This is a total bragging thread, so depart now if that will annoy you. :)
I started my informatics spot a month ago and my boss's big concern was that the nurses would see me as a hindrance rather than a help.
Well, ystdy in a meeting the subject of adding computer workstations came up. The preferred, cheapest plan was to whittle away at the nurses' station. Before anyone else said anything, I said, "The nurses can't give up any space. They're already too cramped."
Well, the nurse manager came to me today to tell me that she appreciated how supportive I was of the nurses, and that finally it feels like there' someone out there who understands. I told that it's because I am a nurse. She answered, "I know, but ift feels like you get it."
