ANA PAULA DA SILVA

I'm a Brazilian nurse, I came from another country, from another language, so I can't measure the help and support I'm getting from you, I'm very grateful. You are incredible, a true angel! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. God bless you!

This course exceeds my expectation. The Basics is all I need. I wish I'd found your course/ internet info. earlier, then I can properly avoid the hurdles that I encountered in prior year. Yes, I was that timid mouse you were talking about, worst of it, a disoriented timid mouse. Time is of the essence. It's dawn on me - I've got myself a lot to learn clinically, So glad I struck the right path since you are here with us/ the newbies.

Angela, MSN RN

I took the mini course and I think it was really helpful! I am not a new grad but I have worked in administrative nursing roles for many years and am transitioning to bedside nursing and have much to re-learn. I found these tips to be realistic and supportive with just the right amount of tips for how to jump this "new" hurdle. I have been practicing giving report and most have gone fine but there were a few that were disorganized and annoying even to me.....so when the oncoming nurse was snarky, it did make me feel very insecure. This mini course has a couple great tips for those situations and I appreciated them. I will seek more of these classes to support myself in this transition. Thanks!

I'm new to the US and previously worked in the Philippines as HD and also in the Medicine unit. Part of my plan is to go back in bedside nursing and step out also in my comfort zone in dialysis and this course is really helpful and gave me a glimpse on what to do if ill be hired in the MedSurg unit. Dealing with rude staffs, Stay on the ground and do not internalize are the things that impacted me since knowing my personality that I tend to be affected if I'm being questioned with people showing condescending behavior. It will actually sometimes faze my performance sometimes. I really appreciate staffs who are very willing to teach newbies like me.

Nikki, BA ADN RN

Nursing Report was really great! Can't wait to start Med Surg Mindset. Every new nurse or anyone needing help with giving hand-off reports could really use this. Katie keeps things pertinent and simple. I really appreciate the explanations, as I always like to know the "why" behind, pretty much everything! Thank you for being a Nurse Educator who really cares about helping new nurses.

Tips on shift reports was awesome... Not just for the organizational perspective, but also in confidence on being prepared and then being confident. I'm currently on med surge rotations as a student. This will be tremendously helpful in me building a strong foundation.

Agnes

I has been very enlightening for me as a new nurse I now know how to receive report and give report properly.All you have shared are very useful so I can be confident in giving hand over report. Thank you.

Lisa

Very informative and helpful lessons!! Thank you for identifying and addressing so many issues I have with receiving and providing report. I took notes while watching the video and learned so much. I would love to see a completed report sheet in addition to the blank one. Thanks again! I wish I could afford to take the whole med surg course!!!

Maggie

As a new grad, your Nursing Report Basics helped me realize something I do inadvertently, giving report in a manner that is almost seeking of permission, timid, mousey shy manner, when I am full aware that I got this. It helped call my attention to the tone I should be using when doing TOA, and being confident with how to handle situations with nit-picky nurses.

Great little course! Gerat review of how to give a good report while being assertive.

[NURSING REPORT BASICS] Very helpful for new grad med-surg nurse. The floor can be stressful and busy and I think this will help me get the hang of things a bit faster.

Olena

I finished my first week at the orientation on the Med/Surge unit, and I felt like I was all over the place. It is hard for me to catch up on things as senior nurses do everything fast and automatically; they do not go deep into explaining what they just did or why. I feel like they expect you to know it already. But I cannot know everything; that is my first nursing job, and all of my clinicals were online through vSim and Shadow Health due to COVID. You cannot learn from that?! I am grateful I found "FreshRN." That is exactly what I needed. I admire how Kati Kleber explains stuff easily and understandably in a friendly manner. I just finished the Nursing Report Basics and I am about to dig into the Med-Surge course. Thank you for everything you do for new nurses.

I'm not sure why, but I find getting and giving report to be more stressful than patient care. You definitely provided some helpful tips that I am going to implement!

Kelli Gunthorp

I really appreciate this Nursing Report Basics course you offered. I am a new nurse and report has been one of the most dreaded events of the shift for me...giving to the oncoming nurse. I took notes and will definitely watch again to learn it better. Thank you so much for offering this knowledge and tips.

