During the Working Phase, the nurse and the patient work to achieve the patient's full potential, and meet their goals for the relationship. A sign that the transition from the orientation phase to the working phase has been made, is if the patient can approach the nurse as a resource, instead of feeling a social obligation to the nurse (Peplau, 1997). The client fully trusts the nurse, and makes full use of the nurse's services and professional abilities.
A charge nurse does much of what you are already doing in terms of providing direct patient care. Itâs nursing -- taken up a notch -- to actually coordinate the activities of the unit and directs, organizes and assigns work to the nursing staff either on a particular unit or during an assigned shift.ltimately, a charge nurse is a leader. It is what you set your mind to accomplish. Career development requires clear goals (Charge Nurse), a timeline (within the next 12 months) a measurable plan of action (see above) and your supervisorâs support. Now, imagine where you might go from there!
