Where are all my music lovers at?? Get this. Imagine a place featuring many of today’s hottest artists, where you can experience music across a variety of genres for 2 days straight… The iHeartRadio music festival on the Las Vegas strip is where it was at this past weekend, people! Turns out I wasn’t there in the flesh. (Shocked, much??) But it was streamed across iHeartMedia across the country. And when I say there […]

There are few things as sure in life as aging. Aging healthfully and gracefully, though?? That’s entirely up to you. (Unless of course, you’ve been blessed with what they call, ‘good genes;’ in which case I hate you and you can skip this post.) In any case, while it may seem to be a rather morbid topic to bring up on a glorious day like today, when life looks good and we’re all going […]

So temps have been dropping out here in Jersey. Not sure if it’s just a fluke or if summer is really on its way out the door. I’ve still got my fingers crossed for some hazy, hot, beach days, but my local Target is telling me to give up the notion; what with all those Back to School signs around every bend. And you know what they say. If you can’t beat ‘em, join […]
Nurses face a lot of difficulties when trying to stay fit and healthy. What they are excellent at is keeping their patients in top shape, but when it comes to their own health, workouts, meals and work breaks often get neglected. But, if you want to be a super nurse and always be there to help your patients, you really need to start paying better attention to your own fitness and well-being. Luckily, that’s not […]
I can’t speak for you, but my idea of a summer soiree is an ice-cold glass of lemonade and a great book. Which is why we are officially rounding up my latest top 5 nurse reads for the SECOND time! I have a lot of questions, though. Is it considered a follow up to my last ‘Top Summer Reads’ blog post if it was a solid 3 years ago? Also, do I suddenly get […]
I love me some Zendaya. She’s all of 22 years old, but there’s something so fresh and authentic about her. She exudes a tremendous amount of confidence, is incredibly talented, (Sings? Check. Dances? Check. Acts? Check) and has a killer sense of style. In fact, today I’m crushing HARD on her red carpet look from the Los Angeles premiere of Spiderman: Far From Home. Y’know, that not so little movie she just did where […]
Alright, ladies! You had your time in the spotlight. In honor of June being Men’s Health Month, I’d like you to vacate the stage and allow the men of the health industry to step forward! That’s right. When it comes to scrubs, it’s (almost) always all about the women. However, men wear scrubs too; and they deserve to hear the same tips and tricks for choosing the perfect set of medical scrubs that you […]
She was my favorite contestant when American Idol made its long-awaited return to the small screen last year. And despite the fact that she only came in 3rd place, I’ve remained a die-hard fan ever since the show! Hold up. Did I forget to mention who this up and coming super star is?! Pardon me; I’m talking, obviously, about the adorable Gabby Barrett. She recently released her first single, ‘I Hope,’ and it’s been […]
WonderWink Pro Scrubs are definitely my favorite scrubs of the season, for lots of reasons. These scrubs are so stylish, yet still practical. And that’s exactly what today’s nurses need! Anyone can see that there are certainly some really smart (and terrifically talented!) scrub designers at WonderWink, who designed this wonderful Wonderwink Pro Scrub Collection. Just take a look at the nursing uniforms they created! This collection comes with really cute scrub tops […]
Overnight shifts are hard to get used to, especially if you’ve worked during the traditional diurnal schedule for most of your professional life. And if you think being a night owl is going to make it easier to get used to an overnight shift, well that’s not going to happen. Staying up at night for work is completely different. However, lots of people who wear nursing scrubs work overnight shifts. Nurses are usually the […]
Nursing is one of the most demanding but gratifying careers that you can choose. You’re helping people who are in need of medical care and enhancing the quality of their lives. The good thing about nursing is that there are several directions that you could grow in, and there is also a level of flexibility, which makes it appealing as well. If you’re reading this because you’ve started a nursing career and want to […]
Adults are a sleep challenged sub-sector of the human species. Nurses, even more so. Think rotating schedules, night shifts, over time, and high-pressure workdays. And here’s the thing; there is no magic pill to make these ‘challenges’ disappear and thus thrust you into a world of early bedtimes, sweet dreams, and easy wakeups. In fact, it is HARD to get quality shut eye as a nurse, let alone any sort of sleep at all. […]
For as long as the word ‘camp’ has been in my vernacular, I associated it with sleeping bags, tents, and late-night barbecues under the stars. Then the 2019 Met Gala happened, and it was as if the entire fashion world seemed to be mocking my plebeian take on this apparently multi-faceted concept. See, in 1964, Susan Sontag, an American writer, penned an essay under the title, ‘Notes on Camp,’ where she defines camp as, […]
I’d like to pose a question. If you had to choose one profession to rank as the No. 1 most trusted profession, which would it be?? Think about it… I can’t read your mind, but I can tell you that this question is asked to millions of people each year, and the nursing profession consistently ranks highest. Why, though? Why is it the nurse, as opposed to the doctor who is the one creating […]
I don’t have time to watch movies. Fact of life. Do I allow myself the luxury every now and then? Yes. But it’s got to be worth it. Little, in my opinion, is worth it! Before you run off and tell your besties, I’ve got to make a disclaimer. I have not watched it yet. In fact, it was just released; as in like a few days ago. Long story short, I stumbled across […]
Did you know that according to a health risk appraisal conducted by the American Nurses Association, nursing students and RNs have an average BMI of 27.6? That is in the overweight range, and that is a problem. The funny thing is that we’re talking about nurses. Nurses know what to do. In fact, nurses very often are the ones creating and implementing patients’ nutrition plans; which begs the question. What is happening here; why […]
Before you even begin shopping for nursing scrubs, you’re going to need to find a position in healthcare. While the number of jobs for nurses is on the rise and has been for the last ten years, there’s also a lot more people training in the healthcare industry and applying for jobs, which means the job market is more competitive than ever before. With this in mind, it goes without saying you’re going to […]
Running a medical facility is a stressful yet rewarding experience, and one that brings with it tremendous responsibilities. One responsibility that often falls through the cracks due to many seemingly more important details and critical situations which crop up, such as choosing the right medical staff uniforms. Quality nursing scrubs are essential for any medical facility and can play a crucial role in providing adequate care for patients. Here are a few reasons why you […]
