@rayjemmmm: Not a reminder to do less, but a reminder to take care of YOU, too. 🤎 You spend so much time caring for others. Never forget that you deserve care, too. Taking care of yourself doesn’t make you less dedicated. A well-cared-for nurse can better care for their patients. 🩺✨ #nurse #nurselife #nursetok #healthcareworker #ornurse
And take your lunch out of the hospital. Life isn’t just work, enjoy a meal outside of work.

They are not your family. They do not care if you die. They will not reward you for yourself sacrifice. Take your breaks. Take your vacation and do not pick up an additional shift unless you really want to.

Idk :
I’m a cna. If I take a break that means someone didn’t get showered, rounds weren’t done, and we’ll be late to lunch. If we take care of ourselves someone’s needs get neglected

Heather Reid :
It took me many years, but finally realized it’s just not worth it. I go outside and take me a full 30. No one to interrupt, no one to try and steal my food (work LTC), just quiet. It’s coming out of my check anyways.

I can't take lunch if that family and patient need me. Sometimes we are the only kindness they will experience here. Sad

Remind my nurses this daily when I see them stressed. Girl you are number to them. Unless it is death. Slow down, breathe, drink that water. This is a low risk infusion center. Nobody is coding. My spot is the secret break spot

Thank you! I felt this way all weekend. I had a really demanding assignment. I’m not complaining, I’m grateful to have a job, but being burned out isn’t okay. My boss just asked if I could pick up another shift tonight, and I said no!
