Two 16 hour days. Covid is getting bad again at the hospital. I am exhausted and can’t sleep. I am getting stage 2 pressure ulcers on the bridge of my nose from my N95 again. My hands are dry, angry and hurt. I am fried. Burned out. Exhausted. Wear. A. Fucking. Mask. #CovidRN

Respect and hugs to you Jennifer. Do you think small pieces of hydrogel might work on your nose to heal and prevent further pressure ulcers?

I have to be careful because the mask needs to be sealed to your face and the nose is the key adjustment point

Please do meticulous skin care. My daughter got a cellulitis from her N95 mask and ended up with 6 days in-patient IV abx to get it under control. Take care of yourself 🙏😷❤

Well done for doing your job, for which you will get paid handsomely no doubt?
I do wonder whether there are any doctors nurses out there working for free.
In my view, it's only those that are working for free that can be complaining. These lot get paid & then go on like this.
