Gary the ER Nurse
@gartholemieux.bsky.social
Professionally, I am an ER nurse. Personally, I am a work in progress.
It’s an inside joke. You should follow me on TikTok to get the joke. 😂

Episode 4 of the Beyond the Call Light Podcast comes out Friday, Nov. 14. I interviewed TheVascularGuy about all things IV access. In this clip he talks about establishing IV access on a patient with pitting edema. #ernurse #nursingstudent #nursingschool

My thoughts on the AHA’s recommendations regarding mechanical CPR devices in prehospital settings. It’s caused quite a stir in the EMS community.

Here is a simple med math equation that literally saved my nursing school career before it even got started. Be sure to follow me on other social media channels with the same handle.

Hey nurses and nursing students! Do you know what the additives are in the blood tubes? And what they do? I’ve drawn thousands of blood tubes in my career, but for a long time, I didn’t know what was in them. #nurses #nursingstudents #ernurses

What’s inside those blood culture bottles? Let’s talk about it. Also, there is an order of collection: aerobic before anaerobic! In my example, green before orange. #ernurse #nurses

We have so many coffee mugs. Why? If I ever have that many people at my house to need that many mugs, I’ll need to add some Irish cream to mine to survive that level of socialization.

Some have made fun of my parking. Today, I prove it’s it me, it’s the lines! Is this intentional? Like a funnel? I’ve been at this for 20+ years and never noticed this before.

Every. Bloody. Time.

OK, I am giving skylight and honest go. TikTok continues to implement, ridiculous censorship, particularly those with left, leaning political ideologies. So, I am going to make a concerted effort to try building a following here.

Reposting from my TT account, more as a trial post. This is nursing related.

This is just me being unusually meticulous with how I lay out my IV supplies, right? #nurses #ernurses

I’m conflicted. I’m glad it’s back but really? It had to be because of him?

TikTok just went dark for me 🥺

Today, we took our kids bowling and on the screens were random trivia "facts." One said that February 1865 is the only month w/o a full moon. I looked it up. It is false. It happens every 19ish years. If you can't trust bowling alley trivia, what can you trust?

My subtle signs of resistance.

Most veterans I work with likely voted for him. But at least one didn’t and they made it very clear. #resist

I’m charge nurse the next shift I work and I want this on my desk. Motivation is key. #nurses

Time for some tea and biscuits. A proper @leicestercity.bsky.social Foxes win over West Ham and a Jamie Vardy goal. Christmas decorations complete. Now that’s a productive day that is.

It’s 29 degrees outside with snow flurries and what am I doing on my day off? Putting up the rest of the outdoor Christmas decorations. For the kids. Currently I’m taking a break for hot chocolate in my Polar Express 20th Anniversary mug. Naturally.

Getting at it early before another 12-hour ER shift. Gotta fill up my cup before I can care for others. #peloton
