@WillTweetForBSN This is such an important topic that we oftentimes forget to critically think about. Mistakes happen so it is very important for EVERYONE to critically think & pay attention to side effects/contraindications of all medications & make clinical judgements based on that. #NR4031218
@AlaynaTousigna1 Alayna, thanks for posting this! It is so important for our patients to be educated on brain health. Often times, we educate our patients but do not take it into consideration for us! Being active is important & with our busy schedules, we often forget about self-care. #NR4031218
@rebecca66680218 Awesome! It is so vital for nurses to know about medications. Mental health is just as important as all other types of health. It is important for patients to be educated on antidepressant medications as well. #NR4031218
@hkclark94 I love this! It is so important to be empathetic and judgment-free as a nurse. Wasting time being judgemental gets in the way of providing adequate care and advocating for the patient. It is SO important to get rid of prejudices. #NR4031218

Prioritization is key. Working in the hospital can be intense but we need to be able to focus through the chaos. We should focus on perfecting our performance and being open to change. Learn from others who have been in the job role for a while. #NR4031218

It is very important for patients with limited English proficiency to receive the same care as someone who is proficient in English. We, as nurses, need to be advocates for our patients and get them the correct care regardless of the language that they speak. #NR4031218
