Question for OR RN's who work 7a-3p

Published

I'm trying to design my 4-hour shift to be most compatible with preferred break times of staff. I am thinking 09:30-13:30.

At what times do you prefer to take your morning break and lunch break?

I'd love to get a morning break around 9am and lunch around 11:30am. It rarely works out that way, but that's what would be ideal.

Depends if I'm on call & if the board isn't moving... If I'm staying, I like lunch about 1:30pm (before cafe' closes)

Otherwise, I could care less, as long as I get a break & lunch.

I think the poster meant that they are surprised that anyone would get a break AND lunch in the same day, since they are often too busy to get either one.
