This is the nurse from my previous reel. Please go This is the nurse from my previous reel. Please go over to tiktok to hear Eugene tell his entire story @nurseeugenem. Send him some encouragement. And share the message. Let’s show him the support he didn’t get on that unit. No this situation isn’t in the news yet. Not everything is in the news friends. It doesn’t make it less real or less damaging.  #patientcare #nurse  #thelastpizzaparty #nurselife
This week, Eugene MSN, RN , a travel ER and ICU nu This week, Eugene MSN, RN , a travel ER and ICU nurse was attacked by a patient for 30 minutes while working in the ER. He was wearing an emergency safety button, given to him by the hospital, and despite pressing it continuously and screaming for help, no help arrived for 30 minutes. When asked why? Hospital staff and security reported they assumed it was the patient screaming and pressing the button and that Eugene was probably just putting an IV in. Eugene is a Black member of the LGBTQ community, and feels it raised a lot of questions as to the reason for His complete abandonment by his colleagues. Eugene is hospitalized after the attack, and the administration at the hospital he was working at has asked him to not report the event to police, as it would reflect poorly on the hospital. Always. Report. Always. We are not martyrs. Patient violence is not OK. And Until we start reporting every single incident, nothing will change.

Tabling a bill means it goes into timeout. PA SB95 Tabling a bill means it goes into timeout. PA SB956 that will limit access to ivf and birth control was taken OFF the table, or taken out of time out on June 28th. So it is up for vote. Please check out your states language surrounding these laws and bills. And let your legislators know WHY language like ā€œprotect life from conceptionā€ are dangerous for ivf and birth control

So nurses can’t speak out against nurse patient So nurses can’t speak out against nurse patient ratios because they’ll get fired. And families can’t speak up because they’ll get banned from the hospital and legally threatened. Solid. If you experience something like this please let me know. I want to make these things public knowledge. Because the hospitals don’t care if the nurses are mad. They care if the public is mad. Wouldn’t it be awesome if patients chose their hospitals based on known patient nurse ratios?

When I first saw this headline being reposted I wa When I first saw this headline being reposted I was infuriated. The fact that Black people are 4 times more likely to die in the perinatal period in Louisiana is appalling, and this seemed to brush that off.  But as it turns out, this is the media sensationalizing a very poorly worded attempt to actually address some of the problems in the state. Have you seen this? #reproductiverights #reproductivehealth #blacklivesmatter #healthcare #nursepractitioner #npstudent #nursingstudent #louisiana #senatorcassidy
Medically, An abortion is a pregnancy that ends pr Medically, An abortion is a pregnancy that ends prior to 20 weeks.  Whether you appreciate the use of that language or not. Just to clarify. Even when they are to treat an ectopic pregnancy. Or other life threatening condition.

Welcome to the healthclass you never had. Today we Welcome to the healthclass you never had. Today we’ll be talking about Ectopic Pregnancies

Lets review what we learned last time about how a routine pregnancy develops. 

Egg released from ovary, travels through Fallopian tube where it meets a sperm, that fertilizes the egg, and the fertilized egg than implants in the nutrient rich, fluffy, and supportive wall of a uterus and begins to grow. The uterus is made to accommodate a growing pregnancy. Remember that. 

With an ectopic pregnancy, an egg is released from an ovary, it meets the sperm in the Fallopian tube, becomes fertilized, but instead of traveling to the uterus to set up shop, it implants in the wall of something else. 

Most often with ectopic pregnancies the fertilized egg never leaves the Fallopian tube, and attaches to the wall within the tube. 

But the wall of the Fallopian tube isn’t designed to sustain a pregnancy. It doesn’t have the blood supply to feed the pregnancy, or the muscle support to carry one, or the stretch to accommodate one. 

Therefore, if an ectopic pregnancy is allowed to continue, it will grow until it literally explodes out of the area it is contained, usually between 6 to 15 weeks. And when your organs explode, you don’t live very long. 

The only treatment for an ectopic pregnancy is abortion. Sometimes with a pill, and sometimes with a surgical procedure, depending on how far along the pregnancy is and where it is. 

Thanks for the question. Let me know if you have any others!

Emergency Contraception is NOT abortion. There are Emergency Contraception is NOT abortion. There are 4 types of emergency contraception. Plan B, Ella, combining oral contraception, and a copper IUD. Each has different timing parameters and limitations to familiarize yourself with. But overall, the sooner these are taken to the date of unprotected sex, the more effective!

You have 3 days after unprotected sex to take Plan You have 3 days after unprotected sex to take Plan B  in order to have a 88-98% chance of avoiding pregnancy. 3 days. If you think victims are seeking care within 3 days of an assault you live in a different universe. For many it is unsafe to do so that quickly because they cannot leave their homes, many can’t afford the medication, many never come forward out of trauma, many never seek medical care or counseling because of the costs of visits/ER trips. And many have no idea what happened to them or how that event may lead them to become pregnant. This is an idealized solution that would never work in real life and blames the victim for not ā€œaddressing the situation appropriately with medicationā€. And that is never Ok.

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts in the last few I’ve been seeing a lot of posts in the last few days  about Tennessee banning Plan B, and making it illegal for pharmacists to provide it starting next year because of a new Law the Governor just signed. 

And friends. When it comes to being mad about the annihilation of reproductive healthcare? I’m Here for it. But we have to be mad about the right things. 

As far as I can tell this bill has to do with oral abortion pills. Not plan B.

 Plan B is not an abortion medication. 

And if I’m reading the changes to the law correctly, there should be no changes to the way you can access plan B. 

Which should be widely available, and something you don’t even need a prescription for. 

Plan B PREVENTS pregnancy. It doesn’t end it. 

Just wanted to clear that up because Plan B often gets called things its not, and I want us to focus our anger at the things that are wrong, not incorrectly reported things on the google. 

Feel free to let me know about other random claims you hear on the internet. 

I’ll let you know if we should be mad.

He was recently in trial defending against murder charges after 34 of his patients passed away after receiving doses of fentanyl he ordered at the time palliative extubation. 

A jury found him not guilty, finding this act to be one of mercy instead of malice. Here are my thoughts. What are yours?
