<p class='_72b584a33b4aad1bec787e057cf07946-scss _8a9c5cc886805907de5073b8ebc3acd8-scss'> <span class='_37fcf6672889ad5b81fbce929a8fad5e-scss'>On this episode, we talk through a full patient case (2 patients) in the COVID ICU on a busy night. Unlike our last &quot;night in the life,&quot; this was the type of night where there was no time to get organized, review charts, or plan the day as we normally like to. This was a &quot;put out fires and keep your head above water&quot; type of shift that would not have been possible without an incredible team and a lot of asking for help. These are skills that all of us new nurses need to perfect and practice in our careers. There&apos;s a major difference between managing your time during a &quot;stable&quot; shift, and managing your time during a crazy shift. That is what we break down on today&apos;s episode. </span></p> <p class='_72b584a33b4aad1bec787e057cf07946-scss _8a9c5cc886805907de5073b8ebc3acd8-scss'> <span class='_37fcf6672889ad5b81fbce929a8fad5e-scss'>***My instagram handle has changed as I combined my personal and podcast pages.
