Is anyone else working in a newer school where the front walls of the classrooms are basically all glass? I’ve worked at two newer schools built within the last 8 years, and both have had glass walls. There is ZERO privacy. I’m constantly making awkward eye contact with people walking by while sitting at my desk. It’s also so distracting for the students! Kids will walk past and wave to their friends in my class, and of course everyone inside notices everything happening in the hallway. Who decided this was a good idea? submitted by /u/BananasSometimes [link] [comments]
I feel like they lack creativity. Even the posters that used templates from Canvas, Word, etc had something original to them. They also just don't feel unique to the school anymore. There's just this mass produced quality that feels empty. It feels like the schools don't really care about what event, fundraiser they are for. When they are not overly stimulating with the design. Just something I've noticed as school starts again. submitted by /u/Current_Juice756 [link] [comments]
What’s it like to work in a burn unit? The two major level 1 traumas in my area both have them but I never have any exposure to them. Are they ICUs? Do people really get their skin scrubbed or is that an old thing? Lots of pain? I imagine it’s difficult to work there. submitted by /u/Living-Pace-5263 [link] [comments]

Hi. I work in an ER. One shift I came back to the ER from delivering a patient to the unit and noticed a new patient already slotted in the room. I grabbed an ice pack after seeing what she was there for and as I approached the room she was flippppppping out screaming that no one is helping her. I tried to calm her down but she kept going off, really yelling at me. I didn’t say anything mean back to her but know I probably sounded annoyed when answering at this point because she wouldn’t stop. Cut to now I see she wrote a google review using my name saying how I’m such a terrible nurse don’t deserve to practice, and she’s going to write to someone higher up about me. I’m just really freaking out about this submitted by /u/Extension-Salt237 [link] [comments]
Our math program sucks because the kids do not become proficient in basic operations. They waste so much time "investigating" that they never get the basics down. Or really much of anything mathematical. Our ELA program sucks because it is bloated and unfocused. If you did everything in the manual, you'd need twice the instructional time they say you do. Plus, at the end, no one knows what, if anything, was learned. But I'm cool with both of them. On my planning period, I have about 5 minutes of work running the worksheets and getting the slide show ready. When I have a sub, I just write "see manual" for both subjects, which, at my grade level, comprise the vast majority of the day. I had to get over worrying what a sub would do with such an absolute blivit. But I did. I decided that if that's tough for the sub, that's a decision the district made for them, not me. If my students aren't learning as much as they could, same thing. There's a pattern in the profession of admin and distric
The charge nurse for my unit on night shift is a new grad who’s been on the unit 9 months. Nobody stays due to low staffing: 6:1, no PCT/CNA, supply problems, and ridiculous and redundant charting expectations. I spend HOURS being a CNA, answering call lights for my patients AND other nurse’s patients, particularly bed alarms. VS every 4 hours on all patients. New admit? Good luck to my other 5 patients, they’re on their own for at least 2 hours, maybe more depending on the admit. No time for breaks or lunches most nights. Lucky to squeeze-in a run to the bathroom. On my days off, I just want to stay in bed. I love my bed. It’s peaceful there. Is it like this everywhere inpatient? Excluding the well-known and regarded 4:1 in California. I’m in the rural Midwest, with very few healthcare options, but also the regional hub for all the tiny rural access hospitals that send us their patients. submitted by /u/Conscious_Wind_5132 [link] [comments]
I just shadowed a nurse today and it was such an amazing experience. I got to interact with the sweetest patients man😭. I have no words to describe what i feel right now lol. Seeing people on one of their worst days of their lives and seeing them making jokes and laughing about the small stuff…yeaa people are amazing. And also i felt like i made a difference or did sth important lol, i did not do anything i just stood there and watched the nurse take care of the patients but it made me feel so fulfilled.

I have had this class for 10 days but I have been teaching for 22 years. On 3 different occasions I have had parent complaints about their kids going home saying I'm yelling at them. I have not yelled at them. I talk loudly, especially when it's the 3rd or 4th time I've given the direction. I'm just frustrated because instead of coming to me they've gone to my admin.

So, today was the first day of school. And to celebrate this day, 3 high school seniors (and members of the football team) decided to duct tape 2 freshmen to the flag post. They also wrote the word “Freshman” on their foreheads. So I suspended them for 3 days, referred them to the SRO, and kicked them off the football team. I have a zero tolerance policy with bullying. Unfortunately, 3 days is the max I can give on a first offense. Maybe the SRO can do some more with them if the parents of the victims want to press charges. Yes, when I spoke to the parents of the victims I mentioned that they can press charges. Interestingly, two of the seniors weren’t upset that they bullied and ruined the first day of school for two freshmen. They were upset that they were kicked off the football team. The father of one treated to sue the district because now his son will never get a football scholarship. I asked and the kid is second string. Not likely that a second stinger will get a full ride anyw

