[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] I appreciated the well rounded nature of the course- from nursing skills, etc. to self care and sleeping. I also really appreciated including other members of the care team and what they do, and how to be respectful (cool vs. not cool- nurses are notoriously NOT cool to environmental services, thanks for mentioning our hard working co-workers.) I really enjoyed the section on providers and the interviews with APP and PT. The structure of the hospital is hard to understand, this course really helped. The communication tips are excellent and very helpful. This course lays out "a day in the life" of what a real nursing shift in a hospital looks like, which helps me feel significantly less lost as a new nurse new to hospital care. The time management, patient flow etc., are super helpful and practical. Including specific examples (like the patient who refuses therapy and meals, or the ICU nurse who copies previous documentation) help make the concepts you teach tangible, and I personally can better retain information that is attached to a story. Great course, thank you.

Hi Kati- I am a new grad nurse on a neuro floor and I took your Neuro Wise course and the New Nurse Masterclass. I have never worked in acute care before, and your courses have been extremely helpful to explain the flow/day in the life of acute care nursing and how a hospital works. The neuro course has been spot on in covering the disease processes, procedures, diagnostics, labs etc. that are the norm for my unit, and which are NOT covered in nursing school. As a brand new nurse, your courses feel like having a preceptor come along side and teach me all the things I need to know, and have helped me feel not so lost and overwhelmed. Thank you for great courses and excellent content.

The Master RN class helped me navigate through my 1st 6 months as a nurse who works on the ortho/med surg floor. I gained valuable insight and utilized many of the tips from the course. I recommend it to anyone who is just starting out as a new nurse. I plan to check out other courses as I feel the content is fully relatable.

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] When asked what resonated most in the course, an anonymous user said: Self-care and the security of not doubting your own intuition with a patient, and not to feel bad about escalating something due to it.

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] I used this course in conjunction with my new grad RN orientation program... there were definitely some challenging days at the hospital, but I was able to ground myself and ease the stress and anxiety by reviewing/replaying certain segments. How to navigate relationships with patients, coworkers, etc., along with self-awareness and self-care tips were very beneficial. Thank you!

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] Hi Kati, I thank God that I found you and the help and encouragement you offer. This was truly an answer to prayer for me! I am learning so much in this course so far, and it has been worth every penny. The breathing techniques have been extremely helpful. I am a little over 2 months into my orientation as a new graduate nurse. Due to covid, I literally had only virtual clinicals and no internship. I was hired in a small rural hospital with only 20 beds on the med/surg unit. I was so full of anxiety, and I wanted so desperately to please everyone around me. I LOVE that you start the course talking about the mental aspects. It is so helpful to know that I'm not alone in the feelings and emotions. It is so hard working through those! The lack of clinical experience has made the experience even more challenging, but my 2 preceptors have been so helpful and gracious with me, and my manager has extended my orientation to 4 months. With your course and the help of my preceptors, I have started to really progress. My biggest struggles right now are admitting patients and starting IVs successfully. I am so grateful to you that you have so selflessly shared your own struggles and mistakes to help me and many new nurses. Thank you so much for your kindness! ~ Theresa

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] Everything, literally everything you said, I have felt or are currently feeling and... wow, just wow. You made me feel so validated in a place I thought I was alone. Thank you for relighting the fire inside in a profession like nursing that seems to distinguish it.

New Nurse Master Class empowered me with knowledge and practical skills to smooth my transition from nursing student to registered nurse. It was well worth my money and time. I used the information from this course daily in my new job as a Med Surg nurse and know I will continue to reference it as my career continues. Specifically, it helped me to build confidence, have realistic expectations for myself, prioritize healthy pre and post shift routines, manage my time better at work, understand the roles of patient care team members, and communicate assertively and intentionally with patients and coworkers. Thank you FreshRN authors and contributors for your genuine encouragement and guidance. You made a real difference in my nursing career and personal life.

Master Class has been EVERYTHING that I needed to prove that I can do this, and I deserve to be the great nurse that I know I can be (and realizing that I can give myself grace for my learning curve). Now, six months into my role as an acute rehabilitation nurse, having floated many times to med-surg, spine, and the ortho departments, I am well on my way and path of my dream nursing position. Fine-tuning my desire to search out my dream job (where ever this leads me) as an acute care hospital nurse. Not just this but, I feel as though I have great co-worker friends who absolutely love working with me, management that sees potential in me and most importantly, I have my confidence to traverse this next phase of my dream career. Thank you so very much FreshRN for being a HUGE part of my success!

Thank you so much for this, Kati. I'm a newbie nurse that just started mid October on a stepdown neuro floor. I got your new nurse course and your neuro course. It's hard devoting time to them with my 4 BSN courses too but every once in a while, I spend some time on the course and it's really helpful. Thanks for all that you do.

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] I am so glad that I purchased this course! As a new grad in the cardiac ICU, so many new things are being thrown at me and all of this info was so helpful. I feel less overwhelmed.

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] Exceeded expectations! Specific, realistic, non-generic strategies. Empowering!

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] I’m barely a couple modules into this class but it’s like you wrote down all the thoughts going through my mind! I’m a new grad in the ICU and this class is already helping me so much with accepting that this is a process and I will get there!

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] I am a new grad starting in the cardiac ICU and I was very nervous to start my job, but I have been going through your new grad course and I already feel so much better. Thank you so much!!!

[NEW NURSE MASTER CLASS] The new grad course helped me understand the structure of a nursing unit. I am a foreign nurse that graduated in 1998. In 2018 I passed the NCLEX. 2019 I worked in the hospital and purchased the new graduate course. It helped me understand better how things work.

I purchased Master Class and absolutely enjoyed all the content. I was looking to acquire more confidence in my nursing ability and skills. I was not disappointed in the least working through the invaluable material presented. Since finishing, I feel much more confident as a great nurse and know when and how to give myself grace and to utilize my resources and newfound knowledge to keep my patients safe feeling well cared for, staying emotionally balanced with self-care, to support and be emotionally balance working with all co-workers and health professionals. Lastly, I have an even greater drive to learn more from FreshRN to continue on my journey.
