospital shortly before my shift ended close to shift change. I spoke with him and he was able to communicate with me. I believed he was stable at the time. I told the incoming nurse about him being stable after coming back from the hospital 20 minutes later after I left. They found him dead in the washroom. He takes no medications, No meds were given to him at all. So far we believe it’s an overdose. Since he uses opioids and has a hx of overdose They also found a pipe in his room. so far the police are involved. His parents are very unhappy. Management hasn’t called me yet this happened last night I am struggling with a lot of guilt and fear right now. I am very scared my license wi

Is it a good idea for CS student to specialize in edtech?

I'm not actually a CS student. I switch from CS to EE because of the AI hype a couple of years ago. Jensen Huang scared me away from that major. The layoffs and reddit posts talking about having to do 5000 apps didn't help either. I enjoy my engineering classes and learning more about technology but I find myself gravitating towards web development projects rather than microcontroller projects. And most of my projects revolve around educational tools. I'm a part time student and full time pharmacy technician and most of my projects revolve around teaching different aspects of my job. So I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to specialize in this field? Is it safe from AI? Does it pay well? Edit: thanks for the responses. It seems there isn't really much to specialize in as far as the tech is concerned. It's a field that's better suited to teachers who learned a little bit of code or a software engineer + teacher partnership. Something I can do as a hobby and for my portfolio but mos

Audit panic about COPPA regulation

Since the COPPA updates came out, I've been running some tests on AI privacy policies for kids' apps, and it feels like a ton of companies are not complaint. Parental consent logs, proving deletion for regulators, it all seems like an absolute nightmare to build internally. For those of you working or building in AI in education / kids' entertainment, how are you handling this? Did you build retention timers and deletion logs in house or is there a API or something out there that actually handles this? submitted by /u/Impressive-Club9370 [link] [comments]
