Hi all, I am currently working as a bedside nurse in a step down neuro floor. The day/night rotation, the workload, and the lack of support has led me to feel burnout and extremely stressed. I am considering applying to outpatient family practice clinic Mom-Fri, no holidays, no weekends. Anyone out there who may have done this transition and can give me any advise? Thanks in advance!

Hello all, I have been working in a busy Neuro step down unit for a year now. I love caring for patients but feel burned out. I have been bullied by several staff nurses and feel like the culture in my unit is very toxic. I am thinking about switching into outpatient nursing and was wondering if anyone had made that transition and curious to know if it was a good or bad transition? thanks in advanced

I recently started orientation in a neurology unit which was turned into an ICU due to the Covid19 pandemic. I am now being sent to the float pool to work at a general care unit until the pandemic is over and will then resume my orientation at the neurology floor. I am a bit nervous since I only have experience with neuro patients. Any thoughts on how to prepare myself for the general care floor?

Hey all. I am part of a 6 month residency program at a level 1 trauma center. I am approaching month 5th and was told my orientation was going to be extended which was extremely discouraging. I have also been struggling with my second preceptor. I feel that she has been picking on me and makes frustrating comments about my performance in front of me, other nurses and doctors. She talks to me in a condescending manner and in front of patients. The feedback she gives me every time is very discouraging and makes me feel as if I was stupid and not fit for the environment. I have been trying extremely hard to be better and even read articles and books when I get home to educate myself. I truly want to be able to make it but I have been extremely stressed and I cry every day after work and have developed anxiety from this. Has anyone one had a similar experience or have any thoughts/advice on how to move forward?
