I can chart perfectly in the middle of a shift falling apart around me, every box ticked, every note timed. But I went into nursing to take care of people, not to feed a computer. Some shifts I spend more time facing the screen than facing my patients, and it makes me quietly angry about what this job turned into.
More people experience this than they realize.
You chart flawlessly, but you resent how much of nursing became feeding the record instead of caring for people.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
