As a nurse supervisor, it's important to remember that you don't stop being a nurse just because you are in a management role. Being a strong nurse supervisor requires both strong clinical skills and strong leadership skills, and it is essential to know how to use both skills the right way in the right context.

"As a nurse supervisor, I've had to lead code teams and make difficult staffing situations. I also have to determine patient assignments, and I try to ensure they are assigned fairly and align with both the clinical and character strengths of my team."
I have learned to being very organized is essential. I prioritize patient care first and foremost to ensure patient safety. But I also delegate when appropriate so that I am able to complete my managerial tasks. I often have a to do list for each day to keep me on task.
