As the puppies rely more and more on solid food, the mother should start naturally producing less milk. When the puppies begin eating the solid food, start weaning the mother off of puppy food back onto adult food. This should happen slowly. The first week, feed 3/4 puppy food and 1/4 adult. The next week, feed 1/2 and 1/2. The third week, feed 1/4 puppy and 3/4 adult. Then, she is ready for her full meal of adult food.
Despite literature saying the majority of nurses like 12-hour shifts, their research found they were more likely to leave their job than those who worked shorter shifts. Nurses underestimate the impact of working long shifts because the idea of working 3 days a week instead of 5 seems appealing, Stimpfel and colleagues wrote. Researchers found a relationship between shift length and patient satisfaction. When nurses worked shorter shifts, patients were more satisfied.
In terms of a daily schedule registered nurses can often be found working 5-8 hour days, 4-10 hour days or 3-12 hour days per week. RNâs that work 8 or 10 hour days typically work about 40 hours or so per week, however nurses that work 12 hour days may end up working around 36 hours per week. In either case both the 36 hour and 40 hour work weeks are generally considered full-time work for registered nurses. These hours do not include any voluntary/required overtime, which may be common in some health care facilities.
