Yeah, Im trying to find the best shoes that work for me. I feel great for the majority of my shift. But when there is about two hours left, my feet begin to kill me! Thanks for all the replies!

Thank you everyone! So far I have done everything listed, and the days go by pretty fast. I make sure to take ALL of my breaks and drink lots of fluids through out the day, which has helped! Thanks again for the advice everyone!

Thank you all so much for the advice! I start next week so I am going to try all these tips and find what works best for me. Thanks again!

I start working next week in the hospital. I will be working full time, days as a Nursing Assistant and also going to school to finish my prerequisites for the Nursing Program. I have never worked a 12 hour shift , the school semester doesn't start back up until next month so I have a little time to adjust, but does anyone have any tips on what I can expect on a 12 hour shift? Ive read the importance to eat breakfast, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Thank you!

Sorry to hear that, some extra practice and I'm sure you will pass. I found YouTube videos helpful (if they do the skills right) practice on friends and say the steps as you are doing them. Good luck!
