Case Study
Meet Mark.
Mark is excited to begin training as an emergency department nurse. On his first day, the nurse training him makes multiple negative remarks about the physician on duty. Dont ever make a suggestion, or shell ream you out. You have to walk on eggshells around her. Later, another nurse is showing Mark where the supplies are kept. She tells him, If you cant find things, dont call Central Supply because theyll get on your back about wasting resources. Its better to keep a few key things like IV start kits hidden so you can grab them when you need them.
Edit
Toward the end of his shift, a nurse assistant tells Mark a patient is vomiting violently in one of the examination rooms. However, Mark walks in to find the patient sitting up smiling and only a small amount of emesis in the basin. He hears muffled laughter coming from the hallway. Later in the shift, the nurse who is training Mark comments, Hope you dont mind a little kidding around. This job can get to you, and its good to laugh when we can.
The remainder of his training is free of other incidents and, overall, goes well.
