Nursing
Tips 1 - You can't possibly know "everything".
Be sure to continue to be inquisitive throughout your nursing
career. Study, ask questions, and be proactive.
Nursing
Tips 2 - Mistakes will sometimes happen. Don't beat yourself
up over it, but learn from those mistakes and get over it. Don't
let it eat at you. Rise above and keep on moving.
Nursing
Tips 3 - You can learn a lot by watching other nurses. How
do they perform compared to you? Are you at their level? Do
you feel confident with the task at hand? Learn what you don't
know. Your patients are depending on you.
Nursing
Tips 4 - RELAX! Tension will eat at you and interrupt your
ability to administer care effectively. If the stress is getting
to you, take a 5 minute break to get it together and compose
yourself.
Nursing
Tips 5 - Always keep a small notepad and pen with you. This
will save you a lot of time and headache remembering details,
patient names, prescriptions, and so on.
Nursing
Tips 6 - BE STRONG! Your patients are often nervous and
they're looking to you for strength. Exude confidence.
Nursing
Tips 7 - Don't take risks with your patience lives. If you
are uncertain about a particular procedure, ask another nurse
or doctor for assistance.
Nursing
Tips 8 - Learn to laugh. They say laughter is the best medicine.
Joke around with the doctors and get your patients laughing
(if they can). This helps everyone. And it just might keep you
from going crazy during stressful operations or procedures.
Nursing
Tips 9 - Take the time to stay on top of what is "new"
in the world of nursing. It's always changing, but there are
books, conferences and others nurses to gain information from.
Nursing
Tips 10 - Listen to your patients when they tell you what
is wrong with them. Never dismiss anything they say because
they know their bodies far better then you ever will. If they
say something is not right, then something is not right.
Nursing Tips 11 - Don't forget to take care of yourself.
While it is rewarding to help care for others, forgetting yourself
means that there is a possibility that you will be to run down
to give others the proper care you want to give them.
Nursing Tips 12 - Learn to be sensitive to other cultures.
You will see patients from all walks of life during your years
as a nurse, be ready to learn as much as you can from them.
Nursing Tips 13 - Keep yourself organized. Know where
the important things are, and if you have a tendency to forget
then keep a small notebook in your pocket with reminders.
