Non-clinical manager help

[sdramsey]

I recently started working for a company that I love. But I have a problem. The non-clinical manager tries to manage me all the time. I am on the younger end of the spectrum in terms of age in my field and I am some-what new to nursing in general. I am a female and so is this manager. Regardless, I exceed expectations and I am more than capable of working within my scope of practice without being delegated. Period. I want to be as professional as possible with this situation and I feel as if it has gotten to a point where I am about to snap. I feel as if my job description as the director of clinical care does not matter to her. She is often the very thing preventing me from implementing protocols. She refuses to compromise with me over certain things that would make any nurse want to pull their hair out over. It's almost as if she does not take me seriously or my words hold no value to her. I sense a power struggle for her but for me, I am just trying to adhere to my responsibilities as a RN. I cannot instill in her head enough the responsibilities I am accountable for by law. She does not get it. I do not know how to explain this to her and to be honest, I strongly believe it may take someone higher up to hold her undivided attention long enough to ensure a complete understanding. I have been nothing but professional with her. Is it because I am the same age as her children? Is it because I am an attractive girl in her opinion? Is it because I have not been a nurse for years and years? I always feel like I am perceived and treated differently because the way I look and my age. It's as if people hesitate to believe I am educated. Everyday, I put in that extra effort to assure that I dress, speak, and act in a respectful, efficient, and professional way in hopes to make up for what my looks take away. I intend on approaching the medical director but do not know exactly the best way to bring up the topic. The last thing I want is for this to turn into something messy. I want to collaborate with her but above all else, I need respect from her. Any advice from anyone would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

Could you give more specific examples? Is it only you that she is harassing?
Before going to the medical director take a good, long look at yourself and see if there's anything you may be doing that can be irritating to her. Have you ever tried confronting her about this, in a calm, professional manner?
I would tell you first to try to speak to her directly, and if that doesn't work then you can approach the medical director.

Hi sdramsey...we don't really know the reason why she is acting that way towards you, which is why, for me, the best way to deal with this problem first is to communicate with her! ask her why is she treating you like that in the best way that you can! You will not lose anything if you're going to do it anyway! I am not really sure about this, but you are not directly under her command right? You've mentioned that you are a director of clinical care????I suggest don't go to the medical director right away!That's not gonna be the wisest thing to do at this point

You said that she is a NON-CLINICAL manager and you are CLINICAL ONE, to understand? BUT you are "new to nursing in general". I believe based on what you said that THIS IS the key.

How many years AT BEDSIDE you have and in what clinical areas? If you don't have ENOUGH bedside experience the oldy one knows by experience that you need to be guided

May be, you know how women are, she could fell a little somehow about your beautifulness miss "young and restless" lol, but definitely IS NOT this reason.

I saw beautiful ugly ones and ugly beautiful ones.

So go back on your resume and search there...what pissed her off is there...

It might be difficult to be in your position! But don't get intimidated, rather show her why you deserve to be in a clinical manager. I actually agree with ZuziRN!!!

Guys,6 ways to dress cute this winter
Guys, the winter is coming, do you wanna to leave a cute impression on others? here are some advice you may feel useful:
1. Pull-overs
Long and warm, especially when paired with jeans or skinny cords and boots. The length serves to keep your hips warm, and with a look like this you can easily take it from weekend brunch to casual Friday at work.
2. Leggings and Pantyhose: Take your favorite spring and summer skirt or dress and make it wearable during the coldest days of the year. Sporting the added layer covers your legs and saves you from having to buy another pair of pants. I love the wool and patterned options for added texture.
3. Boots: Whether they are tall or short, pretty much anything these days can be warmed with boots. Giving you lift from the cold ground and adding an extra sheath of insulation around your ankles and toes, boots look good with everything. Except sweatpants.
4. Infinity Scarves
Functional and absolutely adorable, the infinity scarf looks good on every woman and can be found in a million different cuts, lengths, and colors.
5. Hats
Hats can be cute! Opt for ones that aren

Advice For New Dads
Are you really going to to be dad? Are you really prepare everything needed to b a good dad? Yerterday you was a single guy, you dated with girls, when you hanged out, people saw you and greeted:"hey, buddy; hey mam", but today you are a father, you need to take care of a baby, and he or she calls you dad!!!
Just a joke, don't worry, we have some tips for the first dad to be a nice dad, these tips are all from the seasoned dad.
1. Patience: Lots and lots of patience (and then even more patience). Patience is needed for both baby and mommy as this new relationship with your child will, for the foreseeable future, change the household relationship and dynamic. Everyone is the house will be learning and transitioning. Take deep breaths and enjoy the ride!
2. Understanding: The world is not about you anymore... The baby cannot understand you and cannot tell you what they want. Similarly, a new mother will likely not be able to express the tremendous emotional swings they are likely to go through as a new mother. As a new father, this will be difficult to understand and reconcile. It is a new fathers job to be understanding and supportive to help mom get through this and to establish a trusting family bond.
3. Flexibility: You will need to be flexible as your old schedule has just gone the way of the Dodo bird. Needs will arise without notice and at any time of day. Mom will generally need all her free time for catching up on sleep so guess who gets to run out for Mylicon drops in the wee hours of the morning?!
4. Courage: Handling a new baby can cause great anxiety. It's somewhat like holding a jello mold only much more fragile! A new father must embrace handling the baby as much as possible. Mom will be the parent gravitates to as they build trust with the one who nourishes them. Handling the baby will not only allow them to bond with you but it will also give mom a few minutes to close her eyes and take the rest she needs.
5. Individuality (as a couple): Your parenting style should be yours. Take what you will from books, from other parents, or from other sources but do not accept it as gospel. Your child is yours and there are none other like it. Accordingly, one works for one doesn't necessarily work for another.

About the sunscreen for kids, 3 misunderstandings you should know but don't
Well, well, well about the sunscreen, almost everyone is familiar,and as the time comes, more and more people go into a conversation about sunscreen safety and issues, we will tell you 3 respects which most people don't know, but definitely should.
1. Spraying is not better and safer that slathering, you really should know this.
Maybe your son or daughter would rather hope your quick spray, not them, even you, as their parent hope so, but don't, never ever do that again, we'll tell you why! Spraying means you are doing a stupid thing, that is to say you break down the product into tiny piece, you creat so many inhalation, which probably cause lung damage.
2. You can't connect higher SPF with good protection
It's possible that many people has the common sense the highest SPF,the better it is. Not entirely. The truth is Increases in SPF only improve protection slightly (e.g. SPF 30 blocks 97% of UVB rays and SPF 50 blocks 98%). After 50 there
