Confidence, older nurses, and memory helps
Hello,
It does seem to take courage for those of us in our 40s-50s to get out there and start (or restart) something new. I myself have been a stay at home mom for quite a few years...I am glad I did it but that position can breed low confidence if we are not careful.
Regarding "age"--what do folks do to compensate for memory problems which seem to be typical?
When I worked on a med surg. floor in the way past, there was not always time to write everything down. Also, it was not cool to write down the pt.'s info (say on a clipboard) and take the chance of leaving said notes in another patient's room!!

Supposedly 8 out of 10 people suffer from hemorrhoids. Does that mean that the other 2 people enjoy them???:confused:
