Job Shadowing

Are you doing this on your own time? Do you have a reason to hide the shadowing from your nurse manager? I think it is the respectful thing to do...tell your nurse manager.

Hi, yes I am doing it on my own time. I'm not hiding anything but I also don't want her to get nervous that I'm leaving soon. What if I shadow and all of these other floors do not compare and then I've created a situation where my nurse manager thinks I am going to leave soon? I don't want anyone to get riled up for nothing, you know?

I wouldnt say anything unless theres a good chance your manager would find out.

uh no, don't say anything. do not say anything until you have your official start date at your next job.

"just to let you know, i'm shadowing another nurse in X department =/sounds like: i'm looking for another job

why not shadow at a different facility? Most of the hospitals in my area allow RN's and soon-to-be new grads shadow before even applying.

I want to stay in my facility. I work at one of the best hospitals in the world.

This is exactly what I thought! Thanks!
