What is a common mistake you make as a nurse?

Thinking that you can do everything and help everyone. You need to get a mental break every now and then. The stress of being a nurse can take a toll on you. Take time out for yourself every so often, or you will burn out quickly.

Rushing and not double checking what I’m doing. Try to slow down before administering meds that it’s ok to give and the right med/patient. Reread what you document.
