The patients
Worst thing
Nepotism amongst the management staff - they often promote nurses with whom they’re friends rather than the best candidate.
Rude managers - don’t care nothing about their staff.
Attacked by clients, and then so short staffed that you have to continue the shift injured, and often have to fight to get paid
Called last minute to cover shifts and guilt tripped if you can’t come in.
