You're overflowing with awesome tips. Now you can share them and have a chance to win money! For our fifth National Nurses Week 2018 Contest we want to hear your best tip for nurses. Maybe it's perfectly suited for an experienced nurse or maybe it works best for a nurse who is just entering the workforce. Whatever the case, tell us best tip for nurses in the comments below and you could be the winner of one of two $250 Amazon.com gift cards.
Even if our panel of all-knowing udges doesn't choose you as a grand prize winner, you could still be selected as one of two runner-ups and receive a cool prize package including everything shown below and MORE!
What are you waiting for? Let us know your best tip and get that much closer to winning!
For new grads especially - No one is your friend. Do not share your personal feelings/opinions even if you consider them positive. Keep your mouth shut!
Just because a task isn't on the "task list", doesn't mean it doesn't need to be done. Take your eyes off the computer screen and look at your patient. Listen to your patient. Listen to your heart.
If you are discouraged or overwhelmed as a new nurse, find an older nurse who once was discouraged/overwhelmed too. Share your feelings and ask for advice. Find one who is willing to learn from YOU as well!
(I loved helping young nurses feel good about what they are doing, even in the most frustrating moments!)

ALWAYS FOLLOW YOUR GUT INSTINCTS
Being yelled by a MD or Surgeon is so worth saving a patient's life!
