Chronicals of a Burntout ICU Nurse

Good afternoon, I am so sorry that I did not blog yesterday, I was totally slumming. I am on vacation until May 9, 2011 and it feels great. I have been brainstorming on new ways to create a new system to help you prevent and identify signs and systems of burnout. Please feel free to contact me on my website @ www.mytotalnurse.com.for further assistance.

Thank you,

Chronicals of a Burntout ICU Nurse

Good afternoon, today is Thursday April 28, 2011, I am off today and relaxing. The day off for a Nurse means not taking care of patients, however we still take care of our families. Today I would like to introduce my Dear Nancy Column, here you can ask questions, vent or just speak about anything you would like to. I will start the question off for you.

Dear Nancy Nurse: How do I know that I am a burnout professional?
Nancy Nurse: You know you are a burnout nurse when you call in slick instead of sick. You know you are a burnout nurse when you are on vacation and you are planning for your next. You know you are a burnout nurse when you feel like going to work is a punishment instead of enjoyment.

I will chat with you later

Chronicals of a Burntout ICU Nurse

Today is Wednesday April 27, 2011. I had a wonderful day in the life of a Burnout ICU Nurse. Today I worked in an outpatient Cardiac Cath Lab. The environment is an excellent place to deliver a high quality of nursing care. I enjoy working outpatient because care that is delivered is pure without administrators dictating the care. Outpatient Nursing is the area where you can provide excellent patient care, a large amount of patient teaching and you can immediately see your results. The patients in the outpatient setting are so appreciative and always call back with great thanks. I love outpatient nursing.

Remember: WE ARE THE CHANGE WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR
