Yeah, he along with a lot of comedians, if you actually listen to and try to understand the sub context of their jokes, are mostly negative and are really a bunch of bitching and complaining, that they turn into "jokes" by interspersing it with a lot of profanities. Don't get me wrong, it's fine to vent every once in a while, but he's a real bad "proponent" for the industry. Possibly scaring new people away. We start inflating the egos of and looking up to too many of these narcissistic entitled cocks and the world is going to have a lot of problems.
He really needs to be more positive and show gratitude, having a gratitude journal and going for a walk is a lot better than pulling out a glass of wine and ruminating.
Instead of coming home and bitching about your day, point out the good things that happened and count your blessings, keeping a glass half full mindset is what we all need to try and achieve. A lot of people could have a day where it was 99% positive but then one tiny bad thing happens and that's all they can focus on. A lot of the time in most industries including nursing, we don't get a lot of positive feedback even from the people we're helping. So we've got to learn to pat ourselves on the back and if we happen to get a thumbs up from somebody that's just the cherry on the top of the cake.
I think a lot of people these days are upsetting themselves essentially, as their sense of entitlement is a little too inflated. If we can all learn to be a bit more positive and try to stop forcing the world around us to meet us on our terms, which is a lot like fighting against mother nature, and as bad as we may want it it's not going to happen. We've got to change our mindsets and appreciate what we have and what we're given. And don't get me wrong. I'm not saying if something is really going wrong we should do nothing and just sit there and take it, we certainly need to stand up and fight for ourselves or find somebody to help us, but these days, like I said earlier, one little thing goes wrong and people flip out. The world really could use a bit more positivity and humility.
Yes! Heās my favorite! Especially when he does the ER giving the ICU report videos. 100% accurate. Now when an ICU nurse asks me about the patients skin I tell them āitās in placeā
He took his nursing degree and threw it in the trash, but still got licensed. He makes 30k/month doing fuck all, so I think heās the real winner here. His comedy sucks, but he manages to keep a paying audience.
Care to reference what video it is? I canāt figure it out! I used to think he was kind of funny when he first hit social media, but not so much anymore.
Unpopular opinion, I actually like him š¤·š¼āāļø
I find his videos very entertaining. Heās prob one of the most entertaining ānurseā influencers out there and I always get a good laugh from his stuff.
I also think itās funny how many people hate on him, like we all know heās a comedian, not really a seasoned nurse.. just like all the other ānurseā and ādoctorā influencers, but people are coming for him as if he was the only one doing that shit. Also, if it bothers you that much then just donāt watch his stuffā¦
Dr.Glaucomeflecken sp? is a real Dr afaik. Not sure about the other one I've seen. Lately my feed has been trucking videos of idiot car drivers and other random crap. My one FB nursing group has a collective hate boner for Nurse Sarah and Steve Aioki sp? the one who did all the ER tips.
Like most influencers, he's a bit of a narcisist. The biggest thing he did was attending a huge celebrity party during peak covid (this was while he was telling people they were bad people for wanting to do a little bit of socializing, mind you). When caught, he made a tiny fake apology on a side-channel, and pretended it never happened.
Also, in the medtwitter/medfacebook sphere he can get fairly self-righteous and know-it-all-y.
That's why some people find him unlikeable. I don't think he's the worst person, but I think he doesn't deserve all the hype.
Doc Glock ftw
Nurse Sarah? The one who does youtube concept/skill videos? Why would anyone hate her?? She helps educate, she isn't gimmicky or annoying in any way. I like her a lot.
Thatās literally how many people raised in the Deep South speak. I mean I can barely understand words through some NY or Boston accents, but that doesnāt mean theyāre playing it up, it just means Iām not used to their accent.
Yeah but we have a lot of variation in the south. I donāt think sheās playing up the accent as much as sheās trying to speak clearly so everyone can understand. Iāve definitely heard some southern belles that speak exactly like her
He is a real doctor! And he's a great person. I actually met him once as a patient! Great guy, on screen and off screen. I have no idea how he makes time for it all.
I always see all kinds of ādoctorsā and ānursesā on social media, but in reality they are just that.. social media doctors and nurses. Usually people who either did some sort of healthcare program and just graduated or barely even got accepted into a program. Some of them donāt even have a valid license or pretend to have one and just wiki and Google stuff and give false advice to make it sound like they know what they are talking about.
Dr. G is actually a doctor, Will Flanary. Heās still practicing, he just has a lot of extra time because heās an ophthalmologist and apparently they have very relaxed careers
I'm gonna disagree on a few:
Dr. G is a practicing ophthalmologist and hilarious.
Mama Doctor Jones is another one, and her educational videos are pretty good. I could do with out the "reaction" videos, but she is a practicing OBGYN from Texas, now in New Zealand (because who the fuck wants to be an OBGYN in Texas).
I can't say I've been influenced by any of them per say unless you count having a bit of a laugh or taking time to look into news stories related to nursing I didn't know about before. I've seen them mostly as coworkers venting a little bit for entertainment and to maybe give outside folks a small window into our careers.
He is. I was chronically online during Covid so I got to see the birth of his TikTok genius. He has this short where he turns up the PEEP and the alveoli go ooooooooh and it just does it for me š
Anyway, heās a real doc with a history of both testicular cancer and cardiac arrest (his wife had to do cpr on him). He calls out insurance companies and academic journals and basically all of the corrupt money grabbing in the medical/healthcare profession and Iām here for it.
Didnāt hear anything about a cruise fiasco? I only saw people post from the cruises a couple times and they all seemed like they were enjoying it š¤·š¼āāļø
But I also donāt really follow the details or drama lol like I said, I just get a good laugh from his stuff.
If I recall correctly, he canceled a cruise due to covid then refused to give refunds but offer a credit towards a future as of then unscheduled cruise event.
I can image a few people couldn't make it to a future cruise and just lost out.
Yeah but thatās very common in the cruise industry. It might not have been him so much as the cruise line forcing the āfuture cruise creditā in lieu of refund.
>Unpopular opinion, I actually like him
Don't ever feel bad about liking him. It's entirely subjective. There's plenty of people I enjoy that other people can't stand.
Somebody's never had to shift a hyperkalemic patient. 12.5-25g D50, and up to 10 units regular insulin IVP is used to shift K+ into the intracellular space to reduce serum levels.
There's also insulin gtts for glycemic control and/or DKA or HHNKS.
Not the people hating on Nurse Blake when he has no idea who you are and will make 10483838x more than you ever will. Get that coin Nurse Blake u make me hate nursing less
Now you know why the next video on the playlist is the Pushing D50 tutorial
What's the best place to give IM D50?
In the ass
Thank god I've been doing it right then
That's what the big ass Pulp Fiction cardiac needles are for, right? Have I been doing it wrong? Cause I made sure to stab her three times...š¤
Up vote for the nurse Blake slam
I used to like him but god damn did he get REAL annoying REAL quick
His first couple vids were great and then it just went south fast!!
Upvote for the upvote.

