10 Ways to Make Yourself an Unfireable Nurse

Tania Khadder

5. Steer Clear of Gossip

News travels fast. Especially juicy news. Well, guess what. If you heard it, chances are, so did your DON. And if you play any part in its proliferation, chances are, your manager will know that too.

As tempting as it can be, don’t get sucked into office gossip. As soon as you do, you implicate yourself, make enemies, and come off as unprofessional. If someone else insists on telling you something, make sure it stops with you.

The workplace might sometimes feel like high school, but it isn’t (thank God!). The ramifications of being the department gossip are a lot more serious than detention or a missed birthday party invite.

    I did every one of those things and was laid off after 15 years of loyal service at a community hospital. Sometimes it just does not matter how good you are. I was shocked and sorrowed to find out I ws more loyal to my job than my employer was to me. It was just about money.

    a great attitude makes for a great employee. I make sure they KNOW I can be called in a pinch or when I am off I am willing to pitch in. THEY KNOW I will do my part without complaining. I am NO real life angel...but I can be depended on and will always do extra when asked.I got a personal "Thank You" for working for us card from the owners....and that is very rewarding and worthwhile. Be nice to EVERYONE...you never know who someone is!! I have even had other jobs try to "poach" me when I am in the field b/c I was nice to a stranger...one of the hiring mgrs unbeknownst to me!! No matter how onery someone is...kill them with kindness :)

    Another tip related to Nursing is to take preceptor training where available and be a preceptor and mentor for new hires. Also, don't get caught on NursingLink at work ;)

    #4 is especially "spot on". With layoffs and hiring freezes, having admin recognize your leadership qualities opens the way for potential promotions. Never hurts to be the "go to" guy or gal.
