Happy birthday babe ๐Ÿ˜ Iโ€™ve never formally in Happy birthday babe ๐Ÿ˜ 
Iโ€™ve never formally introduced my husband on here which is stupid

There are bad people everywhere. Every profession. My husband is the most beautiful, caring soul I have ever met. Iโ€™m not just saying this because Iโ€™m married to the guy. If you know him personally, I know you think the same of him. 

Before he became a police officer, I really had no clue the extent of the profession. I just knew they were annoying when they called the nurses for info we couldnโ€™t give out ๐Ÿ˜‚. I thought nursing was a pretty awesome mindf*ck of a job, but after hearing how his shifts go, itโ€™s really amazing how we can both comfort eachother with our similar feelings & experiences. 

He is my hero. 
He finds people who have died in their homes alone & makes sure they are cared for with dignity. He answers calls for domestic vi0lence & doesnโ€™t leave until he knows those women feel safe & heard. He gets approached by the homeless asking if he can help them find their lost dog, the only friend they have. He finds young teens hanging out with the wrong crowd & talks to them like a friend, & encourages them that they can be anything they want to be. He gets the desperate call of someone who wants to end their life, & is incredible at talking them into giving themselves a second chance. 

He is amazing and makes a difference. I love you babe ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ’™

License & Certification Renewal Made Easy

July 2, 2019

Is it just me, or were you guys a little shocked after graduating nursing school realizing how many CEUs you needed annually, AND the chaos that accompanies license and certification renewal? Same. Like, I try my best to print out my CEUs as I get them, and then I stick them in my office…somewhere…and end up finding them 5 years later crumpled up when they’re worth nothing. The first time renewing my nursing license was chaotic and stressful, and I would always forget when it was due to be renewed cause like, who thinks to remember that.

Luckily, I came across this app called Nurse Backpack, where you can keep track of all your nursing shit. You can upload photos and expiration dates for your nursing license and certifications, like your CCRN (which, if you aren’t certified here‘s why you should be). So you just enter all your stuff into this app and boom. Your phone will remind you two months and then one month before they expire. So you dont have to worry about your reminder letter getting lost in the mail from the oh-so-reliable BRN.

You can also keep track of your job history and active memberships like with AACN, and any honors or awards with dates – if that helps you with resume-building. It’s so annoying to be editing your resume and having to think back in time of, “when did I get that again?” or “how long was I at that job?” Ugh. No thanks.

Also on this app you can select different job interests if you’re looking for a new job. Nurse Backpack creates a resume for you easily with everything you’ve added to your profile. Travel nurses can also add which agencies and hospitals they’ve worked at and for how long. You can send any of your documents to a manager, recruiter, whoever… right from this app.

So instead of scrambling through piles of paperwork in your office a week before your license expires, have access to your expiration dates and all that extra nursey stuff in one safe place that’s always on you. We work hard enough as nurses, our time shouldn’t be spent panicking on our days off trying to organize paperwork. As a perk, you can also get 5 bucks for referring 5 friends once you download the app and send them your code. Best part is that the app is free.

Search for Nurse Backpack on the app store or google play today!
