Shift Swap

Changed to evening shift from night shift I did. Yep. Imagine being a nurse in a hospital you like, with coworkers you like and in a shift you like. Imagine greeting patients during the afternoon to care for them instead of in the middle of the night when they bitch you out for waking them up. Imagine being able to be proactive with their care, talk to them, teach them, meet their families and actually build a relationship with them. Imagine seeing your patients awake and progress from sickness to health. Imagine patients that are able to describe their thoughts, feelings, goals and life with you... Instead of existing as a nurse on night shift... Watching your patients sleep... And honestly hoping to god you don't walk in and they are blue (not breathing or without a pulse). It is a great feeling and a great much needed change.
