I am the ube for a busy med-surg floor for about 6 months any other UBE's out there who has some good teaching ideas? I don't have my masters just BSN with a 17 years of expierence. I have been a resource coordinator for several years and still am on a part-time basis. I like the UBE postion but just need some help in getting started. Our floor has not had one in many years so there is no guidelines to follow. Any ideas and resource sites would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
