My 17 year old had a seizure and the ER bill was $15000. We had health insurance through my job.

Nurses practice autonomously. We're not just "the doctor's helper." We're responsible for assessing patients, making our own clinical judgments and acting on them. 6/6

Nursing takes its code of ethics very seriously. Developed by the American Nurses Association, the ethical code includes individual accountability, patient advocacy, and a commitment to health equity and social justice. 5/6

Every registered nurse in the US is licensed. To practice anywhere, you have to take and pass the NCLEX, which is an adaptive exam that tests critical thinking and clinical judgment. 4/6

To become an RN, you have to have a minimum of an associates' degree. You have to have courses in chemistry, microbiology, anatomy and physiology, socialogy and psychology. Most nurses go beyond that entry level and hold a bachelors degree (73%). 20% of nurses earn masters' degrees or higher. 3/ 6

A profession is typically described as work that requires advanced education, continuing education, licensure, an ethical framework, and autonomous practice. Nursing meets all of those requirements. 2/6

A couple of days ago, everyone was talking about young people's futures in "blue collar jobs." Several people mentioned nursing as one of those jobs It's not. Nursing isn't a trade. It's a profession. 1/6

If your AI schedules over the top of my previously approved PTO, I am calling in and/or quitting. I’m not missing my kid’s high school graduation or my cruise because you won’t pay a human to make the schedule. 3/3

Dawn Kamadulski O’Leary @katarzyna.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Creating hospital schedules is extremely labor intensive and requires many hours of labor by managers. If you mess it up, you’re making people exhausted and angry. People quit over this stuff. There’s always another job if you’re a nurse. 2/3

Probably not going to flip Florida, but flipping Texas and Iowa is possible. I think the GOP is going to have 10-15 years as a minority party while they work on theirselves. It’s going to take some time to walk this racist nonsense back and get back to bring business bros.

My grandma was a Christian woman, but none of her grandkids wanted her to pray for them. Her prayers worked. Bad things happened when that woman prayed for you. She prayed for my uncle to stop running the streets and he got arrested and sent to prison.

Fun fact: Dolly Parton spent decades quietly funding band uniforms and instruments at Black high schools across the South - never once putting her name on it. No headlines, no fanfare — just help, given because it was needed. Wonderful Heart ♥️ RIP Dolly ❤️

One thing I’ve noticed about the estranged child discourse is that whenever an outsider comments on it, they’ll say something like, “Well, it’s different if you’ve ACTUALLY been ABUSED.” In their minds, there’s some threshold, never specifically defined, that makes it okay to walk away.
