1. 24hr shifts?

   I love 24s but you have to discipline yourself to eat right, and rest. I also is possible like to work some tai chi, or Qi gong meditation into my down time. Helps in several levels.

2. My New Life as a Transport Nurse

   mlowens replied to BNE103's topic in Flight

   I'm an old RT who went to nursing school at age 50. I did neo transport as an RT and neo peds as a nurse. Peds was hard to adapt to. My first DKA and seizure kid was scary. My first RSI was terrifying. I love the work though.

   I've been a NICU nurse for over three years. The other staff, babies, and parents have responded positively. Don't underestimate the value of a male showing a new dad how to care for his baby.
