even though today has not started, and i do not know what the day will bring, today, i don't want to be a nurse. i want to cuddle back down into my bed, and be just me, lol.
huggggggssssssss There are times when I wonder Why I became a nurse Some days are so trying I don’t want to be a nurse anymore Patients yelling at staff Staff yelling at other staff Doctors not helping my patient The way I know my patient needs helped Family members of the ill Underfoot and irritating Making my patient sicker Because they hover over the patient Not letting them get the rest they need On these days, nothing goes right It only goes wrong Pharmacy sends the wrong medications Or none at all And becomes agitated with me when I call Housekeeping takes forever To clean the room I need for my new patient And the food in the cafeteria is old Or I didn’t even make it to the cafeteria And that stat lab I’m still waiting on The bath basin spills The colostomy bag pops off The foley cath bag leaks The Alzheimer patient kicks me in the knee The IV comes loose And the patient bleeds on my pants Yes, it all goes wrong On these days I don’t want to be a nurse |

And everybody wonders why " we" have a nusring shortage, I am only a CNA and I and told all the time , " you are a special person for being able to do this job" I think EVERYBODY in the medical field can relate to you.

I can relate as well. I am a CNA with QMAP and phlebotomy. Expired tubes or bad ones are the worst when you get the scared patient! When you get that one patient who tells you they love you and you take such good care of them it makes it sooooo worth it. It will get better!

There are many days when you ask yourself, "TALL ME AGAIN WHY I WANTED TO BE A NURSE??????"..................and then one day there's ONE patient - perhaps the parents' face upon the birth of their baby, or a little elderly lady who will look at you with warm, glistening eyes and say a simple, "Thank you my dear",..........and THAT, my friend, is what makes our profession worth while.............
Just hang in there..........and it will come back to you, because it is a BEAUTIFUL part of WHO YOU are.......
( I've always told my daughter she could be ANYTHING SHE WANTED TO BE - except for a nurse or a prostitute.............she's chosen to be a physician of Naturopathic Medicine........ - guess she's been around Medicine so long part of it has also become a part of who SHE IS as well.........take care...) |

You're welcome Seena--------you VERY obviously have the most vital ingredient it requires to be a VERY GOOD NURSE - heart --------------Keep hanging in there my newly found friend.....
..........and NEVER forget the "REMEMBER WHENS........." that make your relatives turn the most interesting shade of green...   I still love to throw out an anonymous (of course) 'war story" periodically, especially during a meal...----I may be disabled and have not been able to work for the past 5 1/2 years, but I can STILL make my Mama's face turn green!!! You've gotta laugh............
