Where I work and I imagine where all nurses work, and any other place I have ever worked Cheap Jerseys , it's like tip toeing through a land mine where people's emotions erupt and detonate at strange and unpredictable times.
Women aren't easy to work with and women who lack introspection are even worse.
I've been thinking about this! It seems that each department of the hospital has their pet obsession.
One unit of the hospital is obsessed with bladder emptying.
In another, the nurses are obsessed by paper work, and the Kardex in particular, a sheet of paper which itemizes a patient's orders and tests. If the Kardex is not filled out Wholesale Soccer Hats , these nurses believe the patient did not receive good patient care, when in reality, I may be choosing to actually talk with the patient and her family, or give her a massage or hold her hand in lieu of filling out a worthless piece of paper.
Some nurses on my unit are obsessed by the number of visitors permitted in a patient's room.
One nurse went so far as to come in my patient's room just as she was about to deliver a baby. She admonished the family for having too many people in the room Wholesale Soccer Hoodies , who were extra support for her as she actually went through natural childbirth on up to 20 units of Pitocin.
This woman deserved a metal of honor, not a tongue lashing as she was embarking on such a profound experience!
One woman nurse mid-wife says that every pregnant patient's baby is a stargazer, meaning the baby is facing up instead of facing down, the preferred position for delivering a baby.
This same mid-wife is obsessed by the amount of stool in a patient's rectum.
One of my patients was recently admitted to the hospital for acute constipation.
She received so many enemas and laxatives that I am amazed she didn't poop a canon ball into the next county!
Are Gastroenterologists obsessed by Bowel Movements?
Are Urologists obsessed by the color and amount of urine?
Are Hematologists obsessed by the color of blood?
In any event, one mid-wife is particularly quirky about straight cathing a patient after she delivers her baby and before we transfer her to the Post Partum unit because if we don't Wholesale Soccer Jerseys , then the nurses on that unit get quirky about the amount of urine in that patient's bladder, which is their pet eccentricity.
Another mid-wife is downright strange about giving Ephedrine after every epidural placement.
Another uses so many pillows to support a patient in a side lying position that there is a virtual pillow shortage at the end of her twelve hour shift.
Recently we did a Customer Service presentation for the entire staff of Labor and Delivery.
Our purpose in doing this presentation was to lift the morale of the staff and to give them Customer Service hours in the process.
Seems logical to me to teach administrative staff Emotional Intelligence Skills so we don't have to work so hard in making everyone feel good!
A real control freak across the hallway from where we were giving the presentation gave us attitude during our Customer Service rehearsals.
She came in where we were rehearsing and told us to turn down our music.
She'd abruptly shut the door where we were working out our skits.
This woman has a way of plummeting vibrational energy fields to the lowest possible ebb.
The night we gave our performance to thirty employees, we were dancing and singing. Suddenly I saw this woman come bursting through the back door and walk straight towards me.
She got right in my face and for the first time, I really saw her Wholesale Hats , line for line complete with downturned mouth and furrowed brow.
"Turn down the music," she hissed.
"No," I said.
She grabbed my name badge which is supported by one of those movable threads. She glared at it, let it snap back to my chest Wholesale Hoodies , turned around and stomped out.
We continued with our performance, but I felt kind of shaken up by her bad vibes!
The audience thought she was part of the skit to demonstrate how not to act with your customers!
The land mine extends to doctors and all of their pet idiosyncrasies.
Suffice to say, learning how to navigate gently through these explosive personalities takes much effort!
This is the #1 leading cause of burnout in my profession, not patient care.
I chalk up all of these obsessive compulsive behaviors to a provincial mindset.
Nothing exists outside of the hospital or the town where we all live for most of these people.
So I wish them well.
They teach me how to free my mind for more enlightened pursuits and aspirations.
Real Customer Service begins with change from within mind Wholesale Shirts , body and spirit.
Several months after our Customer Service presentation, staff morale is back to ground zero.
And give her a front row seat!
Because if it wasn't for her, I never would have written this article!!
