💉 Code blues. Vent settings. Life-saving meds. CPR. Grief.
Welcome to a day in the life of an ICU nurse.

In this reel, we’re reminded that being a nurse means living at the intersection of life and death. We save lives while managing heartbreak—and we do it every shift.

⚠️ But here’s the truth: we must learn to set boundaries. We will take some of the pain home, but we don’t have to carry it all.
🧠 We need to normalize the mental load of nurses and support each other in healing, too.

💬 How do you manage the emotional weight of the work you do?
