Day Shift vs Night Shift

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We’re back with another episode of Life In Scrubs, and our hosts Kristen and Maddi are talking about the Pro’s and Con’s of Day vs Night Shift! Since both of these nurses happen to work different shifts, they each give their perspective of what they like about their shifts and things to consider when choosing which shift may be best for you! Kristen, as our night shift nurse, gives great tips for adjusting your schedule to nights and the Pro’s of working nights as a new grad nurse! Maddi also shares insight into the fast pace of day shift, what it’s like coming on shift at 7 am, and needing to be prepared to do rounds at 8:30! Plus, she also asks the ever-important question, when night shifters wake up to go into work, do they eat breakfast foods or dinner foods!?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">01:05 Do you work Day Shift or Night Shift?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">03:40 What are Pro’s and Con’s of each shift for new grad nurses?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">09:30 Are there different personalities of Day Shift and NIght Shift nurses?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">11:15 Things to take into consideration when choosing which shift is best for you!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">13:00 How do you adjust your schedule as a night shift nurse?