First year teacher here. How would you respond to an email from a parent saying their child didn’t receive the summer reading book? School starts in a week here. What is my responsibility here? I’m going to be in the classroom tomorrow, should I offer the parent to stop by and pick up another copy of the book? I do want this student to have this book at least to bring into the classroom with everyone else. I’ve heard that this student has some challenges and I want to make it clear to them that school is for them, just like it is for everyone else. Btw I do know that the student did receive a copy of the book last year. submitted by /u/awalruswalksintoabar [link] [comments]
As a floor nurse, I was surprised by this newly published review and meta-analysis in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society. I’ve found so many confused, elderly patients wiggling out of bed who were 100% unable to walk safely without a heavy assist of 1-2. Without the bed alarm AND the ability to respond quickly, I’m certain they’d have fallen. Ofc, that’s just anecdotal evidence, but I’ve always found safe staffing ratios to be the most important factor in fall prevention.

I know that "normal" is a loaded term, so let me explain. One of the trends I've noticed in the last five years or so is more students who don't seem to understand the basic idea of school. So, my context is 7th grade, which means that I fully expect my students to get sidetracked, forget themselves and talk over me, and so on. It seems to me that the last five years have seen an increase in the number of students who take it one step further and respond with hostility and resentment when they are corrected, no matter how straightforward and gentle the correction is, which is a much bigger problem. I can deal with kids who understand what is required of them in school but struggle with impulse control all day - it's a lot harder to deal with kids who don't get it, who are surprised and angry when asked to do basic things like listen to instructions without talking. This year, so far, is totally different. I still get kids who slip up, but the response is much more appropriate: acknowle
All admins please consider what Im about to say… If you dog your teachers in order to please a parent and let a rotten student have their way, you will pay more for it in the long term! You’re letting one or two bad apples spoil the entire barrel. You know why? Because teachers will eventually get so fed up and quit. And the other 20+ students who actually love their teachers and are attached, will suffer the trauma. They will leave your school and the enrollment rate you so desperately yearn for, will drop all because you wanted to keep one spoiled one… When a teacher is telling you that a student needs to be disciplined, YOU need to address that rotten apple precisely or your whole barrel will go to waste. submitted by /u/Slight-Watercress151 [link] [comments]
I'm currently reading a book with my 6th graders that occasionally uses the r word. I haven't run into saying it aloud until today. Should I skip over the word or read it? Should I say something to the class before reading about how some words that are used in books aren't acceptable in real life? What do y'all think? Edit: Super interesting to read everyone's perspective—there's clearly no consensus on how it should be handled. I ended up having a nice discussion with the kids about how the word shows how the main character is treated by others, and that even though it's written in the book, we don't use the word in real life. I skipped over it when I got to it, which caused 0 issues. submitted by /u/StrawberryFar7175 [link] [comments]
For context, I work on a PCU with 16 beds. Ratio is normally 1:3 (if patients meet certain criteria) or 1:4 (if typical progressive care assignment). We normally have one or two 1:3 assignments and the rest are 1:4. Recently, our hospital decided that med surg nurses can no longer float to our unit due to higher acuity and lack of training for those nurses. They did this while only having a very small number of progressive trained float nurses. And can’t pull from ICU’s due to lack of staffing in those areas as well. I had a bad night, I’m pregnant, was super nauseous half the night and couldn’t sleep. I decided to use a sick day. I reached out to the nightshift charge nurse to let her know I wouldn’t be coming in and needed to use sick time. Her response was “can you reconsider? There were only three of you scheduled for dayshift, one of the other nurses called out sick as well, so we would only have one nurse on” (the remaining nurse is not trained yet to be a charge nurse, and I am,

Do you get annoyed when your resource nurse is knocking out some of your tasks in the background to keep your workload more manageable? I notice the older heads appreciate the extra hand, but the newer nurses get a little territorial with their assignments. One of the newer nurses sat me down the other day and said I was “helping out too much” and that people were complaining.

Hi, I wanted to ask how difficult majoring in nursing really is. I’m considering going back to school for nursing because I’ve been struggling to find a job in my current field. The biggest concern is the cost. I already have a bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, so I believe the financial aid options would be limited to loans, meaning I’d be taking on a significant amount of debt. I want to make sure I’m making a smart decision before committing to it. For anyone who has gone through an accelerated nursing program, how difficult would you say it actually is? The school that I am thinking about requires at least an 80% to pass certain classes, so I’d really like to get an idea of how challenging the coursework is and how manageable it is for someone coming from a different field. submitted by /u/MediocrePass4780 [link] [comments]
Hi everyone, I just wanted to ask for your opinions about a situation my brother is currently facing. My brother is a nurse working in a public hospital. They have a patient who needs to be airlifted to a better-equipped hospital because it's a medical emergency. The hospital is in a very isolated area, so the fastest way to transfer the patient is by a small airplane. Here's the problem: • None of the nurses assigned to the transfer (including my brother) have been trained for this specific job. • The aircraft is very small and doesn't have the proper equipment you'd normally expect for critical care during transport. • If the patient's condition suddenly worsens mid-flight and CPR is needed, they'd have to remove their seatbelts and perform CPR while the plane is in the air, which seems unsafe for both the patient and the medical staff. My brother refused because he genuinely believes they're not properly trained for this situation. However, the hospital told them they are required t

But no one else on the unit seems to go to those lengths. Any and all advice or tips on how you desensitized yourself or learned to deal with it are appreciated.

