Hello everyone,
I'm sure this topic has been dragged through the dirt several times, but I needed to know from those of you who may have decided to switch to night shift.
My situation is this.
I am a new grad, about 3 weeks out of orientation. I helped cover a night shift last week. Despite the terrible strain it put on my sleep schedule, I liked it. After recouperating, I'm still doing so even today as you can see from my post time, I feel that it may suit me better than days.
My most recent day shift after this night shift I worked was horrible. Doctors throwing demands my way, interruptions to my organization, etc. I felt so out of whack I wanted to leave the floor crying and never come back.
I realize I'm a new grad and this is my time to learn, but perhaps I could learn more smoothly on nights.
Can anyone give me any thoughts or advice on what they believe night shift could do for me?
Thank you and have a great day,
JacelRN
