how do you organize your day

A good brain helps..see what other nurses use then adapt your own espically going to different units.

Ask someone on the unit your on, most units will have "adopted" one that they have avaliable for anyone to use, not that everyone does. And, you can ask anyone and EVERYone you work with for their "cheat" sheets. that is exaclty what i did. you know what you can do to? this site is amazing, do a search on this site specifically and word it a few different ways, there are a bunch of sheets others have posted. you work with a few on different days and you will find what works for you and eventually use one of theirs or make your own out of them all.

Adventurehunter, I would be more than happy to send you my "brain" if you'd like to get me your email. I am on a M/S unit right now. The sheet I use is a legal size sheet that accommodates 5 patients.

LuvofNursing - Can you send me your worksheet too? I have been reading allnurses.com for about 3 years now (during nursing school) but this is my first post. I just started a new job (my first real nursing job) in Med/Surg and really need to get my day organized. How can I send you my email addy?
