I am a nurse at a small hospital. Today i went in to work, expecting a good day since yesterday was good.. but instead I have 10 patients on a busy unit, and the other girl that I'm working with is a fresh graduate nurse who just got off orientation herself. She needs help with some stuff since theres things she hasnt done yet. No lunch break today and hardly time to pee. By the end of my day, i was so upet that I just wanted to cry. I had 10 of my own, plus helping the other girl out with her things, plus the wonderful family members.. Its too much to handle. My manager said that she's sorry, but sometimes these things happen and theres nothing we can do. I think that we need to find a better solution because things are getting so much worse that I am ready to leave the profession, and its a job I love very much. Am I wrong for being this upset? I only have 2 yrs experience myself so its frustrating. Any suggestions how I can talk to my boss?
