You arrive at 6:15, greet your coworkers, and find your patient assignment for the night which usually includes anywhere from 1 to 6 patients. Ladida, you then receive bedside reports, and chat a bit with your patients, asking them how they are, how their day went, etc. You then begin getting HS medication ready and boom, you are ready to start night duties! After doing said duties, you find yourself charting… Once everyone is tucked nicely in bed and the night duty list is complete, you now do everything in your power to NOT fall asleep.

Sound like fun? Depending what area of the hospital you work in as a nurse, it can be pretty hectic. So, if you are a nurse, or a medical student, or a doctor, or a professional in the medical field, you might fall in love with these memes as much as you love exhaustion. For more, here are some wholesome memes for a better day. Enjoy your night shifts!
