⚡Team Work Makes the Dream Work!
⚡Proactive Not Reactive!
⚡Take a Deep breath, you got this!
💥-Be Proactive Not Reactive! Be prepared ahead of time for anything! Ensure that your rooms are stocked and ready for business. Suction? Oxygen? Ambu Bags? Pulse oximetry? Cardiac monitor leads? Bp cuff? Do you know where your IV supplies are? Is the crash cart readily available? Is your glucometer ready for business?
💥-Team Work Makes the Dream Work! The Emergency Department is dynamic, if you don't work as a team, you will not succeed. Help each other and have fun at the same time. Remember, its One Team.
💥-You will not know everything, EVER, and that's ok! This specifically applies to new grads! Ask questions, lots of them! If everyone is super busy, wait until patients are stabilized, then ask away! The more you know, the more confident you'll be, and at the same time you'll realize how much you actually don't know. So, ask more questions.
💥-Charting is extremely important! HOWEVER, patient care ALWAYS comes before charting! Take notes on a piece of paper as the what is happening with times, then when you do get a chance to sit down, chart away. But don't forget, patient care comes above anything else.
