Seasoned nurses really affecting my self esteem as a newer nurse..need to vent?
Learn from us crusty old bats....we were where you are now decades ago.... learn from your deficiencies, I always took a corrective action on my part as a younger nurse as a teaching moment........you c,an be a better nurse, learning something from an experienced nurse, my 46.5 years as a RN, makes it more than one. Rodeo nurses as me have rode out..... you will be a wonderful nurse, if you do not take our experience defensive.... You can do this, as some of us v" crusty ole bats". Need some relief, and we need you younger nurses Best Wishes Sally
