In this episode Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica interview Andrew White, creator of the 'Meanwhile In the Breakroom' Series on TikTok and Instagram, and a seasoned nurse and social media content creator. They discuss Andrew's journey from CNA to ICU nurse and the public perception of nurses leading to unrealistic expectations. The conversation touches on toxic management, the role of hospice, the implications of CPR, and nurse burnout. The speakers discuss extreme behaviors exhibited by some patients, the emotional toll of patient abuse on nurses, and the pervasive martyr mentality within the nursing profession. They also explore the transition to social media content creation as a coping mechanism for burnout and the challenges of navigating cancel culture. The conversation dives into the creative process behind Andrew White's series 'Meanwhile in the Break Room', character development, and storytelling in nursing.
