Great tips. I just got burnout with my first job as an RN and quit. I know it was the wrong thing to do but what is done is done. So with my next job I will be putting these tips to great use.

nice article, I'm a new second career RN and I feel the advice here is sound. I would like to add for us new nurses, seek out a trusted mentor and for those experienced nurses nurture your proteges. This, i believe will go a long way in reducing carer mistakes.

Great article! Nice to see this advice here so it doesn't have to be learned through the 'school of hard knocks.' It's great to switch things up to experience the range of specialties out there, but sticking with particular specialty to gain experience is valuable too. Don't forget about long-term goals when just trying to get your foot in the door! And definitely give travel nursing a shot. -Jim http://www.advantagenursing.com

After being in the nursing field for several years, i can definitely say that all of these seven mistakes are very much true....from burnout to back-bitting. Be the best, do not talk about things that don't relate to nursing, and always check your steps.

I have already made most of these mistakes . I wish someone told me before that they were mistakes.yeah and there should a nine don't let agency and travel nursing dilute your ability to prove the experience you have and stay versatile - experience can outdate like a loaf of bread at the supermarket depending on who's evaluating it .
