Dilemma for the nurse manager: the stress of caring 'too much'.

Nurse managers are prime candidates for caring too much. Caring is an integral part of nursing. The act and art of caring in a relationship is one of the features that distinguishes nursing from other professions. Caring also is a positive trait for managers involved at the institutional level. When the new manager takes a brief case full of work home every night, does not take a vacation, shows up at work on the weekends, and thinks of little else besides the job it is likely that the manager is experiencing the dilemma of caring too much. Being this involved in work responsibilities can have devastating effects on relationships at home as well as at work. It is important for the nurse manager in this situation to initiate strategies that can put work responsibilities back in perspective so that work becomes one of a well-balanced assortment of interests and priorities.

Is adapting to others codependency or flexibility?

1. Many people use the word codependency without understanding its meaning. Codependency should be used to describe behaviors that have developed in a dysfunctional family in which priorities have become unbalanced, and energy is focused on ensuring that everything seems normal from the outside rather than focusing on the needs of individual family members. 2. Codependency may continue into a professional role and result in a manager who has low feelings of self-worth and a strong need for approval from others. 3. Flexibility is different from codependency. A flexible individual has strong and positive feelings of self-worth and is able to listen to opposing points of view and actively listen to others. Change and compromise are possible for this person.

Responding to irritable people in the OR setting.

1. Irritability may be caused by psychologic factors, physiologic factors, external factors, or a combination of factors. 2. If the nurse reacts to another individual's irritability by feeling inadequate, becoming irritable, or any other number of nontherapeutic responses, emotions may be escalated, interpersonal relationships may be irretrievably damaged, and productivity on the job may be diminished. 3. A therapeutic response to irritability can have a steadying effect and lead to a peaceful resolution; appropriate response by the nurse to facilitate positive communication, provide support, and promote effective resolution of problems can assist in pacifying tense situations when irritability becomes a problem.
