How are you rewarded at work
| back to top |
Posted 5 months ago I know that most of us do not feel we are rewarded for our efforts at work. i just read national statistics showing 62% of nurses say they do not feel rewarded. Let us take a little test ourselves. Let us write here how we have been rewarded at our work, let us see! We all get great responses from our patients that is what keeps us going, I am talking about rewards or positive input from bosses and peers at work.
I will start I once had my administrator give me a christmas card saying I was his best nurse and took wonderful care of our patients. This was a private note however. A busy RN is here |

| Posted 5 months ago My first rewards were the smiles and giggles I got from the residents. Second reward are thank yous from different persons involved in the care system. Third reward I got is the increase in my paycheck...and last but not the least...my being in the care industry is already a reward for me. |

| Posted 19 days ago my reward at work and i know this will sound crazy.... is when someone passes and i personally have their loved ones callin me on my cell to tell me how much they are going to miss me and the wonderful care that i had given to their loved one. this just happened on friday. i worked the night before and had a man actively dying. well he passed away on friday at 11am and not only did i receive a call from the nurse that relieved me to tell me the news but i also had his hospice nurse and his sister call me and leave me a voicemail to tell me thank you for everything. i feel like that when someone is at that stage, that means more to me than anything in the world. as far as rewards from my job and from that staff..... thats the biggest joke i have ever heard in my life! ;) |
