Nurses are used to working shifts – nursing was one of the first professions to require that work schedules be matched to the needs of patients.

Betsy Connolly, President of Working Nights is going to be chatting on-line with nurse members of NurseTogether.com. Topics will include a review of circadian rhythms as well as practical tips for managing work/life balance when working shifts, particularly roating ones.
