Tabs I Have Open as a Nurse 🎀👚

Being a 26 y/o nurse means having 10+ tabs open at all times—literally and mentally 😅

During my breaks (or whenever I get a second), here’s what’s usually open on my laptop:

🩺 EPIC – charting central

💊 Lexicomp – med lookups on the fly

📄 Hospital schedule portal – plotting PTO and looking at my weekly schedule

👜 Shopping tabs – retail therapy saves lives ok

🔍 Indeed & LinkedIn – because I’m always job hunting, let’s be real

Nursing + girl things = organized chaos 💅

What tabs are always open on your screen at work?

... Read moreIn today's fast-paced healthcare environment, nurses juggle a multitude of responsibilities, necessitating the use of various online resources to stay organized. Besides EPIC for charting and Lexicomp for medication lookup, many nurses find it essential to keep communication channels open. Tools like email and instant messaging apps allow quick consultations with colleagues or updates on patient care. Moreover, staying updated on job opportunities through platforms like Indeed and LinkedIn is crucial for career growth. This proactive job hunting helps nurses explore new positions that match their skills and aspirations. On lighter notes, online shopping tabs provide a much-needed break, aiding in retail therapy that helps alleviate job stress—a small indulgence that can boost morale. Social media and nursing forums are also valuable for connecting with peers and sharing insights. Nurses thrive in organized chaos, making their internet tabs an integral part of their workflow—it's all about balancing professionalism with personal care. What essential tools do you prefer? Let's share tips!
