ViewsMany nurses struggle with finding the appropriate balance of caring for themselves and their families while simultaneously being productive in employment settings, and successful in engaging in academic course work. Most who have launched and maintained a successful career while maintaining this balance acknowledge that this is no easy task. By utilizing some preplanning and effective time management strategies career aspirations can be fulfilled while maintaining this essential balance.
Setting Goals
Setting short and long term goals and committing them to writing is often the best place to start.
Once these goals are established revisiting them can aid in determining if appropriate timeframes have been set. Once goals are identified place them in categories in a notebook under separate headings labeled care of self, family, work, and school. These initial planning stages do take some time and reflection but are worth the effort in the long run. Once both short and long term goals are committed to writing for each category, use visualization to imagine a snapshot of what this goal would look like if it were photographed once accomplished.
For example, if a long term goal is to complete a bachelor’s degree in 4 years imagine what that might look like as the degree is handed out at a graduation ceremony.
Having a clear vision of the endpoint or the accomplishment of a goal is helpful in both the planning and evaluation of the steps required along the way. Working backward from the endpoint list the steps along the path of goal achievement for each category: care of self, family, work, and school. Next, list the approximate time frames for each step. For example, under the category of self-care, a step might be to spend 30 minutes exercising. In the care of family 60 minutes may be allocated to meal preparation. Consider the relationships of the categories to each other and order them according to priority.
Time Management
Time management requires skills that allow individuals to set goals, and make decisions in order to better organize our lives; finding the best steps and strategies to maximize time management is equally important. Time management allows tasks to be placed in priority order from the most important to the least important and then setting a time plan or goal for meeting them.
Once priorities are established and time frames set use a month-at-a-glance type calendar to list the steps or tasks previously identified for each category. Each task can be color coated with a highlighter or a different color ink based on which major category it fits into.
For example, the care of family activities might be blue, work obligations written in red, and academics in purple. With practice, learning to set measurable goals and listing steps to accomplish them, becomes a form of project management of one’s life and career aspirations. Goals are then broken down by month and transcribed into a plan of action for each week.
Weekly goals are broken down by day and prioritized according to items of greatest to least importance. Each day incorporate activities for previously identified categories of care of self, family, work, and academics. Some flexibility must be used to dedicate more or less time in certain categories where needed. For example, if there is an important project due at work on a particular day, that might take a higher priority than a school assignment due in a week. Revisit the list throughout the day and cross out items that have been completed. At the beginning of each day begin a new list and carry over any tasks that did not get accomplished. Determine if unrealistic time frames were used while calendaring. Repeat the process for each day, week, and month. Periodically stop and evaluate the steps taken toward accomplishing goals. Determine if the steps toward goal achievement need to be modified, and celebrate any success!
Care of Self and Family
Each day ensure that time is set aside for the care of self and family. There is a return on investing in the time spent on selfperseveration and maintenance.
Get enough sleep, eat well-balanced meals, and engage in exercise. Take short refocus breaks after several hours of intense work. Gather together for family meals, engage in dialogue, and actively listen during interactions to facilitate good family dynamics. Sharing household chores is another way family members can be engaged in productive quality time. Working on school assignments at the kitchen table while children are doing homework provides an opportunity to role model persistence in completing academic goals, and instills the lifelong values of education.
Nursing can be a challenging yet satisfying career. With some planning and the use of effective time management strategies, nurses can better manage their careers and achieve professional development goals while balancing the care of themselves and their families.

This notification has caught me off guard. It is exciting to know that someone recognizes hard work and dedication. I have been working for my current employer for the last 3.5 years. My mother moved in with me and I became her primary caregiver. I had not called off during that time scheduling appointments around my work schedule, until recently when she fell, broke her hip and has since expired. So to have someone recognize dedication is meaningful.
Thank you
Hello, as a newbie to cryptocurrency trading, I lost a lot of money trying to navigate the market on my own, then in my search for a genuine and trusted trader/broker, i came across Trader Bernie Doran who guided and helped me retrieve my lost cryptocurrencies and I made so much profit up to the tune of $60,000. I made my first investment with $2,000 and got a ROI profit of $25,000 in less than 2 week. You can contact this expert trader Mr Bernie Doran via Gmail : BERNIEDORANSIGNALS@GMAIL.COM and be ready to share your experience, tell him I referred you
Just received my 5-year pin from Providence Health and Services. This has been the best job ever! Serving the elderly in his/her home helps the patient to remain in his/her home for as long as possible. With families today being torn between caring for aging parents, working full-time jobs, and raising kids, it is a wonderful feeling to take some of the burden off them. ElderPlace schedules appointments, makes home visits, draws labs, cares for wounds, monitors vital signs, and develops a therapeutic relationship with the patients. A much needed service in this busy world!
I worked for Brooklyn Gardens for fourteen years, I am very happy, serving the Geriatric population an enjoy listening to their stories and at least being present at the end of their lives.This career has made me a strong person, so that I can even be strong for my family members when the needs arises.
I worked in a large metropolitan hospital as a Cardiovascular Intensive Care Nurse for 13 yrs. From there, I worked many other jobs, including geriatric care, prison care, and home care. I have been a nurse for 32 yrs. Bedside nursing has always been my passion. I moved to rural Wisconsin about 10 yrs ago, and found medical care very much behind the large cities. It’s such a shame!
Thank You for including me in your ratings,

With over 40 years of continuous and uninterrupted to Veterans and service members I still find joy in my work. I began my career of service as a nurses aide in a Catholic hospital on a geriatric unit and decided early on helping and caring was my passion and purpose. I found my time spent as a cardiothoracic surgery nurse the most gratifying. Nursing is still a noble profession. Although technology has introduced new techniques and methods to assist with the practice of nursing there is nothing more comforting than a gentle touch and warm smile to help in the healing process.
Thank you for including me in your review.

My cardiac experience as well as other surgeries has also help me with my life missions to help those around the world who need a warm touch and compassion of giving your heart felt love to those in need. God has made me aware that helping others is my mission in life for families,friends,and those in need. Thank you for including me in your review.

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.

READ CAREFULLY
A MESSAGE FOR VICTIMS OF FRAUD/SCAM
It’s becoming a problem how people are being victimized by scam/fraud and sadly enough, it’s kind of hard to find someone to trust with the recovery of the funds or whatever have been lost. I’m afraid of getting scammed again especially by clicking any link I come across in the name of investment or recovery of lost funds. Two months ago, I was duped an appreciable amount of the BTC I have. Hired a recovery expert to get my funds back, but unfortunately, I was scammed in the process again. With so much feeling of frustration, I decided to give up everything I lost. Although I reported the case to the FBI but still, no positive outcome. I was so worried and frustrated because it was all I had in my savings plus it feels so hard for me to start saving again. I told everyone I knew about the incident, hoping that help might come. Two weeks later I read about BLISS PARADOX RECOVERY in a magazine, little did I know it was a redemption I found. I decided to take the risk again by consulting them about my lost BTC. I emailed them concerning my issues, and luckily for me, I got a reply from them that same day. Honestly speaking, I never thought I could ever get a positive outcome from the lost BTC. But they got back what I lost within 8 hours. OMG, it still feels like a dream, something too good to be true. I’m so overwhelmed sharing this story because I know there’s someone out here with a similar problem seeking help. You can hire BLISS PARADOX RECOVERY, a licensed hack expert for recovery of any fraud. I would like to share the contact details you can reach out to anytime you need help or someone you know who needs help.
