“Saw these quotes on a nursing web site and had to share some. I’m sorry, honey. Mommy is a nurse, so we only go to a doctor if we’re dying. I’ve come to the realization that I’ll touch anything as long as I have gloves on. If I collapse at work, here is the list of doctors I don’t want working on me. Some people think that doctors and nurses can put scrambled eggs back in the shell. Tried to go a whole day without talking about bowels. !FAILED!. The only chance I got to sit down today was on the toilet. A new nurse gets scared when a doctor yells. An old nurse yells back. And my favorite… Yes, I charted that I charted what I previously charted. Wait, hold on I have to chart that I told you about my charting.”.

A Letter to the Baby Nurse
Right now, there is a baby nurse who is searching online and deep inside for an answer. There is a brand new member of the profession who is questioning her calling. There is a newly-minted graduate who wonders how school seemed to teach her everything and nothing all at the same time. And there is a greener-than-grass new hire who is praying that she doesn’t kill somebody at work tomorrow, and wonders if she already did yesterday. Dearest baby nurse, don’t let this scary new world drag you down. You’re going to have moments when you are sitting on a toilet seat for far too long, probably for the first time in your entire shift, and question why you even decided to become a nurse in the first place. That’s okay.


You’re going to have days — many of them — when you plop down in your car after leaving work two hours later than anticipated. You’re going to turn off the radio. And you’re going to roll down the windows, you’re going to cry the most painful and ugly cry. That’s okay. You’re going to have shifts where your head is spinning and your hands are shaking and your brain is thinking faster than your fingers can type. That’s okay. You’re going to have moments when you clean more bodily fluids in one 12-hour day than an average person might in a lifetime. You’re going to feel that — sometimes — you’re the only person on the entire unit, because everyone around you is just as busy as you are. That’s okay.
