Ratchet Nightingales

This week on Ratchet Nightingales, we are switching things up! One of us plays the nurse, the other plays the patient, and things go downhill fast.

From ridiculous complaints and impossible requests to patients who know more than the medical professional, (thanks Google!), we are acting out the chaos that comes with healthcare.

Two badass NPs, zero filters, and a whole lotta attitude.

Who's going to lose their patience first-the nurse or the patient? Grab your drink of the week (Vodka Elderflower & Pear Cocktail for us) and let's get ratchet!!

Ratchet Nightingales is intended for entertainment purposes only. We are two Nps sharing our personal experiences, opinions, and questionable sense of humor.

Any patient stories are fictional or altered to protect privacy. Names, details, and identifying information are changed. Any role-playing scenarios are fictional and intended for comedy.

Our opinions are our own and do not represent our employers or any healthcare organization.

Nothing on this podcast should be considered medical, or life, advice.

We use sarcasm, dark humor, adult language, and occasional poor judgment.

If you are easily offended, you have been warned; now let's get ratchet.

Ever get report and immediately know it's going to THAT kind of shift? 😂.

This week on Ratchet Nightingales, we are talking about bad reports, missing information, questionable decisions, and all the other healthcare..and non-healthcare nonsense that makes us wonder how we are still employed.

From the things nobody bothered to mention in the report to the everyday chaos that only healthcare workers understand, we are laughing our way through it all.

Grab your drink, lower your expectations, and come get ratchet with us! 🖤😈🍷🎃

Where the scrubs are black and the humor is darker!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!! 🧙🏻‍♀️🐈‍⬛💀👻

We all do it. We tell ourselves little lies to get through the day, justify our decisions, or convince ourselves we have everything under control. From "I'll start Monday" to "I'm fine" and "just one more episode", sometimes the biggest lies are the ones we tell ourselves.

This week on Ratchet Nightingales, we are talking about the lies we tell ourselves, why we believe them, and how we manage to convince ourselves they are true. Expect plenty of laughs, brutal honesty, a little self-reflection, and probably a lot of things we shouldn't admit out loud.

Grab your drink, settle in, and get ready for another unfiltered night with your favorite ratchet nurse practitioners.

Ever have one of those shifts that makes you questions every life decision that led you to nursing? Yeah, us too.

This weeks on Ratchet Nightingales, we're talking about quitting nursing, the moments that make us want to turn in our badges, and what the hell we'd do for a living if we weren't nurses.

Do we actually have any other marketable skills, or are we stuck here forever?

Grab a drink, clock out, and get ratchet with us!

There's a difference between a red flag and just being a little ratchet...or is there? 😂 This week, we are breaking down red flags in dating, friendships, work, healthcare and everyday life and deciding which ones are legitimate warning signs-and which ones are just questionable behavior we are probably guilty of ourselves.

From the things that make you immediatly say "absolutely not" to the ones that make you think "ok, that's not a red flag...that's just ratchet", nothing is off limits.

Grab a drink, judge along with us and see if you agree. 🍷🚩What's a red flag you will never ignore?

The Ratchet Nightingales, where healthcare meets chaos.

Kristi is 51 and apparently that deserves an entire episode. 🤣🎂This week, we are celebrating Kristi's birthday Ratchet Nightingales style. We talk about turning 51, getting older when you are definitely not ready to act your age, and then- as usual- the conversation takes a few turns.

Come hang out with us for birthday laughs, random conversations, and the usual slightly innapropriate chaos.

Happy 51st Kristi!!!!! Here's to another year of questionable decisions becoming great stories. 😂🖤🎙️

One revolutionized nursing. The other terrified an entire generation of patients. This week, we are putting Florence Nightingale and Nurse Ratchet head to head.

We are talking about the real women behind modern nursing, the fictional nurse who became the poster child for everything a nurse shouldn't be, and how both became two of the most recognizable names in nursing history. Expect history, questionable behavior, random fact, and-as always- our completely ratchet commentary.

This week, the Ratchet Nightingales are asking the question we have all wondered at least once: am I the asshole?

We are diving into AITA- situations, questionable behavior, workplace drama, patient and family shenanigans and those moment where somebody definitely needs a reality check.

Who's right? Who's wrong? And who deserves the offical Ratches Nightingals asshole stamp of approval?

Grab your drink, put on your compression sock and prepare to judge right along with us.

This week on Ratchet Nightingales, we're talking about the patients we'll never forget--the funny ones, the wilds ones, the sweet ones, and the ones who left us with stories we're still telling years later.

From moments that made us laugh to the ones that genuinely stuck with us, these are the patients who became permanent nursing core memories.
