ICU ka “Real-Time” Anubhav (Dhak-Dhak Style)

“Bhaiyo, nursing kitabon mein padhna ek taraf hai aur ICU mein ventilator ki ‘BEEP’ sunte waqt patient ko handle karna ek taraf. Maine apni MSc Nursing aur Nursing Officer ki duty ke dauran ye sikha hai ki jab emergency aati hai, toh dimaag kitna tez chalna chahiye. Is post mein maine wahi practical knowledge dali hai jo maine ward mein mareezon ki seva karte waqt khud mehsoos ki hai. Ye mera asli tajurba hai jo aapko kahin aur nahi milega.”

Bexyhub ki “Digital Nursing” Kranti (Visionary Style)

“Maine Bexyhub sirf isliye nahi banaya ki bas notes dalta rahoon, balki main nursing education ko badalna chahta hoon. Ek ICU specialist hone ke nate mera maqsad hai ki har student ko wo premium jankari mile jo bade-bade coaching centres mein milti hai. Ye 125 posts meri raaton ki neend aur din ki mehnat ka nateeja hain. Ise maine ekdum human-made rakha hai taaki aapko padhne mein maza aaye aur samajh mein bhi baithe.”

Medical Ethics aur Trust (Imandari Style)

“Medical field mein ‘Trust’ sabse badi cheez hoti hai. Ek Nursing Officer hone ke nate meri zimmedari hai ki main aapko galat jankari na doon. Is post ka har ek word maine khud verify kiya hai aur apne clinical practice ke hisaab se likha hai. Jab aap Bexyhub par padhte hain, toh aap sirf content nahi padh rahe, balki ek qualified professional (MSc Nursing) ke tajurbe se seekh rahe hain. Ye meri apni mehnat hai aur mujhe is par garv hai.”
