In this episode, I dig deeper into the wonders of epidural infusion as a form of analgesia in the ward. It's a good painkiller but could also be critical so I decided to talk about it in my pod. I have included the indications, contraindications, assessments, potential complications and removal/stopping the epidural infusion.

Another week, another episode and today is all about mistakes. These are the 10 common nursing mistakes that I have on my list but there could be a lot more. Anyway, mistakes are normal as we are just human but we still have to avoid making mistakes as much as we can. I thought it's good to know these so you can be more careful and avoid having mistakes in the future. You can find me in youtube by searching 'Little Pinay Nurse'

In this episode I have talked about different kind of doctors and colleagues that you will be working with in the ward. I think it's good to know who you will expect to meet at work and who to ask help with if you may need assistance with some of your patients. For those Filipino nurses who are just waiting for their UKRN application or just about to start their journey, this is a very good thing to watch or listen to, especially if you will be assigned to a ward.
