Not talking about the generic protect your back stuff from nursing school orientation. Mine was from a night shift nurse who told me during my preceptor weeks If a patient tells you they feel weird or think they're about to die drop whatever paperwork you're doing and look at them immediately. Saved me twice already when vital signs were technically fine on paper right before the floor fell out. Curious what tips from senior nurses actually stuck with you long term.   submitted by   /u/pushparaj6 [link]   [comments]
