Questions from the Incredible Health Nurse Community

  • What is your best tip for dealing with a stressful situation at work?
  • How do you deal with veteran nurses and doctors who look down, and degrade new grad nurses? Some of them are a little older so it’s hard for me to defend myself.
  • I’m 43 and want a new career. Recently I was accepted into a 24 month RN program. Am I too old to start a nursing career?
  • What exactly is the role of a nursing union?
  • How do I make myself more marketable?
  • I want to become a nurse manager in the future. Are there any books or resources I can read to help me learn?
