What do you like least about your work as registered nurses.?

#nursing #healthcare #medicine #registered-nurses #military #nurse

Thank you comment icon There are a few things that I find challenging about being a registered nurse. One is the long hours and demanding schedule. Nurses often work long shifts, and they may have to work nights, weekends, and holidays. This can be difficult to balance with family and personal life. Another challenge is the emotional toll that can come with caring for patients who are sick or dying. It can be emotionally draining to see patients suffer and to have to support their families through difficult times. However, despite these challenges, I find great satisfaction in helping patients and their families through difficult times and seeing them recover. Baraka Michael

Baraka’s Answer

First of all I like to see my patient that I attended, progressive good day after day,due to good care and management i provided to him or her.
Secondly I very interested when i attend maternity mother in a labor,because this is the i realized that every person in this earth surface have important things, no matter he or she behave. This is the time,the truly word of God come to my mind. So I'm very careful when i attend this pregnancy mother's.
Thirdly, increase knowledge day after day, because nursing it's a progressive education, always it's new one.

Sana’s Answer

Hmm, that's a very good question. I usually get asked what I love most about nursing. As far as what I like least, I would have to say the patient:nurse ratios. Having too many patients can impact patient safety - for example, I once had 7 patients at a time and each patient had 10-20 different medications each that had to be given within the same time window. As nurses, we do everything we can to ensure we give the right patient the right medication. However, it's still puts me at an increased risk for making an error and it becomes very daunting and discouraging when juggling multiple patients. Thankfully, this doesn't happen to me very often and there is new legislation out with proposed nurse:patient ratio limits.

To start out my response please know that I love my job an as RN. I have been practicing as a staff nurse in a NICU for 42 years. But...there are drawbacks to consider when thinking about nursing as a career. My 3 biggest topics for you to think about are that, in order to provide care to your patients, nurses need to work night shifts, weekends and holidays. These can be some of the most stressful issues facing a staff nurse. So when thinking of your future keep these three realities in mind.

Carly’s Answer

Hi Maria,

I don't like when I'm given an unsafe number of patients for the acuity and still expected to manage that load of patients. Currently, only California has laws in place restricting patient loads that I know of. I prefer to take care of 5 or less patients. I find that is usually easier for me.
