The Reality for Nurses After Patient Death - Was this TikTok Nurse Dramatic or Realistic?

I've taken care of many patients who transitioned during my shift. I've performed post mortem care more times than I can count. And not once, while I was performing that sacred care, did I NOT think "I wonder what my next admission will be". Because the reality for nurses after their patient dies is that patient death creates an open bed. And very soon you'll be getting a phone call about the new patient you should prepare for all while you need to be catching up on the care for your other patients. Recently a Nurse on TikTok posted a video sharing her experience after a patient death. She was largely mocked on the internet for being dramatic. Was it dramatic? Was the tiktok nurse exploitative?

As Covid Vaccine mandates become more popular, I have a few thoughts as to what is ethically the right move here. Covid vaccination decreases spread of illness, and will decrease likelihood of transmission to patients. However the vaccine mandate may cause more nurses to leave already short staffed units, making working conditions more unsafe. And costing more lives in the end.
