| Typical Routine and Tips for New Nurse Hello, I graduated nursing school in 2003 and looked high and low for a sample routine of the typical nurse's day! Later, I went back and wrote one myself. Hope this helps (the typical routine is located at the end of the general tips). Tips for Your First Year as a Nurse - Associated Content Good luck everyone in your new career! |

| Re: Typical Routine and Tips for New Nurse How great is that! I've been in nursing for 30+ years and I couldn't explain it as well as you have. I want to share what you wrote with all our new grads this summer -- is there someplace where I can get the appropriate permission to have it reprinted? You go girl! --p  |

| Re: Typical Routine and Tips for New Nurse i have been a nurse for 30 yrs and i enjoyed and agreed with all said one thing i would add when i make rounds the first thing i note if my iv bags are running low (they will not usually pass tat on in report) and jot down about what time i can expct them to run out with a little cushion example if there is 150 left in a 100 per hr bag at 8 i plan to hang the new bag with my 9 o clock meds families freak ot when the bags get low and this eases thier peace of mind. Also I try to comment on things the pt has in the room card flowers who sent them etc it helps you get to personalize the pt even the more difficult ones |