Excellent as always!

Nursing Report Basics helped to confirm the things I was doing right and gave me ideas on how to be better. I like the section about how to deal with a rude off going nurse because I dealt with that recently and it really bothered me. Now it doesn't phase me at all and I know how to prepare myself for nurses who are condescending like that.

Isabella Garcia

Amazing content and advice. You hit all the point that I fear and face during report hand off and receiving. I am two years into bedside nursing, but this is still extremely relevant and I wish I watched it when I was a new grad! Thank you so much :)

Laurel

I really appreciated the simple tips and advice when giving and receiving report. My first day off orientation is tomorrow so I’m looking forward to seeing how these tips go! :) definitely made report seem less scary!

Thalita Viruet

I appreciate the time you took to provide us with this mini course. It was very helpful and made me feel a little more confident with report. We tend to get the entire pt hx and it becomes a bit cumbersome when not all of it is relevant to the pt's admission. Thank you so much!!!

K

Karra

I love everything I have found on your website/blog post and podcast! I never knew I could find so many things to guide my career. ON TOP OF THAT its free information! Thank you. Thank you for genuine advice, tips and tricks, and knowledge that you can't find in a nursing school textbook.

Denise Coffield, LPN

BEST resources for new grad nurses! Practical, logical and delivered in a caring tone that encourages me. Thank you for providing quality information.

Matt McVay

I really got a lot out of your stuff about giving report to the nitpicking nurse. I've been a nurse for six months and I've been working four shifts a week. The job is hard and I'm learning every shift but I've found the stuff I take home with me is not the rapid response or code but a nasty nurse at shift change. Just two days ago on my fifth shift in six days I had to wait forty-five minutes to give report only to have the nurse ask me things like "How does she take her pills?" I would have told you if they needed to be crushed in apple sauce or one at a time. I was hot. Your video was very helpful and I'll implement some of it moving forward. Thanks.

Brook Walters, ASN RN

Hi Kati! I took the Nursing Report Basics course and I absolutely loved it. It helped me understand what the purpose of report actually is and what you should be focusing on when giving report. As a new grad nurse finding out what you should be focusing on when giving report makes it so much easier. Knowing what to focus on also makes it smoother when giving report to the oncoming nurse. I love how you have a video and you also sum up the points for the video because I am a visual and auditory learner. I also wanted to thank you for a course that specifically for new grad nurses.

[NURSING REPORT BASICS & TELEMETRY BASICS] I am an RN with years of experience in Skilled Nursing Facilities and Community-Based Case Management. I hope to eventually work in acute care but I needed a "refresher course" as it's been years since my last clinical rotation at a med-surg/cardiac unit. Having worked as a registry nurse many moons ago, I understand that the shift reporting in my current long-term care environment typically focuses on different aspects of patient care compared to that of a hospital setting. Because of this, I cannot fully express how grateful I am to have recently encountered the Fresh RN podcast, and being able to access Kati's valuable knowledge and perspectives, including her "Nursing Report Basics" and Telemetry programs. They have given me a renewed sense of wellness and positive outlook. Kati is such a great communicator and motivational influence. I intend to enroll in at least one of her nursing package courses soon.

Yvonne

Just finished "Nursing Report Basics." Even as a seasoned nurse, I love these review courses from Kati's perspective--I always pick up something new that I can use. I also appreciate these courses to use with any preceptees and nursing students; it's nice to be reminded of things that newer nurses may be particularly concerned about and that we can help them with.

[NURSING REPORT BASICS] Great review of taking and giving report and how to deal with the RN's whom you are giving report

M

MJ

[NURSING REPORT BASICS] Been a nurse in SNF for 2 years and would like to go eventually to Med Surg. Giving and receiving report is my weakness since english is not my first language. This course help me to be more calm and not take things personally.

SR

Sandrine Ribeau

[NURSING REPORT BASICS] That was so helpful! I am on day#2 as a new grad on a med-surg floor and I feel like I don't understand anything of what's going on for the pool of patients assigned to my preceptor. I can now see how I can better prepare myself before getting handoff reports with my nurse. I like how you focus on what is crucial. We can so easily get lost into the details. Thank you :)
