acantrell 12 Posts Sep 26, 2013 Hello! I am a new nurse and I am having trouble with time management, remembering to complete some tasks (and I write them down). If you could offer some advice on how to develop a system that will help me, please share! Thank you!

I laminated the list and then use a dry erase marker to check of each item as I complete it. It worked well for me until I got everything memorized and created a system. I hope you find something that works for you.Good luck,Leesha
