1. Gossip & confiding in the wrong people
a. Have a heavy heart? Call someone outside the unit.
2. Workplace Politics
a. Dealing with a Jezebel Bully who is not authorized but in control of everything? Look to transfer if the manager is bowing to their requests as well.
b. Never take sides, gather the full story of the situation.
c. Don't be afraid to speak up and still keep it professional.
3 Anger
a. Have a bad temper? Get to the root of your issue by educating yourself on how to handle triggers. Watch YouTube videos and get counseling.
b. I noticed most of my temper flares had a lot to do with miscommunication and misunderstandings (he say, she say).
c. Ask questions and communicate efficiently, don't stop talking to someone based upon someone else conclusion about that person. You never know who you will need down the road.
d. I lost alot of opportunities and relationships because of the spirit of rage and anger, mending those bridges were not easy and some remained broken. Make sure you analyze first before you get upset or listen to someone's version of what went wrong.
4. Honor and Loyalty
a. It's important to go the extra mile and show those who are looking out for you that you appreciate them. Wherever you have favor, make sure you keep that door open.
b. Honesty and loyalty is very important in working in dialysis. Always be truthful, you don't want word to spread that you have done something crazy.
5. Not Always being really professional
a. Honestly it is not professional to have your patients as your Facebook friends, because if they become your enemy, they can discuss everything they have seen on your profile and possibly get you fired....depending on the type of personality you are dealing with. NO SHADE to the patient but I have seen this happen.

1. Put on all of your patients blood pressure cuffs on first and press the button for a standing b/p. Starting with the patient who will get on first. While these patients are all standing getting their b/p taken by the machine, you will go back to the first one and start taking their vitals and stick them and put them on. Put 2-3 important weight (vitals) things in their chart and come back to it later (only if that is possible).
2. After you stick your first pt, you should start their TX on the machine and move to the next.
3. After you finish your last pt, you need to go back to that first pt and finish that chart and anything else you have~~

1. Lazy/unhelpful *A tech asks for help during turnover and is denied for phony reasons. 2. Evil Nurses/Nurses that lie *Patients tell those nurses to get away from them. *Usurp Authority to suit their agenda. 3. Shady Nurses *Asking techs to push meds they aren't authorized to do. 4. Bullying others *Won't give you your space. *Looking for any way to get you fired.
1. Unprofessional/Patient Care/Conduct Rude to patients, evil, bad attitude, the area/section is a mess.
2. Leaving Patients Charts Unfinished. No signature on care is done for the patient.
3. Suddenly disappearing off of the floor. Going places and doing things without telling anyone.
4. Bullying nurses. Techs pressuring new and foreign nurses into doing wrong to others.

One of my favorite YouTubers went live tonight through Spreaker and I decided to check it out. I love it and will now be using it to record my dialysis teachings. Also, I apologize for the many notifications...I have had issues going Live on YouTube the other day.
