The “chill charge” is the real hero.

[@kansaspeach7727]

Most definitely! Your chill game has to be tough. Will get things done and people will come to work. ❤

@@kansaspeach7727 if the “chill charge” tries to contact me on a day off to pick up a shift, I even consider answering the text 🤣🙌🏻

[@NurseBlake]

TOTALLY!!!! haha

[@fringes475]

No question about it especially with everyone already on the edge; burned-out, stressed-out, frustrated and anxieties are through the roof. I provide Filipino food too when I'm charge. Not all of us likes pizza. 🙂

Lunch? What does “take a lunch” mean? Is that when you run to the cafeteria to grab some food so you can stash it at the nurses station and then take your first bite 3 hours later?

[@fringes475]

I will pick up shifts depending on who's charge that day. You forgot about the "paranoid charge" who is no help at all and just pessimistic; "dementia charge" who always forget to do things and is always wandering the hallways-they need to retire; "ADD charge" who needs to stop drinking caffeine and energy drinks; my favorite is the "foodie charge" who is always hungry, brings food for everyone and is always wondering what to order for food. 😄

[@sweetkandy2606]

You always check for who is in charge before you pick up a shift and for what days to sign up for call. ALWAYS!!

The bossy ones are charge and they make the whole world know it making it toxic The chill ones make the shift bearable and don’t forget where they started The lazy ones are not involved but make everyone do the work The new ones adjust fine that’s where they find their happy medium The busy one needs help delegating its okay to ask your team for help The can you pick up one I always feel for so I pick up when I can

[@quaterriawilliams5717]

Thats so true. I started from the very bottom. Companion to HHA/PCT/CNA to Medical Assistant to LPN to nurse. I don't forget how hard I had to work as a PCT, thats why I'm the chill one. Their job is hard enough they don't need the added stress.

[@kagyihe]

I agree!

[@Dausypoo]

am I the only one where "charge nurse" merely meant you were a regular floor nurse with 6-8 patients like everybody else but you had to decide who got the next admit and make the assignments for the next shift and that was like the extent of your powers?

Yep that’s me! The one with a full assignment and trying to keep the sinking ship afloat.

[@katieoberst490]

I'm a patient in a nursing home, and oh my GOD, no one work weekends during the winter here in MI!!! For me, it only really matters on Saturday because when the nursing home is short staffed, I usually don't get my shower on one of my shower days, so I have to wait until Wednesday, which makes me feel gross. So, I feel the frustration of the "Can you pick up" charge. It's even worse when people are just no show, so you have to get people in ASAP after the shift has started. I'm sure that happens in hospitals too.
