Have you ever heard the saying "nurses eat their young"? This blog spot is for new nurses from not so new nurses who want to help you be the best! I have been in nursing for 25 years. Only yesterday I was 105 pounds wearing my white dress, white stockings , white leather shoes and last but not least my nursing cap.
It seems there is a small group of people within the hospital that like to make life tough for new nurses. I remember an older nursing assistant who would always say" that is not my job". Out of respect, fear, and intimidation I let her get by with it for about 4 months. She was never nice or helpful to me...until 10 years later when I became her unit manager :) The tables had turned and not in her favor.
You may think you will be a rookie forever...but you won't! Time flies by. Enjoy your career and come back often!
