Hi all,
I need some advice from more experienced nurses. I have been a nurse for 14 months now. I would like to know how some of you handle having multiple things to do at the same time while having an admit to get to amongst other things. I feel like I am going crazy some times and get so overwhelmed that I cannot think straight. I notice that some of the other nurses are able to just handle things in stride and not let it get to them. I have asked other nurses how they deal with it and the answers I get are that they can only be in one place at a time and that they are doing the best they can. I run around like a maniac all evening and still get out of work late.
Thanks to all who reply. Any advice is appreciated.
