I havent gotten to the point where i tell my co-workers im going to go pretend to be a smoker now..and i will step off the floor... usually outsde and just breath the freah air for about five minutes....i do this about twice a night...especially if we are running wild...i need my sanity just as much as the rest of them...

I do, always have even if it was peaceful....its only natural...we put so much of ourselves into these people even though we do not know them..every time one dies we lose that little peice our life that went into them...and we mourn for the unique individual that was lost to us...

I come in when I am scheduled...I will not subject my pt's to my communicable illnesses...I do this because I DO care...I come in OT if I want to or need the money....if i burn myself out i will not be able to care for my patients effectively....my facility is short ...they always will be short because they treat their staff like uneducated children, instead of capable skilled adults who are not only quite proficient at taking care of them selves but others as well...so of course they will attract uneducated unskilled workers who have no work ethics to speak of even when they decide to come in....
