The most important part of teamwork is for all individuals to realize that they should not expect to be the star. While everyone would like to be recognized for doing their jobs well, this is often not the case. I have learned to just focus on the patients and ensure that they receive the care they need when they need it. If this means I pitch in and help another nurse place a difficult IV line, that’s what it means. I maintain the mentality that every patient on the floor is potentially my patient, and that has done a world of good in helping me remember that we work as a team.
