A World Without Nurses

This video gives you a snapshot of why the world needs nurses. Nursing is possibly one of the most important professions in the world. Yet, nurses continue to be undervalued by so many. This inspirational video will throw a new light on this wonderful profession. Produced by Ausmed Education. Please note, all comments are moderated and those considered to be abusive, defamatory or discriminatory will not be published.
*As a number of people have pointed out, it should say fewer nurses not less nurses between 0.56 and 1.03 in the video. Apologies for the mistake. We hope it doesn't lessen your enjoyment of the video.

    First lesson learned in nursing school is: " The doctor is the mind of the hospital, but the nurse is the soul!" that's what my medical psychology teacher told me.

    +Ausmed-Education for Nurses -I love this!! Best video I've seen in a long time. My teacher used this in class to show the different types of medical careers that one can pursue and to also make sure that nurses are recognized for all of their hard work and dedication. I have been passionate about nursing since I was about 12, and I'm ready to start college and work towards helping patients and their families. Very touching video.

    Anyone who feels nurses are overpaid is sorrily mistaken. I would never presume to judge whether someone in another profession was over/underpaid without having personal experience or first hand knowledge of what it takes to do their job, and the different ways in which the demands of that job impact that person. Society needs a better, more realistic understanding of what it takes to deal with a demanding profession like nursing.

    Shortage of nurses can be a major influencing factor in quality care delivery; as the volume of patients and patient care needs rise, the quality of care delivered may not be as outstanding when time is limited to cover a diverse population of patients with diverse health care needs. Therefore, nursing shortage in any community should be a major concern for quality nursing care services. Thank you for sharing.

    Thank you. I'm a registered nurse in the U.S. The starting pay for nurses in my area is $19.00/hr...and I'm a regional hospital that specializes in a few top areas like cardiology. You're lucky to get a $0.30 raise per year. People in our area see our hourly wage and think we earn too much. I wish they could walk in my very worn shoes for one shift. They wouldn't last two hours, guaranteed. I'm thankful to get to go to the restroom once a shift...and lunch break...what's that!

    Nursing is an amazing and highly underapreciated field. But at the same time it is also a highly competitive field to get into. I've been trying to gain acceptance into a Batchelors in nursing science for three years now. The last time I didn't get in was actually due to an administrative issue on the university's side. I'm forced to study a different degree while I keep trying to gain acceptance but in South-Africa it is extremely hard. All nursing collages have been closed down due to a curriculum change and the universities that provide nursing degrees are few and far inbetween. Even worse is the limited number of first years they accept. For example the University of Pretoria who only accepts 50 first years. This means that many don't ever get the chance to even start studying in the nursing field because of this and then there are other factors such as living cost, because many can't afford to study outside of their emediat area. Bursaries are also rare and international ones even more so. Nursing remains the passion of many, however most never get the chance to even start on that journey. This includes me but I'm still trying and fighting to work towards my passion and ambition for nursing. I will join the ranks of nurses aventually. I'm not one to quit. The nursing field desperately requires more attention world wide. Nurses are the unsung heroes that not many people talk about and even worse is the misperceptions that so many carry regarding the nursing field. Thank you for this video highlighting the importance and rarity of nurses.

    Here in the states, it also doesn't help that most diploma programs(who developed some of the BEST nurses), ADN programs and LPN's are being forced out of hospitals. It is NOT the letters behind your name that make a nurse. It is a combination of education, life experiences, self motivation, integrity, morals, etc. I have witnessed hospitals phasing out seasoned nurses with said degrees and hiring brand new BSN nurses without experience or a mentor. I recently have noticed Cleveland Clinic in Ohio is hiring new grads under a mentor program. Thank God!! It used to be that new nurses had a long orientation and paired with experienced nurses. Not so any longer. How would you like to be the new grad caring for patients with having no experience?? Better yet? How would you like to be the patient? But, hey........it is a "status" thing to fool the public.

Should I keep my registration active because I might be of use in areas that may need me? Once a Nurse ALWAYS a Nurse. Maybe I will be of use in a Nursing Home because I have Acute skills and compassion that could benefit those who are as old or older than me? We will see when I retire in 3 months at 65 and 10 months old after 52 years of service in the Public Health System of Queensland and NSW

Nurses are the first to be blamed if a patient goes south; the first to be held responsible if the patient isn't cured, the last person to be thanked, and the first person to be thrown 'under-the-bus' if the patient (and/or their family) disagrees with the medical (doctor) diagnosis.

    Many of my colleagues have already retired or left the profession. I am close. Even here in the United States, employers are not looking for "care". They want $$$$ and a warm body. The wages of nurses in most areas have either decreased or stayed the same over the last 20 years. Not to mention the horrible healthcare benefits offered, if any!! I would not recommend nursing under the conditions present. It has become unsafe care and all about "for profit"!

    According to the bibles genealogy the world is only 6000 years old which disputes fossil records and all science which prove the earth is 5.4 billion years old Jesus said nearly 2000 years ago:Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." And he said speaking of end times when the antichrist would come: Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. And speaking of slavery which the bible permits: When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property. Also the tribe of benjamin was permitted to capture "a damsel or two for himself" and force them into marriage to unwillingly bear children by rape. Deuteronomy 13:12 you hear it said about one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you to live in that troublemakers have arisen among you and have led the people of their town astray, saying, "Let us go and worship other gods" (gods you have not known), then you must inquire, probe and investigate it thoroughly. And if it is true and it has been proved that this detestable thing has been done among you,you must certainly put to the sword all who live in that town. You must destroy it completely, both its people and its livestock.(including people who had nothing to do with it)... .