I recently took care of a sweet little boy on our peds hospice service who passed a few days after I saw him. I was a float nurse so I only saw them once, and I have since quit working for that hospice agency. The family lives less than a mile down the street from me and I pass their house daily. I wanted to drop off flowers and a card for the family. The mom and I bonded over all of our kids being the same ages and genders. Our oldest kids will be in school together next year, so I will see them again regardless. Is this crossing the line? Further, do you think the family will appreciate a gesture? I don't want to trigger them, as I still have my little one who is the same age as theirs who passed away. Thanks, nursing community. submitted by /u/Dear_Excitement_5109 [link] [comments]
Homehealth peds with a client who has 3 siblings and they all have nurses. Somehow I feel like I’ve ended up the entertainer/babysitter to all these children. I’m also feeling judgement from the other nurses because my client sleeps in late (even when I attempt to wake him) hates taking his pills, can be a bit difficult. He has good days and bad days. His Friday nurse feels the need to go in our securechat and gloat to our clinical manager about every little thing. “I made sure he drank today!!!” “He was up early for me today!” Our chat is meant to relay changes/med updates/appointments. He has great days for me but I don’t feel a need to comment constantly in the chat about it for brownie points.

Tomorrow is the first day of school. It’s my second year, 33F. I’ve been in the district for four years, but this is only my second year in my room. Anyway, I’m having some anxiety. Kids and parents aren’t the only ones with fear about the big day. I know once I get in a routine, I’ll be okay. This year I’m not in grad classes so I’ll be able to dig deep into the curriculum, but I also won’t be able to use that as an excuse if I mess up. Not that I did. I don’t know. I’m scared. I have moments when I realize the immense responsibility and it’s suddenly met with honor and happiness I am there for my community. I care about public service, but I’m just having feelings tonight.

I know everyone says this is a terrible way to present, but hear me out. The reason is the Split Attention Effect. Your brain can only pay attention to one thing at a time. If you project a slide with more than a few words of text, then immediately start talking using different words, the student can EITHER read the slide OR listen to what you are saying, but they can't do both. Usually what ends up happening is they try to switch their attention back and forth between reading and listening, but that just causes them to miss some of each. I noticed this happening to me repeatedly during inservice presentations by admin. It drove me crazy. There are two ways to avoid the split attention effect. The first way is to pause after displaying text and give the audience time to read it silently. This works well if they actually read it, but realistically many students will just zone out if you do this. The second way is to read the text aloud, word-for-word, as soon as you reveal it.

I’ve taught mostly in Texas (dual language) and I’m over it; the constant micromanaging, feeling like an axe is about to come crashing down (even when you’re doing your job). I want to stay in the field and I’m just considering where to go. I’ve heard and read great things about various states and Washington state stands out as a teacher friendly and affordable. Obviously affordable depends on where you go to, but Texas isn’t as cheap as people think, especially considering the max you can earn. I’m that millennial with debt and I live with family because I can’t afford rent on a 1/1, much less with a child. So, what’s the 411 from my fellow teachers in blue states?

In icu with dad on a ventilator. All I can think is how smart the nurses here are. Not just about the meds, but about keeping us sane. Communicating with him when he can’t talk, managing a bazillion cords and machines, stalling lunch breaks to make sure he’s comfortable. I appreciate the quick jokes and check ins for the caregivers, I’m not a patient but your checking on me too. Can’t imagine working in this type of environment every day.

The issue of students using ChatGPT/AI to do their homework has become uncontrollable. It has become blatantly obvious that almost every student in each of my classes simply uploads the questions and fills out whatever the AI says. As a teacher, I am so frustrated. I don't know what to do anymore. I feel like it's my responsibility to teach my students what they need before sending them onward, and yet they aren't learning because they aren't even trying. Is it my fault?? I learned that a teacher at a different school has begun "inverting" his math classes -- meaning he has recorded his lessons and assigns students to watch them at home, so that they do the typical "homework" assignments in class. He can then make sure technology is away so they can't use AI. Although I see some benefit to this, I don't really like the concept. How is it any better than something like Khan Academy? It has removed the in-person human element of teaching a class. Is this the future of teaching?? I really
