what does it take to be a charge nurse?
is it hard? is it easy? how do you become one?
it is a challenge aside from being a nurse, you start to step into the leadership role more and understand more about what managements wants and why the patient is still there and if they can be discharged.
you do step aside from bedside nursing and your mindset changes into how to maintain and function your staff and unit whenever things occur and how you can solve or be of an extra assistance.
I became a charge nurse within a year into nurse by starting off as a new grade, I learned more, because I looked over all the floor and different conditions. good knowledge base to have. always take the oppurtunity when it arises. overall it is a good way to gain experience if you are into leadership.