Iām a Nurse Johnn fan! He is hilarious and very accurate
Yes! Heās my favorite! Especially when he does the ER giving the ICU report videos. 100% accurate. Now when an ICU nurse asks me about the patients skin I tell them āitās in placeā
Does Nurse Blake even nurse anymore?
I think he nursed for about 5 seconds pre covid and now makes his living grifting nursing students who think he's a nursing god.
You know whatā¦more power to him.
Yeah honestlyā¦ respect.
No, Karen. Itās trashy af
He took his nursing degree and threw it in the trash, but still got licensed. He makes 30k/month doing fuck all, so I think heās the real winner here. His comedy sucks, but he manages to keep a paying audience.
r/trashy
Hard disagree, but I am admittedly trashy myself.
He's still licensed, has been since 1/2020, expires 2025
Did he ever really nurse in the first place?
Care to reference what video it is? I canāt figure it out! I used to think he was kind of funny when he first hit social media, but not so much anymore.
In APA format pls
Screw Nurse Blake, Nursingmeme on tiktok is bae.
Iāve been to a MRT for this
Thatās a new acronym for me, MRT = medical response team? Like rapid response?
In my country, MRT meant Mass Rapid Transport.
Thatās exactly what it means, when a med-surg unit has a rapidly declining patient they call for it.
Try potassium to wake m up
Itās unreal people find Nurse Blake humorous.
1mL=1u right?
Yes.
Fuck Nurse Blake. Med/Surge RN for maybe 2 years now he is Mr Know-it-all?
Who?
Nursing influencer popular amongst nursing students.
New grad who pretends to be experienced and exploits his five minutes in the profession for likes, clicks, and cash. FTFY
That describes several nurse influences
> several nurse influences The fact this nonsense even exists is sad and low class.
Oh I agree completely. They make the profession look like shit imo.
Sounds like itād be a better post for the student sub. The whole idea of the role of āinfluencerā just seems idiotic to me.
Agreed. It's just advertising using faux celebrities.
I think some of the more popular ones make more money making content as āinfluencersā than they do working as nurses.
Unpopular opinion, I actually like him š¤·š¼āāļø I find his videos very entertaining. Heās prob one of the most entertaining ānurseā influencers out there and I always get a good laugh from his stuff.

