really sad

[MadpeysRN]

When I have a really crappy shift and not had a chance for even a sip of water till I leave and have to give report to a nurse that picks my report apart and acts like I did nothing my whole shift. I try VERY hard to not pass anything on to the next shift. Nor do I ever make the previous shift feel bad if they didn't get everything done. I say don't worry about it! I'll take care of it! Or No big deal with an upbeat smile. But last night was bad, and there are always a couple of nurses on my floor notorious for being hateful and rude during report. I cringe every time I see that they are getting one of my pts when my shift is over.

You know what, OP.....you gave it your best, did what you could, your patients are exactly where they are supposed to be when you leave.

As for the grumpy hand off.....thankfully, those nurses are NOT the ones you have to spend any amount of time with other than report.

A 24 hour position is like that....cause patient's change, and MD's order stuff.....that is why they are called patients, and that we work in an acute care facility........ and that we all have shifts--cause apparently your co-workers missed the memo that states everyone needs to take care of patients--not just one nurse, not just one shift.
