Hey All
Well, I finally will be starting my dream job in the SICU in the next couple weeks and I've been preparing for the content, the workload, etc. but I dont feel prepared w/ office politics.
First off, I just turned 21 and prior to nursing I did a nursing internship, CNA job, and receptionist. Beyond that I have no experience with the rules of office politics. Im sure I've been doing things okay so far because I havent had any backlash or felt like a pariah and Im very mature for my age, but still...
I really want to start off on the right track with interacting with coworkers, superiors, and techs. Any kernels of advice would be greatly appreciated. I know there is so much I need to learn! If you have any books that would be relevant to the hospital setting Im definitely interested in exploring that as well.
Thanks so much in advance :)