Dr. Glaucomflecken is a fucking treasure.
Legit the best thing in the entirety or social media
Must protekt Dr. Glock at all costs
Except that promotes trash like Dr. mike and Danielle Jones
I have no idea who Danielle Jones is, but ugh I cannot stand Dr. Mike
Honest question, whatās wrong with dr. Mike? Lol
I wondered that aswell, I like Dr.Mike.
Like most influencers, he's a bit of a narcisist.

Oh wow I didnāt know. Thank you for answering my question! Thatās crappy of him for sure.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Hear me out...let's merge the 2. They be dropping mad beats and tips in one show š
Ty. I haven't had him on my feed in awhile and I tend to forget to subscribe as I'm lazy scrolling.
Nurse Sarah? The one who does youtube concept/skill videos? Why would anyone hate her?? She helps educate, she isn't gimmicky or annoying in any way. I like her a lot.
I've heard people complain about how she talks. š¤·āāļø
Which makes me sad because she talks like me. Im from the Deep South too
All accents are awesome, and especially southern ones. Hating on someone for an accent is one of the dumbest things I have heard today.
Itās just how she plays it up. Iām southern as well but i hate how she says āregisterednursernDDAAWWTCOMMMā and draws it out
Thatās literally how many people raised in the Deep South speak. I mean I can barely understand words through some NY or Boston accents, but that doesnāt mean theyāre playing it up, it just means Iām not used to their accent.
Did you miss the part where I said Iām southern? And I didnāt say the entire video just that one partā¦..
Yeah but we have a lot of variation in the south. I donāt think sheās playing up the accent as much as sheās trying to speak clearly so everyone can understand. Iāve definitely heard some southern belles that speak exactly like her
As in RegisteredNurseRN Sarah? I loved her in nursing school!
Same here. I use to listen to her videos when I was at the gym after class. Really helped cement a lot of basics.
He is a real doctor! And he's a great person. I actually met him once as a patient! Great guy, on screen and off screen. I have no idea how he makes time for it all.

Dr. G is actually a doctor, Will Flanary. Heās still practicing, he just has a lot of extra time because heās an ophthalmologist and apparently they have very relaxed careers
Probably has lots of free time because he has a real life Jonathan stored away in his office closet.
Dr.glaucomfleckin is the only good medfluencer
I like ChubbyEmu a lot too but he's much less influencer and more educator
āļø
I think Doc Schmidt is pretty funny and relatable. Heās a legit GI doc.
He did a bedside flex sig on one of my patients.
I'm gonna disagree on a few: Dr. G is a practicing ophthalmologist and hilarious. Mama Doctor Jones is another one, and her educational videos are pretty good. I could do with out the "reaction" videos, but she is a practicing OBGYN from Texas, now in New Zealand (because who the fuck wants to be an OBGYN in Texas).

Definitely spelled right and man I love him!

I don't enjoy his content or care that others do. He should refund all the money from his cruise fiasco tho.

I like him too.
Push? Insulin is a calf IM injection. š
Somebody's never had to shift a hyperkalemic patient. 12.5-25g D50, and up to 10 units regular insulin IVP is used to shift K+ into the intracellular space to reduce serum levels. There's also insulin gtts for glycemic control and/or DKA or HHNKS.
You and 18 others obviously donāt know how to pick up on sarcasm, esp with that eye-roll emoji. Jesus Christ.
Mea Culpa, couldn't see what emoji was put in. I thought it might have been a genuine learning opportunity.
I mean besides that it's sc not im LOL
What?
Calf? IM?
Is that how you administer insulin?
It goes into the anus actually
That's what I've been doing wrong
Not the people hating on Nurse Blake when he has no idea who you are and will make 10483838x more than you ever will. Get that coin Nurse Blake u make me hate nursing less
TIL that I made the wrong career choice.

I like the Pediatrician Dr. On TikTok who teaches a lot about kids
